Resumen del Editor

In this national best-seller, Robert Bly explores the idea of the missing father in contemporary society. He draws upon a cornucopia of legend and literature - as varied as the poetry of William Blake, Jungian psychology, and Sioux initiation rituals - to encourage men in their pursuit of the “inner warrior.”

A must read for every man, boy, mother, and father

loved the book, and the truth is stated above. a must read for every boy, man, mother and father. calls into question social bubbles and offers a freedom of male growth

best book for men

I loved it. it will be read annually. if I ever have a son, I'll read it to him

Thought provoking and ground breaking.

This book does a wonderful job at telling the story of the journey into manhood.

A MUST FOR MEN

This book in addition to “King, Warrior, Magician, Lover” were life changing. A must read for men looking to find their way.

Superior

Difficult to convey Robert Bly. Ferrone delivered. I hear Robert Bly more clearly after this interpretation. Superior.

The words to your feelings

Honored to have someone more adept with their words describe and break down the different “feelings” and nature of masculinity. Easily relatable to current times and the key we are missing in our culture. I hope this book stokes the noble flames inside your belly like it has mine, cheers.

Pretty deep but also pretty weird

This book was very deep but sometimes I felt like he was just speaking gibberish. But I still liked it

Timeless

This book is now a classic that is foundational to various segments of the greater men's movement, but definitely the book for what became known as the mythopoetic men's movement. An excellent resource for a deeper understanding of the soul of men. Reads almost like Joseph Campbell's "The Hero With A Thousand Faces" with many references to classic literature as well as more modern psychology, sociology, and anthropology. All of it expressed in a more streamlined and simple manner, thereby making it easy to understand as a much more practical book and not something highly academic.

Solid Mens book

Loved it, solid Mens book. Why do I need so many words for my review.

A very important read

A wonderful tail, masterfully told and beautifully read. This story and the analysis by Robert Bly is a testament to the power of our individual nature as human beings. It’s reminds us that it’s good to engender your self as male or female and that not doing so is so detrimental to us individually and collectively as a society. Be proud of masculinity. Embrace mentorship.
