Journal Entry 1 by keithpp from Farnborough, Hampshire United Kingdom on Friday, September 28, 2007
In 1909, accompanied by Carl Jung, Sigmund Freud visted New York. His one and only visit to the US. He was to deliver a series of lectures on psychoanalysis at Clark University. The honoury degree awarded by Clark University was the first public recognition of Freud and his work.

Despite its apparent success, Sigmund Freud always referred to his New York trip as traumatic period in his life.

Weaving fact and fiction, Jed Rubenfold in The Interpretation of Murder, gives a ficticious account of the time Freud spent in New York.

On the morning Freud arrives in New New York, a stunning debutante is found bound and strangled in her penthouse apartment. The following night, heiress Nora Acton is found tied to a chandelier in her parents' home. She has been wounded and appears to have lost the power of speech and is unable to recall what happened.

Freud is called in to probe her mind to see if he can uncover what has happened and at the same time, solve the previous murder.
