Customer Review

I had heard and read a lot about "storytelling", therefore I bought the book That is the foundation of everything: "A hero with a thousand faces".

As I am not very familiar with the topics Joseph Campbell worked on, this book was very hard to read for me. Without Explanations from other authors and from the internet I would not be able to extract the basic ideas thathave become crucial in today's marketing.

If you are a marketing specialist interested in practical storytelling, buy another book. HOWEVER, if you are interested in the original, buy this one.
