Vienna, 1938: With the Nazis closing in, Sigmund Freud is granted an exit visa and allowed to list the names of people to take with him. He lists his doctor and maids, his dog and his wifeâ€™s sister, but he doesnâ€™t list any of his own sisters. The four Freud sisters are shuttled to the TerezÃ­n concentration camp, while their brother lives out his last days in London.,Based on a true story, this searing novel gives haunting voice to Freudâ€™s sister Adolfinaâ€”â€œthe sweetest and best of my sistersâ€â€”a gifted, sensitive woman who was spurned by her mother and who never married. From her closeness with her brother in childhood, to her love for a fellow student, to her time with Gustav Klimtâ€™s sister in a Vienna psychiatric hospital, to her dream of one day living in Venice and having a family, ,Freudâ€™s Sister, imagines the life of a woman lost to the shadows of history with astonishing insight and deep feeling.,Link to Penguin
