I have a few of these. I agree about Anais Nin, who I first encountered aged 18 in my first year at Uni in 1978, and I found her extraordinary. I’ve never managed to get on with Women Who Run With The Wolves. I’ve bought and handed on the book 3 times. I now have a fourth copy, unopened, on my bookshelf. I feel I SHOULD love it, SHOULD read it, SHOULD have it on my bookshelf, yet it has never touched my heart. The book I would add to your list is Belonging by Toko-Pa Turner, every paragraph is a revelation steeped in wisdom, plus If Women Rose Rooted!

I must admit I never read every word of Women Who Run with the Wolves, but it has been a game-changer for so many.
Thank you! I ordered awakening at midlife and nature & feminism from the local bookstore...
