Freud's Mistress (29 page)

First and foremost, we would like to thank Molly Friedrich. Without her guidance and tireless efforts on our behalf there would be no book.

To Amy Einhorn, our editor, whose exceptional insights and literary instincts brought this book to life.

Also, for their hours of attention and skill, we'd like to thank Lucy Carson, Molly Schulman, Nichole LeFebvre, and Elizabeth Stein.

To everyone at Putnam—the cover artists, the talented publicity team, and the extraordinarily knowledgeable copy editors—we are grateful for their support and expertise.
