Produktbeschreibung
Stories are living things. They are viral. They enter us through our eyes or our ears and they take up residence inside us. Some stories are distractions and diversions, others hover on the edge of revelation. This is a collection of fifty traditional narratives – stories from that winding track that leads from nursery rhyme to the great tales of creation and redemption, by way of ballads, riddles, folk-tales, legends, epics and myths. From well-loved classics like 'Anansi Gets the Stories' and 'Gawain and the Green Knight', to the lesser-known 'Glamoury Ointment' and 'The Troll With No Heart', these tales have been shaped by countless voices and they’ve stood the test of time. They’re concentrations and repositories of human experience. They speak in the enigmatic picture-language of dreams. Unriddling the World contains the fifty wonder tales that form the heart of Hugh Lupton's repertoire and his storytelling core. Gathered together here as an homage to the powerful connection between stories and people, and the indelible mark a story can leave; these fifty are now yours to share.

Autorenporträt
Hugh Lupton’s interest in traditional music, in street theatre, in live poetry, and in myth, resulted in him becoming a professional storyteller in 1981. Hugh tells stories from many cultures, but his particular passion is for the hidden layers of the British landscape and the stories and ballads that give voice to them. Several collections of his folk tales for children and two acclaimed novels have been published, The Ballad of John Clare and The Assembly of the Severed Head. Hugh lives in Norfolk, UK.
