Description

A unique collection of essays about storytelling in our time explores the meaning and significance of this fundamental human activity. The notion that 'we are all storytellers' is relatively recent, dating back to the 1980s, when it coincided with significant changes in literature and culture.

The contributors to this book, including novelists, academics, and translators, examine the assumptions underlying our understanding of storytelling and its relationship to creativity. Their essays offer a fresh perspective on the role of storytelling in shaping our world.
