The Examined Life

In "The Examined Life," psychoanalyst Stephen Grosz draws on over 25 years of experience and more than 50,000 hours of conversations to present a thought-provoking collection of stories that capture the complexities of everyday life. From mundane moments to extreme situations, such as a patient pointing an unloaded gun at a police officer, these narratives offer profound insights into human behavior and the emotional world we navigate. Engaging and sensitive, Grosz’s storytelling invites readers to reflect on their own lives and the motivations that drive us all.
