Lacan in the End Times

In the Name of the Absent Father

This book explores themes around the Father, His absence in modern society, and the decline of mental health. The nature of this decline can be theorised uniquely psychoanalytically, in the corresponding ferocity of the internal object and exposure to the Real.
