Tales from the Therapy Room

Reader's responses'

• Delightful, moving stories, recounted with pith and wit
• What a little gem this book is. Each short story distinct, crisp and unpredictable
• A delightful, thoughtful and often funny peek into an imaginary therapy room
• I'm limiting myself to 1 tale a night, so that I can savour it a bit longer
• These tales have something of a detective story about them...unnerving and compelling at the same time like a good thriller, with a wonderful twist in the end
• Beautifully constructed and lightly executed
• Distinct, crisp and unpredictable… I came to believe that even the author was surprised by what came next
• I found this book un-put-down-able and re-read several of the stories
• Phil Lapworth seems to have invented a new genre of his own. Each story is a little jewel, and I had to keep reminding myself that they were fictional
• He has caught the poignancy of human vulnerability as well as its absurdity and humour
• These stories stand undeniably on their own as surprising and delightful duets of the psychotherapeutic relationship, often concluding with a wry and humorous twist, always entertaining and warm-hearted. We look forward to reading more such tales
