New Psychoanalytic Spaces 2 (Unseen City), with Ankhi Mukherjee

This episode's interview with Ankhi Mukherjee focuses on her recent book, Unseen City: The Psychic Lives of the Urban Poor. It discusses Mukherjee's research on Freud's free clinics and their afterlives in different cities and projects that make psychoanalytic interventions in marginalized communities. We discuss the roles literary criticism can play in the work of these clinics, as well as the urgent need for spaces for subjectivity that are not limited to economic elites and that extend beyond the couch.
