Sie ist fünfunddreißig, Krankenschwester in der Unfallstation, und vor den Schrecken der Welt dreht sich ihr täglich die Seele um. Sie hat jedes Beruhigungsmittel probiert: Ehe und Mutterschaft, Feminismus und Gott, Arbeit, Alkohol und wahre Liebe – doch nach einer Weile überkommt das innere Schwarzgrau sie immer wieder. Kurz, Caroline, deren Beruf und Geschichte das Helfen ist, muß eingestehen, daß sie selbst Hilfe braucht. In der Psychotherapeutin Hannah findet sie eine ältere Frau, die sich als so stark, so hartnäckig und so einfühlsam erweist wie sie selbst. Gemeinsam erkunden sie einen Weg, Carolines depressiven Blick, der nur düstere Töne wahrnahm, zu öffnen für die Farben der wirklichen Welt. Part of book project. Soap opera. Dated. There could be spoilers. The therapy goes so fast & so easy. The main character's parents are really dismaying & one-sided; maybe therapy is easier if your parents are completely loony. (I think the problem comes in when they are both genuinely destructive and genuinely loving.) I guess it is just a book.... sin reseñas | añadir una reseña
Caroline is a giver--as an ER nurse, as devoted lover to her partner, Diane, as a divorced mother of two boys, and as the daughter of world-class do-gooders--but can she accept help from others and still be herself? When trauma cases in the ER leave Caroline emotionally paralyzed and her relationship with her partner, Diane, breaks down, she knows its time to take a look at her life and do something she'd never imagined: go to therapy. Her therapist, Hannah, knows a thing or two about sacrifice and pain. A former war bride, Hannah may live a seemingly cozy domestic life with her beloved husband and two grown children, but she can't forget her own harrowing past. As she and Caroline work together, each comes to understand and admire the resilient woman sitting before her. A poignant look at the human need for acceptance, Other Women is a thoughtful novel about how a life examined is worth living. This ebook features an illustrated biography of Lisa Alther, including rare photos from the author's personal collection. No se han encontrado descripciones de biblioteca. |
