Listen, Little Man!
Book - 1974
Listen, Little Man! is a great physician's quiet talk to each one of us, the average human being, the Little Man. Written in 1946 in answer to the gossip and defamation that plagued his remarkable career, it tells how Reich watched, at first naively, then with amazement, and finally with horror, at what the Little Man does to himself; how he suffers and rebels; how he esteems his enemies and murders his friends; how, wherever he gains power as a "representative of the people," he misuses this power and makes itcrueler than the power it has supplanted.
Reich has us to look honestly at ourselves and to assume responsibility for our lives and for the great untapped potential that lies in the depth of human nature.

Add a Commentwhen writing, always be conscious of your reader...if they have been co-opted by the forces of oppression...you well may ask yourself: 'what am I writing for? or, for whom do I write?' and, I say, you write for god and humanity, even if they don't appreciate you for it. it makes an impression, that is what counts, in the end, no matter how betrayed and judased you become. it is not always the pieces of silver that count in such a reference....
