Format:Hardcover
This book is profoundly interesting, Woodman delves deeply into the process of feminine individuation making use of the fairy tale "Allerleirauh" which she then explores through three case studies of women who tell their story themselves.
Essential reading to all women who are seeking healing and wholeness. I found each story, which explores different stages of healing and ages of the woman, supportive and helpful. I recommend it to anyone seeking deep growth in themselves and to therapists/healers.
I'm a big fan of Marion Woodman's work. And also recommend Dancing in the Flames.

An honest and heartfelt look at woman's path.
28 Oct 1998
Format:Paperback
With this book, Marion Woodman guides us through a complex and difficult journey. Her work with women through the often painful and lonely process of coming into their own life is shared with wisdom, compassion and deep love. I have found this book to be fundamental to my growth and my process. The women who shared their stories have enriched my life and have helped guide me on my way. I've given this book as a gift to many women friends, and I feel it can be a helpful and useful tool for anyone embarking on the inner journey.

wow
20 Nov 2001
Format:Paperback|Amazon Verified Purchase
In middle age,life can seem to drag to a halt. Marion Woodman and her coauthors demonstrate that the richest part of inner work is possible when we no longer are focusing most of our energy on the outer world of our families,or our careers. the stories these women tell of their own dream journeys are almost beyond belief, and inspired me to resume dream work i abandoned years ago. the journey never ends, and Leaving My Father's House begins a whole new ring on the spiral to wholeness. my only complaint is that at times the book felt too wordy.

Required Reading For Women (& Men)
30 July 2001
Format:Paperback
If life had a reading list, this book would certainly be on it. Woodman does a supreme job of linking the women's narratives -- clarifying and filling in their experiences in archtypical and Jungian terms -- without dimming the spotlight on their individual experiences.
How long will we live our lives unwhole and blaming others (or even ourselves!) for our unhappiness? Until we all read this book and others like it, I'd guess.
