Über diesen Titel

SUNDAY TIMES BESTSELLER

‘If you want to write a novel or a script, read this book’ Sunday Times

‘The best book on the craft of storytelling I’ve ever read’ Matt Haig

‘Rarely has a book engrossed me more, and forced me to question everything I’ve ever read, seen or written. A masterpiece’ Adam Rutherford

Why stories make us human and how to tell them better.

There have been many attempts to understand what makes a good story – but few have used a scientific approach.

In this incisive, thought-provoking book, award-winning writer Will Storr demonstrates how master storytellers manipulate and compel us.

Applying dazzling psychological research and cutting-edge neuroscience to the foundations of our myths and archetypes, he shows how we can use these tools to tell better stories – and make sense of our chaotic modern world.

INCLUDES NEW MATERIAL.

Kritikerstimmen

"One of my absolute favourite writers." (Decca Aitkenhead)

"There’s nothing else quite like Will’s approach, with its illuminating, scientific take on storytelling. All writers, no matter what their level of experience, are likely to go away with a new understanding that will deepen and nourish their work." (Craig Pearce, screenwriter of Strictly Ballroom, Moulin Rouge and The Great Gatsby)

"Storr is irascibly good company, and has something approaching genius for marshalling his material." (Sunday Times)

This book goes really deep in human psychology. It was in lightning and i had a lot of AHA moments. LOVE IT!

WTF wow

A great book, just as the other commentators say.

But:
1. It is frequently a problem to have the author read his or her own book. Mr. Storr obviously knows his subject well. It often took me more time to be sure that I was following him. Another reader might have understood better that sometimes you have to slow down to get your point understood.
2. There were many moments when I thought that I would have liked to read one of his numerous examples twice or dwell on some of his thoughts. A book in my hand would have helped there.

Yes, but is this really for audio?

only on second listen with thorough notetaking i realized what an amazing book it is full of interesting scientific theories that are worth exploring. if you love to dive into modern psychology, get this book. In short this book is all about the art(& science) of character development instead of a generic plots and twists which gives it an interesting depth. this may not sound practical at first but will shine a new light on your approach to writing and understanding storys (and challenges our model of reality by exploring how we create storys in our mind all the time)

had to listen twice to overcome skepticism

Incredible how central to our own experience and psychology stories are. The book provides a new take on old narratives.

Excellent and insightful

Mehr science als story

This book is very insightful, well-written and read by its author - who does a great job reading it.

I now want to buy copies and...

The best take on storytelling in a more general sense than just writing.
I was interested in a book that describes the art of storytelling in everyday life, not just writing.
All our actions, jobs, relationships are storytelling. The book reveals the details of why it works this way, although it's more focused on writing.

The best take on storytelling so far

I recommend this to every aspiring author and/or writer out there! It's a very (!) interesting book and shares many interesting tidbits. I learned a lot and am already planning to relisten to it (to make sure I caught all the gold nuggets!)
Very much recommend!

A delight! A must read!

The book contains facts and the author often underlines them with specific examples. I found the book an easy listen. I mostly enjoyed the author's engaged and expressive style. I disliked that there were some distortions in the higher pitches of his voice.

Good Combination of Science and Examples
