Girl on the Ball

The novel and psychological article presented in the book illustrate various manifestations of masochism in our culture. From a psychological point of view, masochists are considered to be people who are accustomed to suffering for others: for example, putting off solving their own problems or not noticing them at all, while instead getting involved in the destinies of others. If you sometimes want to play a significant role in someone else's fate, first consider how much your own fate is being neglected in the process. If you do not believe that you are the creator of your own life, you provoke other people to participate in your life at their discretion. 

For a wide range of readers.
