It's interesting enough but all I'm going to say is that you can tell this was written in 1972 lol

I tried to enjoy this book, but unfortunately I just couldn't get into it. This book is completely different to what I thought it would be. I thought it would be a breakdown for female character archetypes present in classical fairy tales and a feminist few on them. Instead, von Franz presents a Carl Jung analysis and compares fairy tales to Greek and Roman mythological stories.

While I'm sure this is interesting to many people, I am not one of them. This book simply isn't what I expected to be, so I found it difficult to finish. Oop.
