26.PIT, Appendix. We have to take with some skepticism Reich’s attribution of the initia-
tive for approaching Thjötta. Reich was inclined to blame others when a contact ended
badly.I remember around 1950 Reich conceived the idea of donating some of his books to
the Rangeley Public Library. He asked me what I thought of the plan. In the face of his
enthusiasm I was not inclined to express my doubts about the degree to which the librarian
would welcome the gift ofThe Function of the Orgasm. Later, when she returned the
books as unacceptable, a very hurt Reich fiercely blamed me for proposing the idea of send-
ing the books.
