THE WORDS TO SAY IT by Marie Cardinal, translated by Pat Goodheart,
Van Vactor & Goodheart Publisher, is in the words of Bruno
Bettelheim "the best account of a psychoanalysis as seen and
experienced by the patient." It is the story of a healing set
against the events in Algeria. Taught in over seven hundred and
fifty colleges and universities as a text, and in over fifteen
different departments, literature at Harvard University and in
courses in medical ethics at Yale Medical School. It has received
rave reviews in The London Sunday Times and the New York Times Book
Review, The Atlantic and the Washington Post, among others.
According to Michael Wood .."..THE WORDS TO SAY IT is a novel, not
an advertisement for psychoanalysis, and the considerable virtues
are literary rather than clinical. It is impecably written.... full
of the most delicate notations, recalling with great tenderness the
Algeria of the narrator's childhood: fragrences, faces, sunlight,
streets, rooms, a whole mediterranean world of wind....Above all it
is a book which finds the words it needs. Words can be guides too,
escape routes marked on tattered old maps, and here the novel and
the analysis come together since both are journeys towards a
language that is sane and shared, and visibly free of the worst of
the darkness."
