Anyone who is a fan of James Hillman and others of the archetypal tradition will find this book a nice addition to their library of archetypal illustrations. Cobb remains true to the core ideas of archetypal psychology and elaborates Hillman through the work of various artists; Edvard Munch and Andrei Tarkofsy (in the first 2 chapters) whose works did not always resonate with the general public but which carry significance for soul which Cobb is able to demonstrate quite convincingly. I feel like Cobb genuinely knows the soul I sense.0 of 2 people found the following review helpful. Five StarsBy RichelleAbsolute genius!
