‘A hugely thoughtful and stimulating book about love that can’t fail to leave us with new insights on our lives. If only all psychotherapists could write as well as Juliet Rosenfeld.’ – Alain de Botton‘Riveting’ – New Statesman ‘I found it brutal, heartbreaking and, in a strange way (after its tales had settled in me) inspiring’ – You Magazine‘If you read this insightful and challenging book, you may just feel differently about infidelity.’ * The Oldie *

Juliet Rosenfeld is a psychoanalytic psychotherapist and author, living and working in London. In both her clinical work and writing, she has a special interest in grief and love (as the two are often so profoundly entwined). Juliet’s writing has been published in The Times, The Guardian and The Observer, amongst others, and she has appeared on podcasts, panels and at events, speaking about topics of love, loss and grief within a psychoanalytical framework.

Her first book, The State of Disbelief: A Story of Death, Love and Forgetting, was published in 2020. In it, Juliet tells the story of the diagnosis, illness and death of her husband from lung cancer and how the experience turned everything she had learnt about death as a psychotherapist on its head.
