Catherine Millot is a writer and psychoanalyst who teaches at the University of Paris-VIII.
This beautiful poetic book is not only a unique portrait of Lacan by someone who knew him better than others, but is in itself a remarkable literary and autobiographical work. It draws us into the adventure of psychoanalysis, into a relationship with all its complexities, and into an era, described with an elegance and precision that we find so rarely today. A remarkable work that will find a readership far beyond psychoanalytic circles. Darian Leader, Psychoanalyst and author Millot's elegantly written little volume, winner of the Prix de litt rature Andr -Gide, serves as refreshing antidote to those who pigeonhole Lacan as writer of gibberish and irresponsible id. The Spectator A love letter celebrating someone Millot sees as an extraordinary and implacable genius. Times Higher Education The portrait of Lacan which Millot offers is of an insatiable mind, always open to the world with the unbounded curiosity of a child.... the reader comes away learning much about what made Lacan tick. Millot is....a fantastic writer, and any reader with even a passing interest in Lacan would do well to pick up a copy of her book. Psychology Today
