\u003cp\u003e\u0026lsquo;There was a time when I felt that I had grasped Lacan\u0026rsquo;s essential being from within - that I had gained, as it were, an apperception of his relation to the world, a mysterious access to that intimate place from which sprang his relation to people and things, and even to himself. It was as if I had slipped within him.\u0026rsquo; \u003cbr /\u003e\u003cbr /\u003eIn this short book, Catherine Millot offers a richly evocative reflection on her life as analysand and lover of the greatest psychoanalyst since Freud. Dwelling on their time together in Paris and in Lacan\u0026rsquo;s country house in Guitrancourt, as well as describing their many travels, Millot provides unparalleled insights into Lacan\u0026rsquo;s character as well as his encounters with other major European thinkers of the time. She also sheds new light on key themes, including Lacan\u0026rsquo;s obsession with the Borromean knot and gradual descent into silence, all enlivened by her unique perspective. \u003cbr /\u003e\u003cbr /\u003eThis beautifully written memoir, awarded the André Gide Prize for Literature, will be of interest to anyone wishing to understand the life and character of a thinker who continues to exert a wide influence in psychoanalysis and across the humanities and social sciences.\u003c/p\u003e |
