Title: Love and other illusions
Description: "Enter the world of Jillian Barrister and those who orbit around her--Clay, David, Norma and Dr. Allison--players in a riveting drama of love and loss, happiness and anguish, innocence and guilt. It is Dr. Allison's task to study and understand his patients through the process of analysis, and Jillian is no exception--or is she? The more deeply he probes, the closer he comes to unearthing the childhood tragedy that has isolated her from herself and others, and could topple the precarious defenses of her internal world--a fragile but guarded state of consciousness in which the past is always just beneath the surface"--p. [4] of cover.
