This is a book I pick up when I am confused. When I don’t feel like I am moving in the right direction. When I’ve spent months unaligned with my true nature. When I need a truth that isn’t coated in sugar. This is a book I pick up when I want to hug and dance with the dreamer, the lover and the artist inside me.
Woman Who Run with the Wolves by Clarissa Pinkola Estés embodies everything I love about literature. Taking centuries old folktales and infusing it with an enrapturing poetic voice, Estes demonstrates how storytelling over centuries has been the unaging compass that directs us to the forgotten truth of our innerselves.
