I loved the structure of this book. The late author really did her homework on this subject. It takes a mature mind and attitude to read this and appriciate it for it's greatness.

    I loved this book. I think Campbell is a storytelling genius! This was the first book I ever read of hers and have since read all but 2 and I have not been disappointed by any of her work. Please check out "What you owe me" and "Brothers and Sisters"; two of my favorite Campbell books.
