“Stories are the most durable texture of life for us. Not forms of societies, but stories. Stories are really what keeps everything together, in a way. When you are abandoned by stories – when you go back beyond the invention of writing, beyond the literary tradition – you feel of course lost: because one needs stories.”<\/i><\/p>\n

Have you read your Roberto Calasso? F*ck you, go get The Marriage of Cadmus and Harmony<\/a><\/i>. Or, Literature and the Gods<\/a><\/i>. Or his latest, La Folie Baudelaire<\/a><\/i>, which Elizabeth Bachner wrote about<\/a>. Calasso is a gem, and he is profiled at the Independent<\/a>.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n
