A dramatic revisiting of Freuds escape from Nazioccupied Vienna, his final days on earth, and his most controversial workMoses and Monotheism.When Hitler invaded Vienna in March of 1938, Sigmund Freud, old and desperately ill, was among the citys 175,000 Jews dreading Nazi occupation. The Nazis hated Sigmund Freud with a particular vehemence: they detested his souldestroying glorification of the instinctual life. Here Mark Edmundson traces Hitler and Freuds oddly converging lives, then zeroes in on Freuds last two years, during which, with the help of Marie Bonaparte, he was at last rescued from Vienna and brought safely to London. There he was honored as he never had been during his long, controversial life. At the same time he endured the last of more than thirty operations for cancer of the jaw. Confronting certain death, Freud, in typical fashion, did not let fame make him complacent, but instead wrote his most provocative book, Moses and Monotheism, in which he questioned the legacy of the greatest Jewish leader. Focusing on Freuds last two years, Edmundson is able to probe Freuds ideas about death, and also about the human proclivity to embrace fascism in politics and fundamentalism in religion. Edmundson suggests new and important ways to view Freuds legacy, at a time when these forces are once again shaping world events.

While I found Freud's story intriguing, the book arrived with a bent cover which was disappointing. I expected better packaging for a hardcover. The content is solid, but the condition it came in took away from my reading experience.

A Fascinating Look Into Freud's Final Days
The Death of Sigmund Freud is a compelling read that dives deep into Freud's last days. The author does a great job of painting a vivid picture of his struggles and the impact of his legacy. I found it really insightful and couldn't put it down!

Interesting, but a Bit Dense at Times
I enjoyed the content of this book about Freud's final days, but some parts were a little hard to get through. It felt like it could have been more concise. However, the insights into his life were valuable for understanding his legacy.
