the Author Of iron John Expands His Mythic Perspective To Examine American Culture At Large, And Finds Us To Be A Nation Of Squabbling Children.

walter Goodman

mr. Bly Is An Accomplished Storyteller, And His Affection For The Tales Of Many Peoples Over Many Centuries Can Be Catching. But When It Comes To The Contemporary Condition, His Propheteering Arias Seem As Out Of Control As The Nafs....no, Don't Throw His Book Out The Window. At Least Read The Fairy Tales. ''the Sibling Society'' Is By Turns Engaging And Exasperating, Suggestive And Tendentious, A Mix Of Imagination, Scholarship And Remarkable Silliness. Although He Announces, In His Take-no-prisoners Way, ''television Is The Thalidomide Of The 1990's,'' I Wouldn't Be Surprised If Mr. Bly Showed Up On Pbs Again Soon. -- New York Times
