Jung's Red Book for Our Time

More about the book

The book explores the pervasive spiritual malaise in contemporary society, likening it to a "polar night of icy darkness." It examines the impact of climate change, technological advancements, and geopolitical shifts, which contribute to a sense of disorientation and urgency. The concept of "Westlessness" highlights the distractions and pressures of post-modern life, leading to widespread exhaustion and burnout. Ultimately, it critiques the absence of a unifying narrative to navigate these challenges, leaving individuals and political entities in a state of confusion.
