Synopsis: Through the life stories of women such as Camille Claudel, Virginia Woolf, Katherine Mansfield, Anne Sexton, Suzanne Farrell and others and through clinical case studies, Susan Kavaler-Adler offers penetrating insights into the nature of the creative process. Kavaler-Adler contrasts unsuccessful psychological treatments with object-relations therapy that is able to resolve the pathological narcissism of creative addiction and allow the emergence of healthy modes of self-expression.
About the Author: Susan Kavaler-Adler is the Founding Director of the Objects Relations Institute for Psychotherapy and Psychoanalysis in New York and the author of The Compulsion to Create (Routledge, 1993).
