If the gypsy archetype fascinates you, Marlene Schiwys Gypsy Fugue will take you on a journey that will resonate in your bones forever. This is a beautiful and soulful book. Marion Woodman For Marlene Schiwy, the gifted author of this autobiographical work, soul became spontaneously manifest and visible in the image of the gypsy. In this mesmerizing collection of reflections, memories and dreams, she reveals her personal living myth. Gypsy is my soul is her declaration as she unfolds the story of her self-discovery as a personality. From earliest years to what are now the later stages of her life, she has lovingly and loyally minded this symbolic figure and made it her own. This is a wondrous story of emergence, a song of the soul in the voice of a strong contemporary feminine personality. Murray Stein, author of Minding the Self and Jungs Map of the Soul Guided by the spirit of the Gypsy, Marlene Schiwy has travelled down to plumb the depth of her own psyche, and to bring back the gold of a truly archetypal memoir. In Gypsy Fugue, she offers a personally vulnerable and self-questioning story filled with scholarly explorations, synchronicities, Jungian insights and the wisdom gleaned through years of rich contemplation and symbolic dream. I bow to her tenacity, her fierce spirit and her generous heart. Ann Mortifee, Member of the Order of Canada, Canadian singer, composer, and author of In Love with the Mystery
