At a time when we are all confronted by not one, but many crossroads in our modern lives - identity, technology, trust, politics, and a global pandemic - celebrated mythologist and wilderness guide Martin Shaw delivers Smoke Hole: three metaphors to help us understand our world, one that is assailed by the seductive promises of social media and shadowed by a health crisis that has brought loneliness and isolation to an all-time high.

Story4.5 out of 5 stars 24
Joseph Campbell, arguably the greatest mythologist of the twentieth century, was certainly one of our greatest storytellers. This masterfully crafted book interweaves conversations between Campbell and some of the people he inspired, including poet Robert Bly, anthropologist Angeles Arrien, filmmaker David Kennard, Doors drummer John Densmore, psychiatric pioneer Stanislov Grof, Nobel laureate Roger Guillemen, and others. Campbell reflects on subjects ranging from the origins and functions of myth, the role of the artist, and the need for ritual to the ordeals of love and romance.

Story4 out of 5 stars 3
James Hillman was a past master of alchemical psychology. This field uses metaphors derived from ancient alchemy to elucidate deep structures in the creative imagination. Creative processes are not random. By studying alchemical psychology we come to understand ourselves and other humans in surprising ways that frequently diverge sharply from the habitual understandings we have unconsciously absorbed from the cultures in which we were raised.

Publisher's Summary
Plato called it “daimon”, the Romans “genius”, the Christians “guardian angel”; today we use such terms as “heart,” “spirit,” and “soul.” While philosophers and psychologists from Plato to Jung have studied and debated the fundamental essence of our individuality, our modern culture refuses to accept that a unique soul guides each of us from birth, shaping the course of our lives. In this extraordinary best seller, James Hillman presents a brilliant vision of our selves, and an exciting approach to the mystery at the center of every life that asks, “What is it, in my heart, that I must do, be, and have? And why?”
Drawing on the biographies of figures such as Ella Fitzgerald and Mohandas K. Gandhi, Hillman argues that character is fate, that there is more to each individual than can be explained by genetics and environment. The result is a reasoned and powerful road map to understanding our true nature and discovering an eye-opening array of choices - from the way we raise our children to our career paths to our social and personal commitments to achieving excellence in our time.

Not up to the standard of Hillman's usual work
This could have been an essay. Instead, it was a rambling, repetitive piece of something that ignores all science and understanding of cognitive-behavioral research and the impact of trauma to present another forced either/or when it should be explored as a both/and. The acorn theory, or fate, or destiny or character is interesting to add to nature/nurture philosophizing and research, but this acorn theory should have been put in a nutshell, not a tome.

Great book; Abysmal reading
This is a great book. But I recommend reading it rather than listening to it. It is the worst audible production I have ever experienced. If Hillman had any say about who was chosen to read this book, it makes me question every premise in it. After all, this book is about one of the most beautiful, majestic subjects imaginable: the soul! Yet the reading is mechanical and its editing the worst I have ever listened to. It is as if the reader was not paying any attention to what he was actually reading. He appeared to be incapable of integrating the ideas or simply just did not care. Either way, it was horrible. I was forced to give at least a one for performance. But on a different scale of -5 to 5, I would give this reader a -5. These words deserve better!

Did not care for “this book”. Get ready to hear the phrase “this book” a LOT. Do not recommend in the slightest.

loved the voice
Just had to write to say I rather enjoyed the narrator. I would suggest listening to a sample of any book before you buy it first to be sure. But I thought they did a great job.
This book is amazing as well, Hillman really makes me think about things in a new way.

Great book, so-so audio
The book is fantastic, but the audio with its many post production edits at inconsistent levels is at times quite diestracting.

Oh, what value!
This work brims with syntopic analysis from Plato to Jung. One can feel it swath through both cult and culture all the while keep steady hand fixed on truth. Anything more might be a disservice to the potential reader!!

Distractingly poor narration
Interesting but dry presentation of the “Acorn Theory.” The narration was inconsistent with frequent changes in the tone of voice that did not correspond to the needs of the content. I don’t know how this made it through quality control. (This is my very first negative review after listing to scores of audiobooks)
