Sobre IBD

’Mr.Sullivan has written a most unusual and arresting book. In his clear and incisive style he narrates the adventures of his soul from the age of three years upwards - raising question after question of deep, psychological interest, stating the problem, disposing of it in a few vigorous sentences, and always leaving you something to think about, whether you agree with him or not. There is more sound sense talked about sex in this book than in any I have handled for years - and more on one single page than in a dozen modern novels devoted exclusively to the subject.’ Week-End Review
