Overview

This is the autobiography of a woman who has had Jungian, Freudian and Kleinian analyses. Nini Herman's life has been an odyssey - full of familial, historical and personal distress, including the vicissitudes of being a German Jew in the 1930s, the death of a child and a constant search for resolution of deep issues from her own childhood. She takes the reader through her experiences of analysis in relation to her problems and her reflections as a daughter, woman, parent, doctor and psychotherapist. This book may be read on many levels. Not only does it tell the story of Nini Herman's extraordinary life, but it also encompasses, with unusual clarity, the assumptions and the experience of Kleinian psychoanalysis.
