A woman's devotion to the man she loves is a classic romantic theme: a twist to the traditional tale is when the beloved man is Sigmund Freud & the woman is Minna Bernays, his sister-in-law. Set in turbulent turn-of-the-century Vienna, & based on 15 years of extensive research & discovery of little-known facts Bernays' relationship to Freud; this book is dedicated to Freud's wife's sister, Minna, who will be silenced no longer. Minna Bernays played an integral part in developing many of Freud's theories of psychoanalysis, but her role has been hidden from history by the Freud family. Written in fictionalized diary format, but following painstakingly reconstructed actual events over the period 1895-1900, the passionate love of Minna & Sigmund emerges. Not only a highly intelligent woman, Minna was also young, attractive, passionate, & willing to commit herself to a man she could never fully possess. Minna's relationship with Dr. Freud ranks among the great love stories in history. Kathleen Daniels retraced the routes of Sigmund & Minna's travels through Austria, Italy & Switzerland. Daniels maintains an extensive library of Freud's work.
