I got a letter from a friend recently suggesting that Freud wasnot only paranoid but lethal to his followers. I quote:

"I have been so immersed in the Freud material for so long I don't know how the ordinary reader would take to it but, it [Vienna Triangle:] seems to me, to work beautifully on its own as a novel. Freud was a paranoid son-of-a-bitch and what he did to Tausk was one in a long series, starting with Breuer, then going to Jung -- who came near psychosis after being dumped -- and Ferenczi, who said his death from anemia was hastened, if not caused, by Freud's rejection. The genius as serial killer." I want to open the topic to discussion. I'm tired of talking to the converted. Only a handful of analysts have been willing to talk with me. What is the point of the net if we don't discuss things. Please! Examples, cases, thoughts?
