Tată absent fiu ratat

Guy Corneau asks how a father's absence shapes his son's sense of self. He looks at how silence drives fathers and sons apart. This can leave boys with no one to guide them. He links these gaps to men's struggles to feel close. He also links them to men's fear of buried anger.

The book looks at the pressure to play the hero. It also explores the urge to stay young forever. Some men seek conquests, while some sons strive to please.

This book on psychology speaks to men who feel lost or hurt. It also speaks to men who feel unsure of themselves. Corneau sees talk about these wounds as a way to heal. He is a Jungian psychotherapist, with a focus on men's sense of self.

The book has come out in ten languages. Ioana Medes translated this edition from French. It forms part of the Psihologia series.
