Abstract

Regarding psychoanalysis, he believes it will change and adapt to online working, noting that Freud thought treating "children, psychotics, perverts" would be unthinkable, he continues, "as for group analysis Freud thought it was unimaginable" (p. 126). Coronavirus, psychoanalysis and philosophy: conversations on pandemics, politics and society: edited by Fernando Castrillon and Thomas Marchevsky, London and New York, Routledge, 2021, 164 pp., £23.99 (pb), ISBN 9780367713669 An interview with Julia Kristeva, an eminent French psychoanalyst, is thought-provoking: she highlights the already present chronic loneliness due to the internet and social media, therefore the enforced isolation in the lockdowns is only an extension of something already felt.
