AFTER OEDIPUS

Author: Guido Buffoli

“It is not clear whether love comes before desire or vice versa, but it is better not to underestimate children’s love, which is full of dreams, so strong that you can see it in the eyes of a new-born baby looking at his or her mother ecstatically.”

About the book

After Oedipus, by Dr Buffoli describes The Oedipus complex through the myths, and the stories of some patients.

The book is a mix between an essay and a professional and personal diary, written with a focus on the consistency of the contents and on the neutrality of the analysis of the different points of view.
