About this title

From Library Journal:

ou Meet the Buddha on the Road, Kill Him! (Bantam, 1976), therapist Kopp tackled the subject of personal responsibility; here he turns his attention to inner and outer fears, arguing that only by facing them head-on can one dare to risk vulnerability and compassion. At first the frank self-disclosure may startle some readers, but the deeper one goes in this mixed bag of personal sharing, clinical case material, and literary criticism (Kopp discusses horror/gothic tales, too), the more one is strangely moved--especially at the end, when Kopp shares his traumatic encounter with a brain tumor. Off-beat but ultimately persuasive.-- EC
