I’ve been dipping into a book I borrowed sometime ago from a friend who is a psycho-analytic historian and who introduced me to the work and thinking of Jean LaPlanche. The book is a collection of interview with LaPlanche called Seduction, Translation, Drives. The other day I was trying to read it while running and drew some quizzical looks from the man beside me. There are certain kinds of fonts I can manage to read while moving, but not this one.

Since I’ve moved slowly through this book previously and am back re-simmering with it, I decided to seek my own copy of it, so I can return it to my friend. I just looked and discovered only one copy available priced $624.00 !
