Wandering Souls
Cecile Pin
Have you read @CecilekvPin’s Wandering Souls yet? It is a beautiful book. Very pleased to see it longlisted for The Woman’s Prize. Such a beautiful book, shockingly sad and eventually resolved and happy. I loved every word. Refreshingly original. ❤️ Unputdownable https://t.co/Re7o3xWBGe

For Your Own Good: Hidden Cruelty in Child-Rearing and the Roots of Violence
Alice Miller
@CaroFran85 Have a look at Erik Erikson and his psycho-biographies. E.g.“Young Man Luther: A Study in Psychoanalysis and History”. Then maybe Alice Miller’s work e.g. “For Your Own Good: Hidden Cruelty in Child-Rearing and the Roots of Violence”. I agree, it should be taught.
