How can we understand the pull towards that which we fear:
psychosis?
In this thought provoking book, Abensour proposes the idea of a
temptation towards psychosis rather than a regression, as a
response to the hatred or denial of the subject s origins. She
shares her reflections on her psychoanalytic work with psychotic
patients focusing on their struggle to achieve a coherent sense of
a self that can inhabit a shared world. Abensour locates this
struggle within the universal human struggle to achieve a balance
between what we can and cannot allow ourselves to know about the
reality of death and of our insignificance in the world.
