The Harcourt, Brace edition has 310 pages, is hard cover and is very close to the size given above. The subject, originally shown on this page as fiction, was incorrect. Thus, it was changed by me to "Autobiography," which it is.

Book Details


First Sentence

"The small town in which I spent my childhood is one of the oldest in Bavaria. [Chapter 1, page 7, "The Cattle Market."] A few years ago, at a psychiatric convention, I ran into a girl with whom I studied medicine and with whom I interned in the Neurological Department of one of the municipal hospitals in Berlin. [page 1, "Foreword."]"
