A dramatic narrative of Freud's last two years, when he fled Nazi-occupied Vienna for London. Mark Edmundson traces Hitler and Freud's oddly converging lives. He probes Freud's ideas about secular death, and also about the rise of fascism and fundamentalism at a time when religious fundamentalism is once again shaping world events.
