Summary of Irvin D. Yalom's Love's Executioner

Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Book Preview:

#1 Thelma was in love with her therapist, and she told me so in the first session. She handed me two old photos of a young beautiful dancer and a 60-year-old stolid woman. Thelma had not tended to her appearance in years.

#2 I had difficulty imagining the shabby old woman having an affair with her therapist, but I kept my opinions to myself. Thelma raved about her therapist, Matthew, for several minutes. She said he had so much caring and loving.

#3 Thelma met with Matthew for coffee one afternoon in San Francisco. They had met in weekly segments of precisely fifty minutes, no more, no less. But that evening, they slipped outside everyday reality and pretended that there was nothing unusual about talking personally or sharing coffee or dinner.

#4 Thelma was in love with a man named Matthew, who she met in San Francisco. She was devastated when he suddenly cut off all contact with her. She became obsessed with why. Why would he not see her or even speak to her on the phone.
