Industry Reviews

An elegant sociological study, complete with erudite literary and anthropological references - Daily Telegraph

Reads like a cross between the works of Jacques Lacan and French Women Don't Get Fat - The New Yorker

At precisely the same moment that you're being shocked by her, you're also acknowledging the validity of her ideas. Perel's ideas are like the chorus of a really good pop song - instantly familiar because they resonate deeply. It's all rather terrifying in its intuitiveness and its pure rightness - Observer
