The Life of Stories

Sometimes stories have a life of their own... literally.

Today Anya is joined by Joel Christensen to discuss how mythology acts as a living being in itself. 

Discover how stories shape the world around us... and why the movie versions never feel the same as the books.

Joel Christensen is Professor in the Department of Classical and Early Mediterranean Studies at Brandeis University. He is the author of many books, including Storylife: On Epic, Narrative, and Living Things.
