Description
"A stunning and moving look at the many- layered complexities of intimacy" (Kirkus Review) by the bestselling author of Listening to Prozac
How do we choose our partners? How well do we know them? How do mood states affect our assessment of them and theirs of us? What does "working on a relationship" truly entail? When should we try to improve a relationship, and when should we leave? Leading psychiatrist Peter Kramer presents an intelligent, compassionate eye on the complexities of partnerships and why intimacy is so difficult for us. With the art of a novelist and the skill of a brilliant psychiatrist, Kramer addresses advice seekers struggling with such complex questions
Equally at home with Shakespeare, Emerson, and Kierkegaard as it is with Freud and Jung, Should You Leave is a literary tour de force from a uniquely insightful observer and a profoundly resonant and helpful approach to resolving dilemmas of the heart.
