5.0 out of 5 stars an exciting way of reading myths, 4 Feb 2005
By A Customer
This review is from: Women Who Run with the Wolves: Myths and Stories of the Wild Woman Archetype (Hardcover)
I loved this book because it gave me a new way of reading folk stories and an understanding of archetypes which really opened up a lot of thought for me. I take issue with the reviewers who claim it is solely a self-help book-it offers a tool for perceiving the world in a freed up imaginitive way...and where is the hatred of men? I can't find any -only a love of humanity and an empowering vision of life lived meaningfully.

5.0 out of 5 stars Full of Powerful Insights, 30 Dec 2007
"Women Who Run With the Wolves" is roughly 500 pages long and well worth reading. It is such astounding to see or rather to understand the concept of legends and myths to bring forth the psyche of the women. There are fifteen chapters in this book, and each of them revealed new stories and they are truly enlightening.

The one story that got me to read and re-read is the "Bluebeard" story, which is really mind-boggling and chilling.

This is very enlightening read and full of powerful insights. And, I do recommend this book to anyone, even men who want to understand their female aspects and the inner nature of women.
