Adam Phillips explores mankind's on-going fascination with ideas of escape, looking at the great Harry Houdini and a case history of a little girl obsessed with hide and seek; at the notoriously reclusive poet Emily Dickinson and a man who believes it is his destiny to always be in flight, whether from women or his analyst. This is Adam Phillip's most captivating book to date.
