Item Description

from the book jacket: "Within every woman there is a wild and natural creature, a powerful force, filled with good instincts, passionate creativity, and the ageless knowing. Her name is Wild Woman, but she is an endangered species. Though the gifts of wildish nature come to us at birth, society's attempt to 'civilize' us into rigid roles has plundered this treasure, and muffled the deep, life-giving messages of our own souls. Without Wild Woman, we become over-domesticated, fearful, uncreative, trapped."

"Dr. Estes collects the bones of many stories, looking for the archetypical motifs that set a woman's inner life into motion." ... "we focus on the may qualities of Wild Woman. We retrieve, examine, love, and understand her, and hold her against our deep psyches as one who is both magic and medicine."

by Clarissa Pinkola Estes
