核心要点
The Wilderness Within: Reclaiming Authentic Masculinity
Iron John begins with a provocative premise: modern men have lost touch with their primal masculine energy. This disconnection leaves them adrift-either emotionally distant like the "Fifties male" or passive and uncertain like the "soft male" who emerged in the 1960s. Neither archetype represents complete masculinity. The Wild Man-not a savage brute but a figure of instinctual wisdom-has been caged by civilization, leaving men feeling incomplete and uncertain about their identity. What if the path to authentic manhood isn't found in rejecting masculinity but in diving deeper into its mythic roots? This question has made the book a touchstone for millions seeking to understand what healthy masculinity might look like in our complex world.
