Review: Iron John: A Book About Men
Gebruikersrecensie - Fellini - GoodreadsBly stretches a lot of nothing into nothing. So forced it makes your eyes roll. He even quotes his own written poetry and analyzes it looking from a detached perspective. You should be smarter than this. Volledige recensie lezen
Review: Iron John: A Book About Men
Gebruikersrecensie - Timothy Takach - GoodreadsI liked this and what Bly has to say about contemporary man.

Review: Iron John: A Book About Men
Gebruikersrecensie - GoodreadsThe author heavily overlays his own personal philosophy onto the folktale of Iron John. While I appreciate his effort to reclaim our inheritance as men, I just couldn't follow him to his conclusions. Not what I was looking for, and ultimately was disappointed.
