Joseph Campbell: A Fire in the Mind
"Joseph Campbell was an amazing, abundant, humane man. This book, by incorporating his journals, letters, and a massive offering of his intellectual sources, helps us understand how, in this half-dead world, such a character comes to be." (Robert Bly, poet and mythologist)"A marvelous account of the life of a man who fell in love with stories and became our greatest teller of timeless myths. A feast for the mind, the imagination, and the heart." (Sam Keen, author of Fire in the Belly)"Joseph Campbell: A Fire in the Mindignites the soul of the reader with immortal longings. To read it is to swim in a river of old with Joseph Campbell, whose capacity for knowledge was as vast as his passion for living. This potent telling of the quest of one who brought life to myth and myth to life is the book of the year." (Jean Houston, author of The Search for the Beloved)
