Michael Harkins replied to Janet Fortess's discussion Lecture 2 Community Education-Red Book Study Group with Robert Bosnak February 2-16 in ARCHIVED-Red Book Study Group with Jungian Robert Bosnak

"When I made reference to Ulysses & Nausicaa, I left the bread crumb pointing to Wikipedia - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nausicaa I was hoping that some of you would follow it and I like what came from it.

"Last week I was reminded of an Anthony Burgess book 'The End of the World News.' I hadn't read it it over twenty years, but it often comes to mind when thinking of Freud, as there is a Freud thread woven into the story. So I picked it up last night…"

    Happy New Year, and welcome. This is a great site! Hope you enjoy it.  I grew up in Asbury Park and Wanamassa. I hear everything has changed in the area. Including county names. Used to be Monmouth County-now???

Hope you enjoy perusing the site and connecting with like-minded peers.
