Review of Irvin Yalom's novel "When Nietzsche Wept"

"History is fiction that did happen; fiction is history that might have happened."  This thought guided the author of When Nietzsche Wept: A Novel of Obsession, Irvin D. Yalom, as he imagines an encounter between the iconoclastic philosopher Friedrich Nietzsche and psychoanalyst Sigmund Freud in 19th Century Vienna. Our Book Mole Larry Bowlden reviews it for us.
