Well this is an odd little book. Robert Bly is one of my favorite poets. His work reminds me a lot of Richard Hugo but with a much more obvious debt to spiritual life. Here, Bly retells 6 far-ranging myths and shares his thoughts on each. His commitment to the Men‘s Movement can be off-putting (and it is in the first 2 interpretations), but then he settles down and remembers to just be human. There‘s poetry mixed in for good measure!
