Women Who Run With the Wolves

by Clarissa Pinkola Estes

I’m apparently on a binge of revisiting old classics, and Women Who Run With the Wolves by Clarissa Pinkola Estés continues to resonate deeply. With its rich tapestry of historic fables and ancient lore, the book remains a powerful exploration of the wild woman archetype and the reclaiming of feminine instinct. Even after decades and a few reads, it does not disappoint; each story and interpretation still feels both timeless and newly relevant, offering insight, strength, and a sense of connection to something much older and wiser.
