Ebook About Daughter of Narcissus is a stunning analysis by the author of the serious personality disorder of narcissism through her own dysfunctional family, positioned at the heart of international society from the middle of the 20th century to present day. Dr Anna Brocklebank considers it one of the most significant and inspiring books ever written on the subject of narcissism and believes it should become a medical reference book as well as a popular best seller. Departing from her former studies of the Royal Family and the Super Rich, Georgie Campbell turns her intelligence, insight and energy on to her own family's past to reveal the reality beneath serious personality disorders, and the emotional terrorism they engender.The book straddles two conflicting worlds: the white elitism of the British Colonial way of life and the empowerment of the black race post-Independence. It provides an insightful record of why the colonial age had to end, while also giving the reader an insider's view of the political and sociological difficulties that nationhood brought to the inhabitants of the colonies. In doing so, Georgie Campbell paints a vivid picture of the way of life that allowed the narcissistic personality disorder of her mother to flourish. Daughter of Narcissus not only places the disorder of narcissism in its proper sociological context, but it also exposes the shocking behaviour of the disordered personality. It is disarmingly honest and revelatory, a compulsive read - in the words of Dr. Brocklebank, it is "gripping" - a fascinating history of a family who learnt to survive unbelievable misconduct in order to lead purposeful and affirming lives.Book Daughter of Narcissus Review :
Why sad and tragic? Because it's a true story.Written by Lady Colin Campbell, the book describes what it was like to grow up in a family headed by a narcissistic mother and an emotionally passive father. The father was accomplished in the business world, but at home, the mother ran the roost.In today's language the mother might be classified a narcissist as well as a sociopath and a sadist. For me, it was the latter which was the most devastating to read about. Not only did the mother apparently have the personality flaws of vanity, materialism, shallowness, and self centeredness, as a narcisisst might; the emptiness inside and lack of morality a sociopath might; but truly enjoyed causing others extreme pain, confusion, and distress.Lady Campbell has done a magnificent job of recalling detailed conversations and incidents. Some artistic license might have been taken, as these things sometimes occurred decades ago; but the basics have the ring of truth. The incidents are too bizarre and too simultaneously banal to have been manufactured. Cruelty was a fact of life in the Ziadie household.The titular mother had it out for everyone at some point in time. Her own sister, her own husband, and her own children. She is quoted as saying she hates children and "is the biggest bitch you will ever meet." She seems determined to live down to her own self-description. She is casually cruel for no reason at all. More, she goes out of her way to concoct machinations to destroy the lives of those in her closest family.Throughout, her children try to be loyal and dutiful and loving; hope dies hard in a child towards their parent.Lady Campbell also briefly details the basics of her married years. She mentions various litigations she has been put through over the decades. All of this while dealing with an alcoholic, sadistic sociopath who had a way of pulling her children (including Lady Campbell) back into her orbit over and over again.All I can say is Lady Campbell must be one of the emotionally strongest people on earth. What she has been through might have put many people underground. Instead, she flourished. This book might be inspiring for those who have dealt or are dealing with a similar parent or loved one as the titular mother of this tale.Like many adult children of abusive homes, Lady Campbell has grown up to value truth and is a truth teller. This is partly what makes her books so riveting. This book is tragic because even the mother in this story is not happy; but she cannot stop herself from shredding those who love her. It is in the end a dark fairy tale; the family who had everything materially speaking but had such potently toxic emotional obstacles to overcome. Well worth a read. For those of us that survived narcissistic parents it is validating to hear the story of another survivor and observe the various destructive havoc those monsters wreck. Towards the end of the book are some citations from science explaining the psychological aspects of narcissism if one choose to look at it as a mental illness. My own belief is that calling it that insults those with true mental illnesses and not moral deformations. I believe there is more choice in a narcissist life than say that of a person with mood swings. That debate aside, the book was interesting enough that I turned page after page, and yet was troubled by the brutality toward people of color her mother engaged inSeparating how engaging a book is to read from an ideology a reader finds distasteful is not easy. I don't do it well in this book because the wealth and privilege despite the abuse created a tone deafness in the author about the masses of color rising up against the oppressor. Writing that off as stupid socialism engaged in by the stupid and jealous she misses something she unearthed in her writing despite herself. The opinion that the haves created Jamaican society when it was good (for them) and those that wanted to overthrow it were jealous malcontents. History written from the perspective of an entitled narcissistic culture as a whole. Yes they could be benevolent as the narcissists in her story was, but always for the purpose of promoting their right to it all. Can a culture be narcissist toward another? yes, and do so blindly unaware that what they repeat in their family life is carried out in mass across a color and class divide.She credits rabble rousing politicians that were jealous of the wealth for destabilizing Jamaica. Yet I didn't tie in the story of a maid being told to scrub the same spot 36 times on her hands and knees while the "master" employer screams out racist invective using the n word and then throws the woman in the street. Because she could. Because there was no intervention and no union and no power from those on their knees scrubbing floors for people like the author's family. She gets mildly involved in that one instance but a life time of observing it and then blaming civil unrest on privilege and class jealousy is exactly what narcissism looks like on a cultural scale. And as always, the last one to admit it are those that profit from it.This troubled me and the authors own personality did not shine through as any sort of heroic person as she watched siblings suffer intensely while she stayed un-involved to protect her status as the non-scapegoat at the moment. She was heroic in pursuing her own advantage but appears to lack empathy of the aftermath to others of that elite in Jamaica. Cultural narcissism looks like that. I finished reading this book with an understanding that narcissists are all alike but with an alienation of the 1 percent that are so avidly tone deaf and blind to why those around them consider them oppressive. But then there is no narcissist be it a person or a culture or a class elite that don't believe they deserve some sort of worship or entitlement Read Online Daughter of Narcissus Download Daughter of Narcissus Daughter of Narcissus PDF Daughter of Narcissus Mobi Free Reading Daughter of Narcissus Download Free Pdf Daughter of Narcissus PDF Online Daughter of Narcissus Mobi Online Daughter of Narcissus Reading Online Daughter of Narcissus Read Online Lady Colin Campbell Download Lady Colin Campbell Lady Colin Campbell PDF Lady Colin Campbell Mobi Free Reading Lady Colin Campbell Download Free Pdf Lady Colin Campbell PDF Online Lady Colin Campbell Mobi Online Lady Colin Campbell Reading Online Lady Colin CampbellDownload Mobi Summer Island: A Novel By Kristin Hannah
