The Shaking Woman, or A History of My Nerves by Siri Hustvedt

4.0

This was a very interesting read and Hustvedt has a way of making neuroscience and psychiatry understandable for someone who knows not a lot of things about these topics. I really enjoyed how she wrote about Freud as a scientist and was constantly debunking the myth of the sex-and-mother-obsessed couch psychoanalyst everyone has.

This book was recommended to me and I am very very grateful for that. Can't wait to read more of Hustvedt's work.
