This book was recommended to me by my therapist, and, as with many books I've been reading recently, begs to be reread and reabsorbed again.

This is quite a backlist title--published in the 90s--but as a workaholic, I found it so incredibly insightful, constructive and hopeful. I knew some of these things, but the exercises it gives to examine the why behind our drivenness, and how to helpfully address the past and look to the future empowered me so much, and gave me so many ideas of how to address these themes in my future novels.
