Story
Robert Bly - one of the most compelling mythologists and storytellers of our time - captures the imagination in two live recordings. In The Human Shadow, Bly takes us on a thought provoking and entertaining journey exploring our "shadow" through poetry, music, and storytelling. What Stories Do We Need? reminds us that the mythology we have inherited is often defective. Just as the church refused to accept the reality Galileo saw in his telescope, literalists have removed the dark soul images that nourished our ancestors from mythology.

What does it mean to be a man in the modern world? Throughout history, being a man has meant different things. Maybe being a man was about being a good hunter, or a good soldier, a good businessman, or maybe good with women. Hard Times Create Strong Men examines what it means to be a man in the modern world relative to money, sex, religion, and politics. This audiobook examines what worked and what doesn’t work based on proven history instead of feelings.

In this contribution to the emerging men's movement, Robert Moore, a Jungian psychoanalyst and Douglas Gillette, a mythologist, examine the inner King - one of the four archetypes on the male psyche. The inner King integrates power and nurturing, firmness and caring, courage and creativity, self-affirmation and self-sacrifice. From his central position between the world of imagination and the world of action, the King within challenges every man to take up his own scepter, to dream and to make them come true.

In this final master-work of The Rational Male series, Rollo Tomassi breaks down the fundamental mechanics of Game, intersexual social skills, and the nuts and bolts psychology that makes it work. The Players Handbook is not a "how-to" book, it's a "why-it-works" book. It’s not an instruction manual—it is the missing textbook on Game and understanding intersexual dynamics. Game is an adaptive set of social skills and best practices in navigating intersexual dynamics in a modern sexual marketplace.

Americans have built an empire on the idea of “race”, a falsehood that damages us all but falls most heavily on the bodies of Black women and men - bodies exploited through slavery and segregation and, today, threatened, locked up, and murdered out of all proportion. What is it like to inhabit a Black body and find a way to live within it? And how can we all honestly reckon with this fraught history and free ourselves from its burden? Between the World and Me is Ta-Nehisi Coates’ attempt to answer these questions in a letter to his adolescent son.

Good, modern, civilized Western men today are expected to think like "citizens of the world" - obligated to everyone and no one. Natural, meaningful tribal connections have been substituted with synthetic, disposable consumer identities. Without a sense of who they are and what group they have a place in, modern men are becoming increasingly detached, disoriented, vulnerable, and ever more easily manipulated.

Great Follow Up to Way of Man

Publisher's Summary
In this national best-seller, Robert Bly explores the idea of the missing father in contemporary society. He draws upon a cornucopia of legend and literature - as varied as the poetry of William Blake, Jungian psychology, and Sioux initiation rituals - to encourage men in their pursuit of the “inner warrior.”

The unlocking of an important puzzle.
The smearing of Robert Bly by the women"s movement just showed how un-read these people were at the time. Men who desire to find out what is going on in their lives, (and the women who love them), and why many are so dis-satisfied with the way things are, can profit handsomely from this book. It is an excellent gift, hard won by Bly's years of research and experiences of working in men's groups. Of benefit to every Western male I know. This is not a once over book however. No problem; the serious reader will find themselves wanting to go back, again as they see themselves perhaps for the first time. Like the unlocking of an important puzzle.

12+ hours of incoherent babbling
This book started off very well, and my initial impression was positive. However, is the read continues, one is inundated with barely coherent rambling nonsense that ultimate serves as nothing more than filler and makes the volume twice the length of what it should be. This coupled with regular interludes of what the writer insists is poetry, but has not even the loosest similarity to even poorly constructed prose. It results in a mind numbing feast of ridiculousness that completely overshadows the meaningful and worthwhile aspects of the book.

Pivotal for Boys to Become MEN
What did you love best about Iron John?
This is a Traditional story that is told AND decoded by the great Robert Bly. Without his interpretation of this story, it would be just another Disney production. Robert Bly breaks down this story as stages of initiation that cannot be neglected or passed over in order to live a complete and whole life as a man. What do i love best about it? How the story came ALIVE in me.
Who was your favorite character and why?
My favorite character was the Boy, and his evoloving relationship with the Wild Man.
What about Richard Ferrone’s performance did you like?
i heard the one narrated by Robert Bly. i guess i'll have to listen again to Richard's version. i hope it doesn't suck.
If you were to make a film of this book, what would the tag line be?
A Call To All Men! The World Needs Us!
Any additional comments?

The antidote to wokeness and gender identity
Back when I first saw Bill Moyers' "A Gathering of Men" in 1990, the intelligence of Robert Bly has helped explain so many aspects of modern male being.
I finally read this, the book behind it, and the insights are STUNNING in today's world.
I can't see how any sane person would want to eliminate gender or confuse females with males after reading this. In fact, this book should be required reading for any parent desiring to mess with their child's sexual identity. In fact, ANYONE who is the victim of serial abuse, identity assault, or gender discrimination needs to read this amazing work.
Other that Joseph Cambell, Bly is one of the few authors of our time with Wisdom about this topic.
Heal, men, and read this book starting now.

A very important read
A wonderful tail, masterfully told and beautifully read. This story and the analysis by Robert Bly is a testament to the power of our individual nature as human beings. It’s reminds us that it’s good to engender your self as male or female and that not doing so is so detrimental to us individually and collectively as a society. Be proud of masculinity. Embrace mentorship.
