Summary:  Humans live in landscapes of make-believe. We spin fantasies. We devour novels, films, and plays. Even sporting events and criminal trials unfold as narratives. Yet the world of story has long remained an undiscovered and unmapped country. It's easy to say that humans are "wired" for story, but "why"? In this delightful and original book, Jonathan Gottschall offers the first unified theory of storytelling.
