In 1908, an Austrian psychiatrist receives an urgent request from a Boston colleague, who fears his brother's intention to rewrite his early novels may be the sign of debilitating neuroses. During the psychiatrist's impending sojourn in England, might he be able to spare time for a visit to his colleague's brother, and to "discreetly probe this enigma"? Unable to resist the temptation to delve into the mind of the era's most illustrious living author, he agrees and arrives in southern England in the late summer of 1908. The Austrian doctor in question is the father of psychoanalysis, Sigmund Freud. The Boston psychologist is William James, and the novelist is his brother, Henry James. Over the course of ten days at Lamb House, the worlds of psychology and literature joust and collide - giving rise to this charming novel of ideas.
