- Synopsis
- Philadelphia-based Lacanian psychoanalyst Gherovici investigates the cultural, political, and psychological nexus of the Puerto Rican community in relation to mainstream US culture. She begins during the McCarthyite 1950s, when psychoanalysis was rejecting the notion of hysteria and Puerto Rican soldiers began suffering its symptoms.
