あらすじ・解説

A psychologist explores the intersection of love and madness through the riveting stories of the patients he has treated

In The Incurable Romantic, Frank Tallis recounts the extraordinary stories of patients who are, quite literally, madly in love: A woman becomes utterly convinced that her dentist is secretly infatuated with her and drives him to leave the country; a man destroys his massive fortune through trysts with more than 3,000 prostitutes - because his ego requires that they fall in love with him; a beautiful woman's pathological jealousy destroys the men who love her.

Along the way, we learn a great deal about the history of psychiatry and the role of neuroscience in addressing disordered love.

Elegantly written and infused with deep sympathy, The Incurable Romantic shows how all of us can become a bit crazy in love.

批評家のレビュー

"Thoughtful...Tallis has a graceful narrative style, easily incorporating brief digressions on deeper philosophical issues such as free will versus determinism. Most importantly, his book is suffused with compassion, avoiding facile categorization and struggling to understand and empathize with his patients as people in pain." (Publishers Weekly)

"Moving, at times disturbing, and revealing - like having a productive, revelatory discussion with a trusted friend." (Kirkus Reviews)

"Writer and subject were rarely better matched. The pain and destructiveness of obsessive love takes many fascinating forms. In this superb study Frank Tallis brings a lifetime's clinical experience and wise reflection to a condition that, by its own strange routes, leads us into the very heart of love itself. This is a brilliant, compelling book." (Ian McEwan)
