Women Who Run with the Wolves

Myths and Stories of the Wild Woman Archetype

By: PhD Clarissa Pinkola Estés Ph.D.

Narrated by: PhD Clarissa Pinkola Estés Ph.D.

First published three years before the print edition of Women Who Run With the Wolves made publishing history, this original audio edition quickly became an underground bestseller. For its insights into the inner life of women, it established Dr. Clarissa Pinkola Estés as one of the most important voices of our time in the fields of Jungian psychology, myth, and women's mysteries.

Drawing from her work as a psychoanalyst and cantadora ("keeper of the old stories"), Dr. Estés uses myths and folktales to illustrate how societies systematically strip away the feminine spirit. Through an exploration into the nature of the wild woman archetype, Dr. Estés helps listeners rediscover and free their own wild nature.

The magical storytelling, myths, and commentary on Women Who Run With the Wolves continue to inspire a new level of self-knowledge among listeners young and old.

Guess I know what "Abridged" means now....

Would you listen to Women Who Run with the Wolves again? Why?

Only if I could get the "entire" book on audio, didn't realize this wasn't the whole book

What did you like best about this story?

Love her storytelling!

What about Clarissa Pinkola Estes’s performance did you like?

The way she tells stories

Any additional comments?

I'm REALLY disappointed that this was so short - is there another way to get the entire book on audio?

Loved it

This audio was much easier to listen to than trying to read the book, which I found very hard going. The narration is perfect and the stories brilliant. I loved it.

Wonderful but short

This was a great listen. Ms. Estes is a wonderful narrator and her stories and interpretations of them are unique and enlightening. The only draw back is the length. This is a very shortened version of her original book. They were not kidding when they say abridged. That said, I would still recommend this audio book.

All Women Need to Listen/Read This !

I recommend this to females who are feeling a little lost on their path. There is guidance and healing in these stories and the authors insight.

Fantastic, but I wanted more!

Any additional comments?

I love this author SO MUCH and the audio book was great, but I wanted it to be SO MUCH LONGER. :/
