S was a good person. Such a good person. They all told me that - so it had to be true.S is unique.

All struggle to account for the enigmatic figure who has wandered through their lives, doing some good things - and some bad.

Together, their tissue of voices reveal the complexity of care.In a series of intimate snapshots charting the relations of one ordinary yet extraordinary man, Clinical Intimacy explores the emotional conditions and moral consequences of a life lived in service of satisfying others.
