Description Dr Givings is a coolly rational man of 19th Century science, whose modern device for treating hysteria has many advocates - not least the female patients themselves, who come back wanting more. Lonely and struggling with new motherhood, Mrs Givings seeks the companionship of her husband's patients and begins to discover the truth of what goes on in the next room.
