From the author of "Missing Out" and "On Kindness", Britain's leading psychoanalyst examines how the things we don't mean or perhaps want to forget often turn out to reveal more about our unconscious lives. Side effects are things we do not intend. Phillips urges us to question the conscious pursuit of happiness, explaining that by refusing to admit and explore life's difficulties, we live only half-lives. Through the unique and penetrating exploration of literature, Phillips also shows what great novelists have to tell us about ourselves. And "Side Effects" enlightens and fascinates regarding literature, as well as life, mapping our limits as humans and helping to shape our lives.
