Freud's 17-year-old case study "Dora" is well known in the
literature of psychoanalysis. Yet few know the full story-told here
for the first time-of this notable woman, who walked out on Freud
after three months and, in a sense, cured herself. Born into an
important Jewish-Austrian family, Ida Bauer Adler suffered from
"petite hysteria"-loss of voice, difficulty breathing, migraines,
fainting spells-brought on by the overt sexuality of her relatives.
Growing up in a home beset with syphilis and tuberculosis, she
overcame her father's marital infidelity, her mother's so-called
housewife psychosis and her own seduction by the husband of her
father's mistress. She married, raised a son, started a small
business, stayed close with her brother, Otto, leader of the
Austrian Socialist party, and survived Hitler's invasion of Vienna.
Eventually, she made her way to the U.S. to rejoin her famous son,
maestro of the San Francisco Opera House.
