THE
WHITE
GODDESS
"T
HE 'White Goddess'
is a terrifying and protean deity
who hes many names; she is Astarte
or Luna; she has her place in avery
religion and every demonology.
• • • The book is indescribable: It
is a kind of 'Golden Bough' of
primitive myth which is fascinating
reading for its own sake. Mr.
Graves has undertaken and carried
out a work of great erudition, which
will fascinate all readers whom it
will interest: that is to say, c:lassicel
scholars, students of folk-lore, stu·
dents of analytical psychology,
amateurs of the occult, lovers of
poetry and admirers of Mr. Graves."
