A superb, inspiring read. -GABOR MATÉ, author of The Myth of NormalFrom \"one of the greatest storytellers we have\" (Robert Bly), an urgent invitation to allow the oldest stories-and the Greatest Story-to reshape our own.Theres an old Irish belief that if you arent wrapped in a cloak of story you will be unprepared for what the world will hurl at you. You remain adolescent at just the moment a culture worth its salt requires you to become a real, grown, human being.In Liturgies of the Wild, acclaimed mythographer, storyteller and Christian thinker Martin Shaw argues that we live in a myth-impoverished age and that such poverty has left us vulnerable to stories that may not wish us well. Drawing on the ancient technologies of myths and initiatory rites, Shaw provides a road to wholeness, maturity and connection. He teaches us to read a myth the way it wants to be read; provides vivid retellings of tales powerful enough to carry you through lifes travails; and shows you how to gather and reshape your own thrown-away stories. Most vividly, he shares how these ancient technologies led him-unexpectedly-to Christ, the True Myth, by way of a thirty-year journey and a 101-night vigil in a Dartmoor forest.Combining scholarly erudition with nimble storytelling in the tradition of C.S. Lewis and J.R.R. Tolkien, Liturgies of the Wild is a thrilling counsel of resistance and delight in the face of many modern monsters.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Mia Karts","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52177828282656,"sku":"NEW0593716566","price":23.21,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0980\/7426\/3840\/files\/81Kc5QbvdwL.jpg?v=1786479842","url":"https:\/\/miakarts.com\/products\/liturgies-of-the-wild-myths-that-make-us-0593716566","provider":"Miakarts Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
