The Day I Went Missing: A True Story von Jennifer Miller
A cautionary tale that poses interesting questions. The author enters therapy to deal with issues of isolation, trust and intimacy. The therapist is a con artist who gains her complete trust, strips her of thousands of dollars, then mysteriously dies. The irony is that the whole horrific experience has the desired effect of making her more open, self-accepting and willing to show vulnerability. Extremely well written and hard to put down.
too much of a downer for me. Psychiatrist is a fake.

Critics liken it to a Highsmith novel, and I'm inclined to agree. Miller's portrait of her therapist is so parallel to an everyday Tom Ripley. Her memoir also a realistic look into the day-to-day life of a woman screenwriter (at the time, she's a TV sitcom writer) trying to survive the prevalent sexism that goes on in Lalaland. I used to want to get into that business. After reading this, I'm glad I'm doing what I'm currently doing.… (mehr)
