Where do stories come from, and how do we come to know them?
Daughters listen with wonder to their grandmothers' tales.
Journalists have their trusted sources. Writers of storybooks draw
unconsciously from the works of their predecessors. It is as if
every story has within it an infallible truth, contained in the
echo of its original telling. The storyteller recounts the tale.
The listener hears, learns and remembers. In due course they will
retell the same tale, adding in something of their own. And so
listeners in time turn into storytellers. This inspiring book
brings together the stories from across the world of listeners who
themselves became storytellers. They reveal who influenced them the
most, what drew them further in, what they learnt, and what they
now wish to share with new generations. Tips, tools and tales: read
this book, and take your turn.
