Some of Fodor&#8217;s other works, such as &#8220;Motives of Chronic Constipation,&#8221; take a similar approach of linking past memories and the subconscious to the moment of birth, leaning more into Freud&#8217;s style of analysis which emphasizes sexual interpretations.<br \/>\n\u00a0<br \/>\nPamphlet &#8220;Nightmares of Falling,&#8221; Nandor Fodor LL.
