Love Must Also Weep Masters, Robert Augustus

Robert Augustus Masters doesn't write self-help books that promise you'll feel better by page 50. He writes about the messy, uncomfortable work of actually facing yourself. *Love Must Also Weep* is about expanding emotional range — not just chasing joy but learning to sit with grief, anger, shame, and fear without flinching. Masters, a psychotherapist who's spent decades working with people in crisis, argues that real intimacy requires us to stop performing happiness and start getting honest about the parts we've buried. The writing is direct, sometimes confrontational, always grounded in clinical insight. If you're tired of spiritual bypassing and want something that treats emotional depth like the difficult, necessary labor it is, this will land.
