With its searing insights, this slim volume is an essential text with many virtues. From accounting for the Dora case as a roman à clef to providing a robust intellectual history of psychoanalysis, the book is a rich canvas of a century of interpretations. It is also an indispensable map of gender and sexuality, with its changing landmarks clearly signposted, and, above all, it paints a granular clinical picture of the most compelling case that continues to haunt and remold psychoanalysis.
