Freud's Mistress

â€œA thrilling story of seduction, betrayal, and loss, Freudâ€™s Mistress will titillate fans of Memoirs of a Geisha and The Other Boleyn Girl.â€â€”Booklist

In fin-de-siÃ¨cle Vienna, it was not easy for a woman to find fulfillment both intellectually and sexually.

But many believe that Minna Bernays was able to find both with one manâ€”her brother-in-law, Sigmund Freud.

At once a portrait of two sistersâ€”the rebellious, independent Minna and her inhibited sister, Marthaâ€”and of the compelling and controversial doctor who would be revered as one of the twentieth centuryâ€™s greatest thinkers, Freudâ€™s Mistress is a novel rich with passion and historical detail and â€œa portrait of forbidden desire [with] a thought-provoking central question: How far are you willing to go to be happy?â€*
