Set in 1990 in the coastal city of Latrobe, Shoshana is a 33 year old woman who attracts attention from men everywhere she goes. She knows how to move her body & loves to dance with her arms in the air as she seduces all who see her. . . But, for all of Shoshana's ability to gather men around her, true intimacy eludes her as she is caught up in superficial supplies of attention. However, with so many men vying for her time, hostilities erupt as primal tensions flare between them. Shoshana has an eight year old daughter who she is estranged from due to her inability to identify her child's needs beyond her own. Shoshana's greatest rival is her sister Miriam as she struggles with Shoshana's perceived freedom to do as she pleases while she feels compelled to live within traditional rules of mother and wife. Alternatively Shoshana's parents are protective of Shoshana & blame themselves for the difficulties she experiences...Histrionic Personality Disorder is a painful and enduring pattern of behaviours that shapes Shoshana's interpretation of the world. She is highly sensitive and emotional when things don't go as she expects & her promiscuity works against her feeling secure and finding peace with others...Shoshana works openly together with her therapist as he explains her diagnosis and challenges her understanding of the world with care & compassion.Shoshana is the 4th book in the 'Curious Minds' series that explores Histrionic Personality Disorder. It has a 'fly on the wall' look at what happens inside the therapy room with psychotherapist Dr.Bernard Pembroke and his unique way of exploring and illuminating how these patterns began in early childhood. Bernard works with Shoshana, stretching her self awareness and helps her develop personal insights assisting an opportunity for her to truly love the only one that matters most...her daughter.
