Description

Originally written by Campbell in the ’40s—in his pre-Bill Moyers days—and famous as George Lucas’ inspiration for Star Wars, this book will likewise inspire any writer or reader in its well considered assertion that while all stories have already been told, this is *not* a bad thing, since the *retelling* is still necessary. And while our own life’s journey must always be ended alone, the travel is undertaken in the company not only of immediate loved ones and primal passion, but of the heroes and heroines—and myth-cycles—that have preceded us.
