New Novel Crackles with Culture Clashes

(Frisco, Texas) – A new novel entitled “Navajo Guide” brings together Indian, black and white characters that clash over culture and personality differences. It is available from the publisher at www.Lulu.com.

Author Harold Hoffman, a film maker and advertising executive in Frisco, Texas, says the book is “the ultimate search for self and soul, and that it is based on the psychology of Carl Jung.”

The story is set in the 1960s and takes place in the Canyon de Chelly in northern Arizona on the Navajo Indian Reservation. John Billy, a young Navajo guide, takes Christi, a photographer, and Claire, an African-American writer, through the Canyon. They are researching a story on the Indians and the Canyon for a leading national magazine. An enemy of John Billy’s, a park ranger, is also involved, and a dangerous bull that escaped from a rodeo is loose in the Canyon.

Hoffman says that the archetypical journey leads to reconciliation and reveals a lot about Navajo history, curing ceremonies, myths and rites. “If you liked ‘Bury my Heart at Wounded Knee,’ you’ll love this book.”

To create the novel, Hoffman says he spent many years studying the psychology of Carl Jung and visiting the Navajos. He acknowledges the advice and assistance of Jungian Analyst Florence Wiedemann, Ph.D, who practices in Dallas, and of a Navajo couple, Cameron and Lorena Charles from New Mexico.

“Navajo Guide” is available from the publisher at www.Lulu.com. It can be downloaded on computer or purchased as a hard cover book.

The Impending Workforce Shortages And Their Effect On Workplace Culture We are seeing the beginnings of a critical worker shortage, an idea that may seem impossible especially with downsizing, mergers, off shoring of jobs as well as a weak economy; but a trend that is bound to get worse over the coming years. One of the main factors for these shortages is the shrinking birthrate. It has been on the decline since early 1960, having fallen from 30 births per 100 adults in 1910 to that of 15 births per 100 adults in 2002 with a brief surge in between on account of WW2. The worker shortages will have an impact on our organizations as well as workplaces mainly in three ways: How to Make a Cultured Pearl Pearls are created by living creatures called mollusks unlike gemstones which are created from within the earth Mollusks have a soft body and a hard shell like a snail has Liverpool Is Europe?s Capital Of Culture For 2008 Being Europe?s Capital of Culture this 2008 is not a small job Liverpool, this year?s acclaimed culture capital stands now as an ultimate host for a hundred and one exciting events that will leave its guest bedazzled CULTURE CARDS for Mumbai…and for Anyone with an Interest in India’s Changing Cultures CULTURE CARDS™ for Mumbai…and for anyone with an interest in India’s changing cultures.
