"The book beautifully and poetically tells the story of a man who, through a series of potent visions and experiences, comes to terms with the female archetype..The book is beautifully illustrated with photographic collages in full color. They evoke the mood of the writing and give form to its symbols." Book review.

."It reads like a fable as told by Kahlil Gibran's Prophet, though with more sensuality permitted. The tale is coherent and engaging," The Guardian, 1977.
