A patient, recalling a person, an event, an emotion, quite unexpectedly supplies a link from a life in the present to one of the durable myths of our culture. In this moment, the myth becomes a mirror, revealing to the patient the source of disturbance and pain in a pattern of behavior that often stretches a year or longer. The healing process begins. The myth, \"eternity breaking into time\" in Rollo Mays's words, becomes the focal point of recovery.Through tracing myths – whether from classical Greece and Dante's Middle Ages, European legend (Faust and the prototype of Sleeping Beauty), or contemporary American life (Jay Gatsby) — and relating them to the dreams and associations he encounters in his own practice, Dr. May provides meaning and structure for all who seek direction in a morally confusing world.In this, perhaps the finest achievement of a great therapist, Rollo May writes with \"the grace, wit, and style: for which he recently received the Gold Medal of the American Psychological Society.","brand":"Rollo May","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48694272295203,"sku":"9780393331776","price":20.96,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0885\/5437\/3411\/files\/9780393331776_p0_v3_s600x595.jpg?v=1718588643","url":"https:\/\/glenthebookhouse.com\/products\/the-cry-for-myth-rollo-may","provider":"BOOKDP4","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
