"Campbell says, "Follow your bliss!" This has meaning for me; although I prefer this stunning line from Mark Strand: "Each moment is a place you've never been.""
"I'm delighted to find at last a book by Campbell that I can recommend without hesitation. The format of this book is a superb fit with his jump-around style. In this lavishly and beautifully illustrated book, Campbell takes several core mythological symbols and explores how they have been used in different cultures. Many of the parallels he demonstrates are fascinating and extraordinary, and his gargantuan knowledge of comparative mythology is on full display. Every page contains at least one surprise. Even more than "Hero With a Thousand Faces", this is the work I would single out as Campbell's masterpiece."
"I really was not sure how to rate this book. It is a very interesting book but it is mainly images of mythic figures throughout the ages and cultures and brief explanations of their significance. Read this if you want to delve into comparative mythology, or if you are an art history major."
"Campbell's ability to capture the vast mythological histories of varying cultures continually amazes me. This book has it all, including a plethora of illustrations and art. I could re-read for a lifetime and never remember it all!"
