Abstract

Every family has a collection of stories they love telling and retelling, over and over. These stories might be happy, they might be sad. You know the kind of thing: the stories told after a few drinks at Christmas: stories of miscreant uncles, shock bereavements and hilarious mishaps. These stories bind the family together.

‘After nourishment, shelter and companionship, stories are the things we need most in the world.’

Philip Pullman
