“The writing of ‘The Courage Machine,’ which covers ten years, was retarded by illness. For a long time I lived beside death. But I had a presentiment that something essential—something foreseen in New York—would develop for me during these last years. I was not mistaken.

“This book follows an evolution which, for me, is not a curve but an ascending line. There is a beginning and an end; a new beginning, an advance, and a new search; then again an advance—but this time on an essential plane, where the great events are inner ones.”

Georgette Leblanc’s first encounter with the celebrated mystic, teacher and philosopher, George Ivanovitch Gurdjieff, was the turning point of her life. Impressed by his vast knowledge and “unknown doctrine,” she attended his Institute at the Château du Prieuré in Fontainebleau-Avon for two years.

From then on, she continued to live according to his principles, absorbing his doctrine more and more deeply. Her effort to incorporate what she had assimilated during her years with Gurdjieff is recorded in the last part of the book.

    2.0 out of 5 stars Disappointing fluff
    Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 3 February 2018
    Verified Purchase
    A memoir by someone who lived at the Prieuré, studied with Gurdjieff, was a friend of Margaret Anderson... Sounds promising, doesn't it?
    This slim volume is only 105 pages long, and only the last 9 pages (extracts from a diary she kept) are of much interest. Even so, this latter material is very weak.

    The vast majority of the book is pretty and creative description of the "life of an artist" struggling in New York. The substance of this book is paper thin, and does not add a jot to the rich and wide canon of fourth way literature.

    I paid about £6 to buy this book from the USA, and at that price I can't really grumble. If I'd paid £15 I'd have felt severely aggrieved!
