The Forge and Melinda Ferguson Books are happy to invite you to the launch of Nation on the Couch by Wahbie Long.
Nation on the Couch “explores life in our beloved country through the lens of psychoanalysis. By focusing on the idea of a ‘political unconscious’, it argues that there is much to be learnt from excavating the inner life of South Africans, which can illuminate the external problems that beset us from all sides”.
