In “Iron John: A Book About Men” Bly uses initiation as the central axis of his work, which in his opinion can only come from men themselves, those who must finally break the modern status quo of the “hard” or “soft” male model, reaching a deep, life-giving and solid masculinity. Unlike Freud, who accuses the mother as the main responsible for men’s problems

Description
Robert Bly with Iron John invades the field of prose in the book “Iron John: A Book About Men”, which will shock the reader, man or woman. A 19th century fairy tale by the Brothers Grimm, relatively recent, but also extremely old in its themes and motives, forms the framework of a work that comes to record with allegory and sensitivity the agonizing path of man towards maturity. In “Iron John: A Book About Men” Bly uses initiation as the central axis of his work, which in his opinion can only come from men themselves, those who must finally break the modern status quo of the “hard” or “soft” male model, reaching a deep, life-giving and solid masculinity. Unlike Freud, who accuses the mother as the main responsible for men’s problems.
