A beautiful collectable gift edition celebrating the 30 year anniversary of the ultimate cult feminist classic

Within every woman, there lies a powerful force of energy, creativity and self-knowing: their wild woman. For centuries, she has been repressed by a male-orientated value system that trivialises her emotions. Until now.

With a combination of time-honoured stories, myths, fairy tales and casework, this is the feminist book loved by over 2 million women, that will set you on a beautiful path to unleashing your inner wild.

'Everyone should read this book' Maya Angelou

'Estés points to storytelling, our ancient narratives, as a way for women to reconnect to the Wild Woman all women have within themselves, but have lost' Emma Watson

Praise for Women Who Run With The Wolves

The work shows the reader how glorious it is to be daring, to be caring and to be women. Everyone who can read should read this book.

Maya Angelou

This volume reminds us that we are nature for all our sophistication, that we are still wild, and the recovery of that vitality will itself set us right in the world

Thomas Moore, author of Care of the Soul

In a modern world that limits wisdom to 'facts' and women's access even to those, Dr Estés has restored the fire - for us all.

Gloria Steinem

A life-enhancing way to make contact with our deep feminine instincts: the wild woman within

Irish Times

All women should read this. In fact, mothers should pass the knowledge contained in these pages down to their daughters as they turn 16. It's insightful and inspirational and gets you back in touch with your authentic self.
