From Anxiety to Zoolander is a collection of writings on
psychoanalytic themes. Each text was originally delivered as a
talk, and the book aims to retain the informality and directness of
the spoken word. While many of the chapters focus on clinical
questions, they also speak about art, comedy, fashion, fame and
fiction. Freudian and Lacanian theories are central, but the book
as a whole is far from doctrinaire, with all areas of
psychoanalytic thinking being up for discussion. Clinical topics
include acting out, narcissism, gender, transference, diagnosis,
and the Oedipus complex, tracing ideas through Freud and the
post-Freudians, and examining their relevance to the contemporary
psychoanalytic clinic. Non-clinical topics include Louise
Bourgeois's notes on her analysis, stand-up comedy, Paris Hilton's
televised friendship auditions, and Ben Stiller's penetrating
stupidity in Zoolander 2. While each essay is self-contained, the
book argues overall for the continued relevance of Freudian ideas
in the treatment of psychic suffering, as well as in the
interpretation of cultural phenomena.
