Love's Executioner Details
The collection of ten absorbing tales by master psychotherapist Irvin D. Yalom uncovers the mysteries, frustrations, pathos, and humor at the heart of the therapeutic encounter. In recounting his patients' dilemmas, Yalom not only gives us a rare and enthralling glimpse into their personal desires and motivations but also tells us his own story as he struggles to reconcile his all-too human responses with his sensibility as a psychiatrist. Not since Freud has an author done so much to clarify what goes on between a psychotherapist and a patient.

Reviews
Irvin Yalom's books are so pleasant to read. It's like eating a bag of crisps. Except for the extra cholesterol. On the opposite, his books make you grow healthier. They definitely make you want to become a therapist, an old and wise one! It took me a while to realise this book was written 20 years ago. Nothing seems out of date, except the absence of cell phones and google searches. These 10 short stories are excellent bedtime stories I would recommend to anyone who's not afraid to look in a mirror.
