This month we’re featuring Lisa Gottleib’s “Maybe You Should Talk to Someone.”

This month we’re featuring Lisa Gottleib’s “Maybe You Should Talk to Someone.”This memoir made waves this year, landing on best-of lists and must-reads. This quote just about sums it up (and there are countless others backing it up): “An addictive book that’s part Oliver Sacks and part Nora Ephron. Prepare to be riveted.” Psychotherapist Lori Gottlieb’s memoir puts herself on both sides of the therapy divide; she’s both clinician in her Los Angeles practice and client exploring her own issues with the seasoned Wendell. But as with all things ‘talk-therapy,’ it all interweaves together, the conversations that begin in one therapy office seep into the other. Funny and smart, Maybe You Should Talk to Someone makes the case that no-one gets away with being human, not even the experts who know our hearts and minds as they grasp to understand their own. “But many people come to therapy seeking closure. Help me not to feel. What they eventually discover is that you can’t mute one emotion without muting the others. You want to mute the pain? You’ll also mute the joy.” — Lori Gottlieb.You don’t need to be a Member to attend. All you have to do is register for your spot at Feminist Culture Club below, then read the book.
