Frink and Freud | Péju, Pierre

In 1909, while on a fundraising lecture tour in America, Sigmund Freud met Horace Frink, an early disciple of his theories of psychoanalysis, whose traumatic childhood and complicated personal life later cast a shadow over Freud's professional career - and came close to destroying his reputation. This little-known and ultimately tragic true story of two divorces, three deaths and a menage a quatre, as well as the questionable motives behind Freud's involvement in it, is the subject of this groundbreaking collaboration between artist Lionel Richerand and philosopher Pierre Peju.
