“I Ate His Heart.” Witnesses discovered “Bernard” at the crime scene the next morning, repeating this phrase over and over. His arrival at the Château-Thierry prison, where I work as a psychologist, marked the beginning of a unique psychotherapy and led me to write a book. This lecture will allow us to journey together, not only into the dark and extreme psychology, perspectives and emotions of Bernard, but also related interrogations concerning society, the law, insanity, incarceration, taboos and psychology. I will neither sensationalize nor excuse, but rather try to shed light on humanity, through the prism of this extraordinary case.
Nathalie von Zelowitz started studying psychology in the late 1980s, intrigued by topics that were considered marginal at the time: serial killers, sex offenders, sexual perversion, and more. I have spent 30 years working in a prison that holds France’s most extreme and disturbed inmates, participating in pioneering psychological research concerning sexual criminals, and leading to the publication of “I Ate His Heart.”
