From our regular book review column.
In 1964, a thinly fictionalized account of a treatment at Chestnut Lodge Hospital was published with the title I Never Promised You a Rose Garden. Hannah Green, the pseudonymous author, described her psychotherapy with "Dr. Fried." Defying all expectations, the book became extraordinarily popular and ultimately sold more than 5 million copies. It was also made into a movie in 1977.
