In this richly woven study of preoedipal erotic experience, Harriet
Kimble Wrye and Judith Welles focus on patients for whom early
mothering did not sustain the flowering and subsequent
transformation of early erotic desire. Such patients remain under
the sway of a primitive eroticism that is often sadistic and
invariably perverse. Successful analytic work requires accepting
and containing the patient's primitive erotic needs; reconstructing
the mother-infant narratives that sustain these needs; and
mobilizing the patient's transformative desire to grow out of
maternal eroticism to an adult love of self and others.
