later that I should have asked you in Maine. You think... and do
things: I do things ... and can't think. This isn't false modesty; it is
a real pain at not being able to explain what I see to be truth in
children and adults.
Guess I need a whiskey to cheer me up. I can't get one.
All the best to you. And lIse and Peter who is likely to succeed you
in the work. He is surely bright, but I didn't like his being so much
alone without other kids in Maine. Apt to make him old before his
time.

My dear Reich,

Posted a letter to you today. Then Eastmond came down to
see me. Re publishing your books here. He is very keen. Says he will
call his firm the Biotechnic Press. I think it might be best to let him,
Eastmond, carry on ON CONDITION that you have no financial re
sponsibility, and must be consulted before anything of yours is pub
lished. I think he is reliable, and certainly he is most keen on your
work. He has a steady sale for the journals and your books. Odd how
they get known; today a student from a teachers' training college came
here and told me the lecturer in psychology talks about Reich. That
in Stafford in mid-England.
N ext time you write let me know if you want E. to go ahead, and if so
with Char. Analysis and not the Function or Sexual Revolution or
Fascism.
More work for you ... sorry.

My dear Neill:
It was agreed with Wolfe that Character Analysis should be
printed in England and that the American Orgone Institute Press would
order and sell Character Analysis here. My private opinion is that we
should build up our own press in many countries to be independent,
