MYTHS FOR THE FUTURE

Whether or not one is interested in Carl Jung's archetypes or Joseph Campbell's work on mythology, this recorded seminar will give compelling insights about the broad social changes occurring today. The speaker is a world-class scholar and writer who has a mature, theatrical voice, full of passion for her subject. High drama and intensity fill the program and fit the content well. Even when the author answers questions from the audience in the last quarter of the program, her deep, sonorous voice remains powerful without being grandiloquent. Some listeners will find the recording breathy in spots and too intense everywhere, but the overall production is remarkably effective. T.W. ©AudioFile, Portland, Maine [Published: APR/MAY 96]
