Publisher's summary

What Does a Woman Want?

A historical novel about the relationship between Sigmund Freud and the five most important women in his life.

1. Martha Bernays, wife and mother to six children.

2. Minna Bernays, Martha's sister, lover, and one of the components of the ménage à trois, together with her sister and Freud. This relationship has been lately confirmed with historical evidence and has been one of the best kept secrets in Freud´s life. Martha Bernays and her sister Minna lived together 40 years in Vienna with Freud’s six children, sharing the love of one of the scientists that made the greatest contribution to the change of sexual behaviors during the XX century.

3. Anna Freud. The daughter of Sigmund, a well-known children psychoanalyst, never married, underwent treatment with her own father, against the rules set by the founder of the movement, allegedly to heal her lesbianism, considered at that time to be a disease.

4. Lou Andrea Salome. The lover of Rainer Maria Rilke, a close friend of Frederic Nietzsche and confidant to Sigmund Freud was a muse who inspired men and helped Freud develop his theory of psychoanalysis.

5. Marie Bonaparte. A direct descendant of Napoleon and immensely rich, asked the help of Sigmund Freud to perform a psychoanalytic therapy to cure what she called "orgasmic abnormality". After the therapy failed, Marie Bonaparte underwent three surgical operations to move the clitoris closer to the vagina, with the purpose of achieving her vaginal orgasmic capacity. She became a well-known psychoanalyst and helped Freud to escape Vienna and the Nazis and to get him establish in London in 1938.

Sigmund Freud was one of the most important characters of the 20th century. The development of psychoanalysis had a great impact on Western society. Freud loved the company of women, and they were essential in the development of psychoanalysis. However, he could never answer his famous question: “What does a woman want?”
