'I was born in Washington, DC, June 13, 1931, of parents who
immigrated from Russia shortly after the first world war. Home was
the inner city of Washington - a small apartment atop my parents'
grocery store on First and Seaton Street. During my childhood,
Washington was a segregated city, and I lived in the midst of a
poor, black neighborhood. Life on the streets was often perilous.
Indoor reading was my refuge and, twice a week, I made the
hazardous bicycle trek to the central library at Seventh and K
streets to stock up on supplies'. Irvin Yalom is a gifted and
lyrical writer whose memoir traces his life, from the apartment
above his parents' grocery store to a world stage via the intimacy
of his consulting room. The memoir includes his self-analysis and
is interwoven with vignettes from patients whose stories have
played such a central role in his life. For his legion of fans, and
anyone interested in the human psyche, this book is not to be
missed.
