Haydée Faimberg conceptualizes the relative absence of her patient Mario as transgenerational trauma. While her treatment of Mario illuminates aspects of his difficulties in relation to his history, it also affords glimpses of aspects of Mario's dilemmas in relation to his analyst and his analysis that have yet to be uncovered. Her theory-building seems to invite the analyst to discover the “real” story in ways that threaten to obscure the subject, who has become lost in his own story.
