Reviews for Freud's Memory
'White exposes the complexity and "unfinishability" of Freud's project. His scrupulously argued and lucidly written book discusses Freud without the aid of psychoanalytic language. Hence it refreshingly discloses, with great astuteness and sensitivity, just how strange a writer and thinker Freud is. It can be enthusiastically recommended.' Journal of European Studies
