Amazon.com
There is plenty of lying going on in psychotherapy offices to be found in Irvin D. Yalom's novel Lying on the Couch, and the lying is of every type defined in your average modern dictionary. Among those doing the lying are Carolyn, who hopes to ruin the career of psychotherapist Ernest Lash because she believes his advice led her husband to seek a divorce. Then there is the gambler whose plan is to lure another psychotherapist into malpractice so he can sue and pay off his debts. In Yalom's world, the relationship between therapist and patient is a tricky one indeed, and it's sometimes hard to tell who needs advice and counseling more--the patient lying on the couch or therapist sitting nearby.

From Booklist
TITLR Yalom, Irving D. This novel features a lot of lying (in more than one sense) on or next to a couch, for most of it is set in a California where psychoanalysts, lawyers, and gamblers abound. When ambitious young analyst Ernest Lash counsels Justin Astrid to leave his wife, Carol, a hotshot attorney, she and two colleagues dream up getting back at both men by having Carol become one of Ernest's patients in order to sabotage him. Meanwhile, Marshal Streider, Ernest's supervising analyst, wishes to become San Francisco's leading analyst and to develop an international reputation, and his ruthless campaign to do so blots out all opposition. But Streider's arrogance blinds him to one of his own patients, who turns out to be a highly competent scam artist. Badly jolted by his misadventure, Streider becomes one of Carol's clients in order to regain his lost funds. Although the law doesn't help her own scheme, ultimately, Carol, with Ernest's indirect aid, becomes Streider's "analyst." No violence, little sex, and much conversation add up to a surprisingly attention-holding story.

"Lying on the Couch" is a clever novel by Irvin D. Yalom, a therapist who has written a number of non-fiction books on psychotherapy. This work of fiction peers into the lives of various psychoanalysts and the people whom they analyze. The two main characters are Marshal Streider, a pompous psycholanalyst who is driven by a desperate hunger for fame, wealth and social position, and Ernest Lash, who is Marshall's student. Lash tries a novel approach in psychotherapy. He tries experimenting with an "honest" approach towards his patients. Yalom has fun dissecting the lives of Streider, Lash and their patients. The title, "Lying on the Couch," is a play on words. Yalom tells us that we often lie to our analysts and to ourselves, because lying appears to be easier than facing up to the truth about ourselves. He also probes some of the unconscious feelings that drive some people's self-destructive behavior. In addition, Yalom hilariously punctures the pomposity of jargon-spewing analysts who never use a one-syllable word if they can help it. Ultimately, Dr. Yalom poignantly shows that being true to ourselves and working through our childhood issues is a necessary step towards ultimate growth and fulfillment. This book is creative, literate, and often very funny. "Lying on the Couch" is a delightful entertainment for the thinking reader who is fascinated by the life of the mind.

I'm not particularly interested in psychotherapy, so I wasn't thrilled when my book club picked this to read. I'm happy to say that I enjoyed it immensely.
Therapist Ernest Lash decides to try an experiment: having a completely open and honest relationship with a new patient. Little does he know what effect this will have on him, his patient, and the people who know them. The chain-reaction that follows is amazing and entertaining. This book is great testimony to the power of honesty and integrity.

Escribo desde Mexico D.F. Espero alguien entienda lo que escribo. Pocas veces se lee un libro como este. Soy una paciente de sicoanalisis y fue fascinante saber lo que puede pensarse del otro lado del divan. Realmente devore esta novela que me dejo mucho mas que horas de satistacion, de diversion y de aprendizaje. GRACIAS DR. YALOM.
