About
Annae, a brilliant graduate student in psychiatric magic and survivor of academic abuse, can't stop reading people's minds. This is how she protects herself, by using her abilities to know exactly how her colleagues view her. This is how she escapes the torturous experience of her own existence.
When Annae moves to England to rebuild her life and finish her studies under the seminal magician Marec Górski—infamous for bringing to life a homunculus made from his unwanted better self—she sees, inside his head, a man who is both a destructive force to everyone around him, and her mirror image. For Annae to survive, she'll need to break free of a lifetime of conditioning to embody her own self and forge her own path.

"This is dark academia at its most oppressive and intense. . .The cruelty and indifference of the academy; the far-reaching damage caused by ego-driven obsession; the refusal of senior faculty members to consider students as anything but extensions of themselves: All are marvelously staged and meticulously examined."
The New York Times
"Confident and lyrical, The Two Doctors Górski is an academic gut-punch. A superb blend of the devastatingly familiar and exquisitely fantastical."
