What’s the power in telling a good story, and telling it well? Neil Gaiman is the man to ask.
A leading purveyor of fantasy across comics, novels, TV and cinema, he is above all a storyteller. Whether he’s turning death and dream into flesh-and-blood characters, as with his 1989 genre-busting comic book “The Sandman”, which has just been adapted by Netflix…Or his fiction bestsellers like “American Gods” and “Anansi Boys' ' which populate the modern world with figures from ancient myth, and children’s literature such as Coraline.
It makes sense then that Neil Gaiman works with The Moth team. Described as a ‘storytelling movement’, The Moth, helps people to uncover and craft their own unique tales, drawing on real life experiences, before delivering them to packed-out audiences around the world – in a popular radio show and podcast that is downloaded over 90 million times a year. We talked about their new book, cancel culture and walking into lamp-posts while he read as a boy.
