In his powerful bestseller The Soul's Code, James Hillman brilliantly illuminated the central importance of character to our spiritual and emotional lives. Now, in this magnificent new book, Hillman completes his exploration of character with a profound and revolutionary reflection on life's second half. "Character requires the additional years," declares Hillman. "The last years confirm and fulfill character." Far from blunting or dulling the self, the accumulation of experience concentrates the essence of our being, heightening our individual mystery and unique awareness of life. Drawing on his grounding in Jungian psychology, Hillman explains here the archetypes and myths that govern the self's realignment in our final years. The Force of Character follows an enriching journey through the three stages of aging--lasting, the deepening that comes with longevity; leaving, the preparation for departure; and left, the special legacy we each bestow on our survivors. Along the way the book explores the meanings and often hidden virtues of characteristic physical and emotional changes, such as loss of memory, alterations in sleep patterns, and the mysterious upsurge in erotic imagination. Steeped in the wisdom of a lifetime, radiant with Hillman's reading in philosophy, poetry, and sacred texts, charged with a piercing clarity, The Force of Character is a book that will change--and affirm--the lives of all who read it.Binding Type: Paperback

Best tote bag ever!!
Size: One Size, Color: Black
It's big and sturdy enough for my laptop and other stuff. The best part is that it's pretty and looks great. It's not heavy and it's comfy. You can carry it by hand or on your shoulder. Everyone always asks me where I got it. It's totally worth it. I love Amazon, and thanks for the awesome product.

Affordable but still feels solid
Size: One Size, Color: Taupe
This is a great everyday tote bag. I use this as my weekday commuter purse. It has plenty of room to throw the random things that accumulate throughout the day. The material is soft but with just enough structure so it doesn’t flop over when you set it down. It’s thick but not heavy. The handles are large enough to sling over the shoulder, depending on your size. Overall, I’m so happy with this purchase. Great value for the money and it looks good too!

Cute and soft
Size: One Size, Color: Tan, Size: One Size, Color: Tan
Returned it. It did not stay close. Wanted to use as a cute diaper bag alternative. But if you don’t carry a lot of stuff, it might work for you. Very cute butter, soft material.
