«En toda mujer hay fuerzas poderosas pendientes de descubrir.» Mujeres que corren con los lobos es un fascinante mosaico de historias que nos ofrece una nueva visión de lo femenino y de sus posibilidades. Dentro de toda mujer alienta una vida secreta, una fuerza ponderosa llena de Buenos instintos, creatividad y sabiduría. Es la Mujer Salvaje, una especie en peligro de extinción debido a los contantes esfuerzos de la sociedad por «civilizar» a las mujeres y constreñirlas a rígidos papeles que anulan su esencia instintiva. En este libro, Clarissa Pinkola Estés revela ricos mitos interculturales, cuentos de hadas e historias (muchas de ellas relativas a su propia familia) para contribuir a que las mujeres recuperen su fuerza y su salud, atributos visionarios de esta esencia instintiva. Mediante los relatos y los comentarios de la autora, examinamos el amor y comprendemos a la Mujer Salvaje. Estés ha creado una psicología femenina en un sentido más verdadero, el que lleva al conocimiento del alma.
