A Quick Read

Well-written, this one can be gobbled up in a matter of hours. But is it a good view of multiplicity? Well, it's standard, i.e. trauma-based and ending in integration. The interesting thing here is how her therapist deals with her. He nearly falls in love with her and walks away from the therapy because he has become too emeshed. It certainly isn't the type of therapy I'd want, but is is a compelling story.
