Originally published in 1983, this bestseller is a compelling portrait of a young woman s experience in psychotherapy. Judith Rossner stunned American with LOOKING
FOR MR. GOODBAR, the vivid, often brutal novel
of a singles bar murder on Manhattan s Upper
West Side.
Now, in AUGUST, you will enter into the
most private reaches of the psychoanalyst s office.
Here, behind dosed doors, in the unsparing
intimacy that must exist between patient and analyst,
Dr. Lulu Shine feld will begin the analysis of
Dawn Henley, a lovely Barnard freshman whose
bizarre childhood and tenuous future have twice
brought her to the edge of suicide.
Parallel to the drama of Dawn s story is the
revelation of Lulu Shinefeld s own private life."
Divorced and the mother of three, her insights
as an analyst will force her to confront the truth of
her relationships with her peers, her lover, and
her children.
Harrowing, fascinating, totally absorbing, AU-
GUST is the story of two women s journeys to-
ward self-discovery. It is very much a story of
our time---.a novel of love and loss and the healing
strength of self-knowledge that critics across
America have hailed as Judith Rossner s finest book.
