Recensione:

"Helen Luke can strike one note with one finger with such sensitivity that it resonates forever in our soul."        
-- Marion Woodman, author of Leaving My Father's House

"Better to spend a day meditating on a single page of her writing than to read a stack of books for enlightenment."
-- Thomas Moore, author of Care of the Soul

"Helen Luke is a unique voice that carries beautiful passion, feeling, and clarity. She is clearly one of our most precious national treasures."
-- Clarissa Pinkola Estés, author of Women Who Run with the Wolves

L'autore:

Helen M. Luke was born in England in 1904. In midlife she studied at the Jung Institute in Zurich, then moved to the United States and established an analytical practice with Robert Johnson in Los Angeles. In 1962 she founded the Apple Farm Community in Three Rivers, Michigan, "a center for people seeking to discover and appropriate the transforming power of symbols in their lives." In her later years Helen Luke was the model wise woman for many people. She died at Apple Farm in 1995, and her final book, Such Stuff as Dreams Are Made On, a memoir and excerpts from her 54 volumes of journals, was published posthumously.
