Irvin D. Yalom
The collection of 10 absorbing tales by master psychotherapist Irvin D. Yalom uncovers the mysteries, frustrations, pathos, and humor at the heart of the therapeutic encounter. In recounting his patients' dilemmas, Yalom not only gives us a rare and enthralling glimpse into their personal desires and motivations but also tells us his own story as he struggles to reconcile his all-too-human responses with his sensibility as a psychiatrist. Not since Freud has an author done so much to clarify what goes on between a psychotherapist and a patient.
The audio version of the book includes an exclusive interview with Dr. Yalom.

The only downside was the production quality was truly terrible and distracting. The stories are a bit intense and have really profound endings that deserve a moment. However, there isn't even a normal pause at the end. Generally, when starting new chapters, Audible does a good job of inserting a bit of a break, even if just one or two seconds. The lack of transition in this recording was like one long run on sentence. The last word of the chapter was barely out of the narrator's mouth when the start of the next chapter began. It was jarring, and I often had to pause the book and give myself a moment.
There were also obvious splices where words were inserted later, so the entire flow and tone of the narration would jump on a word. This may have been because the narrator pronounced so many of the psychology terms incorrectly, but they didn't do a very smooth fix. It wasn't awful, just something that I noticed as slightly distracting.
