The Best Psychological Novels

Interview by Thea Lenarduzzi, at Five Books.

"The stories we tell ourselves affect our decision-making in profound ways, says psychotherapist turned bestselling author Salley Vickers. Here, she recommends five novels that delve into the psychology of the self—and of society."

See Dickens, "A Full and Faithful Report of the Memorable Trial of Bardell against Pickwick" from The Pickwick Papers, in Gateway to the Great Books (10 Vol., 1963) volume 2, and Little Dorritt, in Great Books of the Western World (second edition, 60 Vol., 1990) volume 47.

See Henry James, The Pupil, in Gateway to the Great Books (10 Vol., 1963) volume 3, and The Beast in the Jungle, in Great Books of the Western World (second edition, 60 Vol., 1990) volume 59.
