Although Mr. Esterson will probably disagree, I believe "The White Hotel" by
D.M. Thomas is an excellent novel that is expository of Freud's thinking and
its historical implications. Also, there is a good article from Thomas in the
British Medical Journal regarding the relationship of his novel to Freudian
theory available on the internet at:

Hello All,
I have been incorporating novel-like books as supplementary reading into some
of my courses and have found that many of the students really enjoy when we
devote the first 15 minutes of each class to discussing our reactions to a
chapter of the book. I also require that they keep a typed journal of their
reactions to each chapter and turn that in at the end of the semester. I've
found this to promote class participation in class sizes around 35 students or
smaller, and I am looking for book suggestions for the following courses that I
have yet to find a reading that I think the undergraduate students will really
enjoy:
Theories of Counseling
Personality
Social Psychology
Health Psychology ("Standing Tall: The Kevin Everett Story" was recently
recommended to me by a student, but I have not yet read it)
Any suggestions you have are welcomed. Thanks.
