About this title: The authors analyze a Russian folk tale, using Jungian and comparative methods to draw out what they consider its archetypal--and instructive--elements. For them, the tale is the story of the masculine coming to terms with the feminine and transcendent.

"Actually, I wish I could split my review in half in the same manner that the book is split in half by the two authors. I would give Bly two stars and Woodman five. Her interpretations of the masculine and feminine energies that we all possess (as explained through the dissemination of a Russian folktale) are fascinating. And her marvelously poetic Jungian language is mesmerizing."
"To be honest, I really loved Robert Bly's portion of the book, but couldn't get through Marion W's portion. No matter--Bly's portion is so brilliant, it's worth it. Really a must read for every writer I think."
"This book is actually based on a workshop conducted jointly by eminent authors Robert Bly and Marion Woodman, and their humanity and expressiveness come across even more effectively in the filmed version (which I have seen but unfortunately no longer have) of the workshop. Bly and Woodman are famous for their interests in the men's and women's movements in psychology, and this workshop focuses on possible interpretations, from each point of view and from a Jungian background, of the folk tale "The Maiden Tsar." The book, divided as it is into separate halves for Bly's interpretations and then Woodman's readings, loses some of the interactive flavor of the workshop itself but is still a worthwhile read from the perspectives of psychology (especially Jungian psychology), literature, and mythology. A beautifully written book."
