ABSTRACT
It is the art of psychoanalysis in the making, a process inventing itself as it goes, that is the subject of this chapter.Psychoanalysis is a lived emotional experience. As such, it cannot be translated, transcribed, recorded, explained, understood or told in words. It is what it is.Nevertheless, I believe it is possible to say something about that lived experience that is of value in thinking about aspects of what it is that happens between analysts and their patients when they are engaged in the work of psychoanalysis.
