"This is a travelogue by a Jungian analyst touring sacred sites in the British Isles, especially Glastonbury, and discussing her travel and her midlife crisis in terms of Arthurian legend (Waste Land, Fisher King, Holy Grail, Avalon, etc.) If you like Jung and Arthurian legend, you may find it enjoyable. I like it. You have to have a lot of tolerance for the recounting of dreams and other sort of "woo-woo" things. Bolen also wrote "Goddesses in Everywoman" so a lot of her interpretation is based in goddess materials.
This was actually a re-read; I've had this book for a couple of years."
"I enjoyed the way the author pointed out connections between pagan traditions and Christianity in this book, as well as the various ties/aspects of women's involvement. The reason I've rated it a 3 is because there are sections that are poorly written, and thus are somewhat difficult to understand. I would also like to have seen a basic description of the Grail myth at the beginning (for those of us who don't know much about it) since much of the book presupposes this knowledge."
"I just couldn't get through this. I thought the subject material was interesting, but her writing style does not jive with me. It felt choppy and monotone, and read more like a textbook than something written about an inspiring, life-affirming journey. I tried and tried to finish this and finally gave up."
