  When Anna Wickins began counselling with her therapist, Paddy Magrane, she could barely speak in their sessions, silenced by traumatic memories from two decades before. But as trust built, Anna felt able to open up and she started to talk about the terrifying ordeal she experienced at university. As Anna examined her past, a transformation was occurring across the room. Listening to her tale awakened painful memories in Paddy about the horrors that occurred at his boarding school.
  After two years of healing work, Anna and Paddy embarked on an unusual therapeutic exercise: a visit to the site of her trauma, where Anna physically confronted the scenes of her nightmares. With Paddy's reassurance and support, she was finally able to leave her demons behind. Once robbed of a voice, Anna now helps others to find theirs, in the same way that Paddy helped her.
  Told in alternating perspectives, Both Sides of the Couch is a searingly honest account of how counselling shapes both client and therapist. A unique window into therapy, it shows, for the first time, the journey through the eyes of both participants. Both Sides of the Couch is a moving and inspirational story of finding light in the darkest of times.

  If I Were a Man - From their...

  Charlotte Perkins Gilman

  Charlotte Perkins Gilman was born on 3rd July 1860 in Hartford, Connecticut, to an unaffectionate mother and a father who abandoned her and her older brother to a life of poverty. 
  Inevitably her schooling was limited and by 15 she had attended seven different schools but received only four years education.  However Charlotte was resourceful and did spend time with her father’s aunts – the suffragist Isabella Beecher Hooker and the ‘Uncle Tom Cabin’s’ author, Harriet Beecher Stowe as well as many hours at the public library studying ancient civilisations. 
  In 1878, she enrolled in classes at the Rhode Island School of Design where she met Martha Luther and they developed a close relationship until Luther married in 1881. Charlotte was devastated and detested romance and love until she met and married the artist Charles Walter Stetson.  
  Their only child, Katharine Beecher Stetson, was born in 1885 but left Charlotte with post-natal depression, then often dismissed as a case of hysteria or nerves.  Unsuited to domestic life she ruptured her life and moved to California with Katherine.  She divorced in 1894 and then sent Katharine east to live with her father and his second wife confirming that his paternal rights be acknowledged and that Katherine establish a relationship with her father. 
  After her mother died in 1893, Charlotte moved back east and became involved with her first cousin, Wall Street attorney, Houghton Gilman who she married in 1900. After his death she moved back to California, where Katherine now lived.   
  Her most popular story is ‘The Yellow Wallpaper’ which touched on her own post-partum depression and underlined the need for women to be responsible for their mental and physical well-being, as the narrator is ordered by her husband/doctor to take compete rest in her room where she is isolated and becomes obsessed with the revolting yellow wallpaper.   
  She wrote other notable short stories the best of which we also include.   
  Charlotte lectured widely for social reform, wrote important non-fiction works that questioned our patriarchal system and left a legacy as a leading and positive spokesperson for feminism.  
  She was diagnosed with incurable breast cancer in 1932 and, as she wrote in her suicide note and autobiography, she ‘chose chloroform over cancer’    
  Charlotte Perkins Gilman took her own life on 17th August 1935, aged 75, in Pasadena, California.

  Actor Rahul Bose lends his golden voice to some ethereal love letters written by some great personalities from the bygone era.
  
  English writer Lewis Carroll (1832-1898) excelled in writing children's fiction like 'Alice's Adventure in Wonderland' and it's sequel 'Through the Looking-Glass'. He had a way with word play, logic & fantasy in his stories. It was believed that he had a habit of dedicating his works to girls of his acquaintance, adding their names in acrostic poems at the beginning of the text. Gertrude was one of those characters.
  
  Christ Church, Oxford, October 28, 1876
  
  My Dearest Gertrude:
  
  You will be sorry, and surprised, and puzzled, to hear what a queer illness I have had ever since you went. I sent for the doctor, and said, "Give me some medicine. for I'm tired. " He said, "Nonsense and stuff! You don't want medicine: go to bed!"
  
  I said, "No; it isn't the sort of tiredness that wants bed. I'm tired in the face. " He looked a little grave, and said, "Oh, it's your nose that's tired: a person often talks too much when he thinks he knows a
  
  great deal. " I said, "No, it isn't the nose. Perhaps it's the hair. " Then he looked rather grave, and said, "Now I understand: you've been playing too many hairs on the pianoforte. "
  
  "No, indeed I haven't!" I said, "and it isn't exactly the hair: it's more about the nose and chin. " Then he looked a good deal graver, and said, "Have you been walking much on your chin lately?" I said, "No. " "Well!" he said, "it puzzles me very much.
  
  Do you think it's in the lips?" "Of course!" I said. "That's exactly what it is!"
  
  Then he looked very grave indeed, and said, "I think you must have been giving too many kisses. " "Well, " I said, "I did give one kiss to a baby child, a little friend of mine. "
  
  "Think again, " he said; "are you sure it was only one?" I thought again, and said, "Perhaps it was eleven times. " Then the doctor said, "You must not give her any more till your lips are quite rested
  
  again. " "But what am I to do?" I said, "because you see, I owe her a hundred and eighty-two more. " Then he looked so grave that tears ran down his cheeks, and he said, "You may send them to her in a box. "
  
  Then I remembered a little box that I once bought at Dover, and thought I would someday give it to some little girl or other. So I have packed them all in it very carefully. Tell me if they come safe or if any are lost on the way. "
