The hero and the goddess : the Odyssey as mystery and initiation by Jean Houston
My desert island shelf contains all my favorite books which I have encountered since I began reading decades ago. I would want these books if I could have no others.

Another invaluable companion to The Odyssey. --JJM 10/10/05
