Subject Lessons is a novel in stories that provides a fly-on-the-wall view of psychoanalysis from the perspective of the elegant and exacting Dr. Sandra Krasnapol, whose sometimes hair-raising, sometimes heartwarming encounters in and out of the office offer voyeuristic satisfaction for anyone who has ever wondered what goes on in an analyst’s mind.
