Beautiful Archetypical Imagery, Feb 10 2006
By LisaSonata - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Perseus in the Wind (Paperback)
Although more famous because of her extensive travels in Arabia, the British writer Freya Stark must not be overlooked for this wonderfully exquisite collection of essays."Perseus in the Wind" is organized by devoting an essay to a single Platonic Form such as Love, Beauty, Death, Sorrow, and Memory: those primary ideas which serve as a backdrop to modern-day Jungian archetypical motivations. Do not be intimidated by the subject matter breaching on philosophical technicalities, hoever. Stark's prose is fluid, rich, and emotional and she is comparable to the great American novelist Edith Wharton in her skills with diction.
I recommend this book to anyone who enjoys good writing and finds themselves contemplating the more sublime aspects of human consciousness.
Listmania!
