A psychological portrait of a play Join me as I take a deeper dive into David Greig’s excellent Two Sisters which ran earlier this year at The Lyceum. I explore Amy played by Shauna Macdonald. Fantastic acting, characters and story. Faber Books thepaperbackpsychologist.com/2024/07/26/two…
Very apt to post this after The Lyceum has just announced that David Greig will be stepping down as Artistic Director in 2025 after a triumphant 8 years. Here’s my psychological study of his recent Two Sisters starring Shauna Macdonald The Stage thepaperbackpsychologist.com/2024/07/26/two…
It’s #InternationalFriendshipDay 💛 In soppy celebration, here’s the final animation from my project with The Glasgow School of Art by the sublime Lucy Jin. It’s for my poem ‘boys holding hands’ from The Cat Prince. Thanks again to Ross Hogg & Corsair Books. Long live friendship & love 🩵💚💜
Maybe a future project: how about a The Booker Prizes long list complete psychological study where I read every book and write a psychological portrait for each book? Too ambitious? Would you like to see that? This could be fun 😬 #bookerprize2024
Since it’s #bookerprize2024 longlist day, here’s my psychological exploration of one of my favourite books: the The Booker Prizes 2020 winning Shuggie Bain by the wonderful Douglas Stuart Picador Books Grove Atlantic #shuggiebain thepaperbackpsychologist.com/2022/09/15/shu…
I’ve been so excited for this new book to arrive. Spent this evening reading through the modules and it looks so comprehensive. A great resource that I’ll be puting straight into action in my clinical work. #CFTManual James N. Kirby
Just want to say thanks to ALL who have shared, posted & spread 🌈🖤✨ today. I truly feel love-bombed. One thing I've learned already - & it's only pub day Taproot Press - is Joshua's story seems to encourage people to share their own pain, loss, hope & positivity. I'm so glad.
Meet Juno in my psychological portrait of Karl Geary’s Juno Loves Legs. A beautiful & devastating novel with so much heart. Juno truly is an ideal character for a Psychologist to explore. Read it here: HarvillSecker Penguin Books Ireland thepaperbackpsychologist.com/2024/09/09/jun… #BookTwitter
