Pigs Eat Wolves

A radical fairy tale for adults, with delightful, nostalgic illustrations, which explains the necessity of including our dark sides-those which we deny-in all stages of our development. The metaphor of The Three Little Pigs & their relationship with the wolf is used to unlock this process of growth. What if you were the little pigs, all three of them. Who is your wolf?

"To see & accept within ourselves the full range of our humanity is all that is asked by this enlightening, entertaining, shocking, & delightful recasting of this classic tale." --Charlie Seashore, from the Introduction.

"...a metaphor of how to take one essential step in developing the community of humankind." --Gestalt Institute.Bates, Charles is the author of 'Pigs Eat Wolves' with ISBN 9780936663043 and ISBN 0936663049.
