Dark At The End Of The Tunnel

by Christopher Bollas

This novella's hero, the psychoanalyst, is a comic figure compelled by patients, friends, and circumstances to think about profound psychological, philosophical, and theological issues "after the Catastrophe", an undefined moment in recent time that he believes has irreversibly changed the moral course of western culture.
Dark At The End Of The Tunnel is a tale of human frailty set against the dark movement of world events.

Reviews

[Sohum · Rating 3 out of 5]

There is surely a lot to enjoy about this book, but it feels slightly underbaked as a novel and not quite dense or artful enough to be an essay.
