The Hero with a Thousand Faces
Author Neil Gaiman, whose work is frequently seen as exemplifying the monomyth structure, says that he started "The Hero with a Thousand Faces" but refused to finish it: "I think I got about half way through "The Hero with a Thousand Faces" and found myself thinking if this is true—I don't want to know. I really would rather not know this stuff. I’d rather do it because it's true and because I accidentally wind up creating something that falls into this pattern than be told what the pattern is."Many scholars and reviewers have noted how closely J. K. Rowling's popular "Harry Potter" books hewed to the monomyth schema.
