The Power of Myth

Joseph Campbell · ★★★★★ · 320 pages · 1988

Everyone needs to read this book especially in a world where spirituality and mythology have lost their place. The mythology that Joseph Campbell elucidates permeates throughout every culture and gives us a purpose. The thesis that I have come out of the book is that life by itself has no purpose, but myth has given us purpose. Every region and religion and though has a different metaphor but the same way of thinking about life, that it is a journey. The journey Is more important than the destination.
