The Storyteller

The Storyteller by Mario Llosa reinforced many of my ideas on how important stories are. We as a people can not survive without stories, stories are what keep traditions and culture alive. Why would we even want to go through life without knowing the rich meanings behind everything that is apart of our worlds? I for one would hate such a drab boring existence. Before reading this book i already had a intense love for stories, growing up i was always the annoying kid who'd ask a million questions. I appreciate what this book has taught me about different cultures and the interesting little quirks and strange aspects of South American traditions.
