Beschreibung
From the author of Missing Out and On Kindness Britain's pre-eminent psychoanalyst examines how the things we don't mean or mean perhaps to forget prove to be those that are often most telling about our unconscious lives.

Side effects are things we do not intend. Phillips intends for us to question our conscious pursuit of happiness explaining that in refusing to admit and explore life's down sides we can only be living half lives. And through his unique and incisive exploration of literature Phillips also demonstrates what the great novelists have to tell us about ourselves.

Both illuminating and fascinating on literature as well as life Side Effects maps our edges as human beings and in doing so goes some way to helping give shape to our lives.
