The psychoanalytic encounter with the real is an appointment that always misses

Evidence

Lacan asks: “Where do we encounter this real? For what we have in the discovery of psychoanalysis is an encounter, an essential encounter—an appointment to which we are always called with a real that eludes us.” And this encounter, which is rendered at once possible and impossible by the tuché, is indeed “essentially the missed encounter.” — Catherine Malabou, The New Wounded, 2899
