Trade ReviewPowerful and intuitive penetration into the human mind and soul. A masterpiece. -- Deepak Chopra
I will never be the same person after reading these strong, beautiful, penetrating poems that lift the lids on the trash cans of our repressions. I loved the language. These are the scalpel-sharp words of a poet who happens to be a psychiatrist, and not the other way around. They are an antidote to the many saccharine expressions of psychology and spirituality that have so much appeal in a time of cultural slack. Read them and regain possession of your life. -- Thomas Moore, PhD, author of Care of the Soul
