Irvin Yalom Literary Novels Editorial Review

The Schopenhauer Cure by Irvin D. Yalom is a five-star rated novel that is insightful and has compelling characters. The book is centered around group therapy sessions and features a dying therapist and a philosopher, Schopenhauer. Readers found the plot interesting and engaging, and the descriptions of human interactions in the therapeutic group setting were superb. However, some felt that the depiction of group therapy was unrealistic and too surreal. Overall, the book is recommended mainly for individuals who have a taste for and need to be philosophical about certain concepts and ideas.
