Description
The Story Hour is a novel by Nora A. Smith that explores the complex relationship between a therapist and her patient. The story follows Lakshmi, an Indian immigrant who is struggling with her marriage and identity in the United States. She seeks the help of Maggie, a therapist who is dealing with her own personal issues.As Lakshmi opens up to Maggie, she reveals a secret from her past that she has never shared with anyone. She tells the story of her childhood friend, Amina, and the tragedy that tore them apart. Maggie becomes obsessed with the story and begins to blur the boundaries between patient and therapist.As the two women become more entwined, their lives begin to unravel. Maggie's personal life becomes increasingly complicated, while Lakshmi is forced to confront the consequences of her actions. The Story Hour is a powerful exploration of the human psyche, the complexities of friendship and the consequences of secrets.There are few preliminaries and no formalities when the Person with a Story is found. The motherly little sister stands by the side of her chair, two or three of the smaller fry perch on the arms, and the baby climbs up into her lap (such a person always has a capacious lap), and folds his fat hands placidly. Then there is a deep sigh of blissful expectation and an expressive silence, which means, ""Now we are ready, please; and if you would be kind enough to begin it with 'Once upon a time, ' we should be much obliged.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
