About the book

Part biography, part literary criticism, The Secret Artist takes the reader into the mind of Freud, toward a better understanding of the thinker, his work and art itself. Using Freud's own writing on art and the aesthetic theories of thinkers ranging from Nietzsche to Lionel Trilling, author Lesley Chamberlain examines Freud's art and shows how his imaginative creations have revolutionized not only mental health, but our thinking about art in general, by opening up the individual subconscious as a subject.
