Perhaps I should not have listened to the abridged version of this book. I enjoyed the exploration of the wild woman archetype in various cultures and contexts. These were beautifully told. Unfortunately, the connection to what we can do in our lives did not feel very strong to me, beyond vague and somewhat obvious (to me) advice like "don't find a partner who crushes all of your ideas" and "trust your gut". I enjoyed this as a quick read and as an exploration of wild women in various tales qnd folklore, but nothing deeper.
