Sobre IBD

Winner of the Bronze Medal for Best Historical Fiction - Literary Category - HFC Book of the Year 2022Sabrine, hospitalized for five years at the infamous Salpêtrière Asylum for Women, gains her release due to intervention of her sister Julie Forette and a young Sigmund Freud. The reunited sisters are introduced to the dazzling art milieu of 1886 Paris, and soon become close friends to the leading Impressionists. Sabrine attracts a cult following as a poetess, the enigmatic 'Haiku Princess.' Seemingly cured by Freud of her Grand Hysteria, Sabrine soon enters into a tumultuous relationship with Vincent van Gogh. Jule and Sigmund Freud, alarmed by the eerie parallels between the emotionally volatile couple and their self-destructive impulses, begin an urgent search to discover the root causes for Sabrine and Vincent’s growing psychoses. Julie, ’The Dream Collector’ seeks their most unforgettable dream for Freud’s interpretation and revelations occur. The Dream Collector is an exploration of the psychological consequences of betrayal, abandonment--and the redemptive power of art.
