The Book of Lilith

This “book” would have benefited from an editor, or at least more editing from the author. It’s circuitous and confusingly laid out. Reads more as a stream of consciousness than a well thought out analysis. If you have the patience to dig thru the mess, there are some interesting tidbits. Mostly though, this book is a trainwreck.

This is an interesting little book on the subject of Adam's first wife. There were a lot of references in it but unfortunately I couldn't always distinguish between what was historical fact and which was just contemporary Jungian analysis.
What I liked about the book was it's treatment of Lilith as a sub-archetype to be explored. I found both the dream sequences of Dr. Koltuv's analysands and the folktales to be interesting in the sense of demonstrating practical views and applications of this sub-archetype.
What I didn't like was the tangled web of information which makes anyone who isn't a Jungian analyst confused as to what is objective and what is dreamed/interpreted. This book would have been better off putting the Jungian applications and illustrations into a certain section and the actual historical and mythological information into another.
Overall, I recommend this book to anyone interested in either Jungian psychology or Lilith, but with a forewarning that the information is not complete and further research will be necessary before really coming to a more academic understanding of what and who Lilith is.

This is the first book I've read about Lilith and I'm SO glad that it was. This book is well written and non-biased. It has many different references from historical sources such as Kabbalah, Torah, Poems, artifacts and a few from the old testament. All of these are beautifully weaved together to create an informative, flowing and captivating book. Many pictures of ancient artifacts. I highly recommend this book, it's nice to know more details about Lilith other than random posts from social media sources. It wasn't hard to read or understand which is a huge plus for me.

This is a story that one has to decide for themselves. Was Lillith really Adams first wife? (?).. It is good reading.

the book was just as seller said it would be.

Not really a history of Lilith. Mostly quotes from other authors, some bad sourcing.

Good book

Enjoyed it and it will be an adjunct to the details of Jewish myth that I'm researchng at this time.
