Story-telling, since its earliest beginnings, has drawn its power
not simply from the intrinsic fascination of a skilful narrative
but from the fact that human beings are compelled to make
'fictions' if they are to explain and come to terms with the world
they experience. This holds true, as Mr Wicker shows in the course
of a profound and wide-ranging enquiry, for the complex and often
sophisticated novels and anti-novels of our own day just as much as
for such traditional forms as myth and fairy-tale. The world
remains 'story-shaped'.
