More About Books

What was the last book that made you cry?I don't remember. Lately the books I read are not the kind that would make me cry. The last book that made you laugh?Imust be brain dead this morning because none comes to mind right now. The last book that made you furious?The Overweight Patient: A psychological Approach to Understanding and Working With Obesity.  I hated this book. The author, who is a Transactional analyst, comes across as smug and know-it-all. It is a blame-the-patient book. What’s the best love story you’ve ever read?Like Water for Chocolate. Are there any psychotherapists that you think are also particularly good writers? What are your favorite books on psychotherapy?There are indeed wonderful writers among psychotherapists. Barbara Stevens Sullivan is a favorite of mine. I mentioned her latest book in my last post.  And if you could meet a character from literature, who would it be?A friend of mine, Janice MacDonald, writes mysteries, terrific mysteries set in Edmonton, Alberta where she lives. And as it happens I am a character in her most recent book, Hang Down Your Head. So I know one!
