Freud's Oracle: A Play Based on the Life of H.D.

By Catherine Ann Jones

A one-person play about the American poet H.D. (Hilda Doolittle 1886-1961) and her relationship with Sigmund Freud. H.D. suffered great personal losses and a nervous breakdown due to the Great War, becoming Freud's patient in 1933 due to an increasing paranoia about the rise of Hitler and the fear and certainty that another war was coming. The themes are the travesty of war and the triumph of the individual.
