A review by mipsot
The Hero With a Thousand Faces by Joseph Campbell

5.0

An excellent book for any interested in the ongoing role of myth in human history. Campbell makes a compelling argument for the ‘monomyth’ and notes the similarities of the Hero’s Journey within a wide range of world cultures. He discusses why, to this day, our stories tend to repeat and echo much older myths. Very intriguing and a book I’ll be reading again, no doubt.
