內容簡介: |
Why are many of the most successful people plagued by feelings
of emptiness and alienation? This wise and profound book has
provided thousands of readers with an answerand has helped them to
apply it to their own lives. Far too many of us had to learn as
children to hide our own feelings, needs, and memories skillfully
in order to meet our parents expectations and win their love. Alice
Miller writes, When I used the word gifted in the title, I had in
mind neither children who receive high grades in school nor
children talented in a special way. I simply meant all of us who
have survived an abusive childhood thanks to an ability to adapt
even to unspeakable cruelty by becoming numb Without this gift
offered us by nature, we would not have survived. But merely
surviving is not enough. The Drama of the Gifted Child helps us to
reclaim our life by discovering our own crucial needs and our own
truth.
