"In every moment, we are part of the infinite stories that the universe
is telling us and that we are telling the universe."
Packed with ideas and inspiration, The Mystery Feast offers numerous
pathways into the magical world of storytelling. Beginning with a poem,
"All we do," Booker prize-winning novelist Ben Okri presents his
considered thoughts on the purpose and meaning of stories, concluding
with a series of condensed "Notes to the modern storyteller." The
collection is completed with a "stoku"--a brief tale on the theme.
Based on decades of honing his art, this stimulating booklet gives a
glimpse into the mind of a master of contemporary storytelling.
