Book excerpt: It has often been argued that literature that tries to copy reality can't succeed, because the world is one thing, and words another. This is to forget that ordinary daily life is already full of words and images and stories: we spend our days talking and writing about what's going on, what happened, and who might be feeling what about whom and why. Everyday Stories makes us think again about the ordinary life we are in, day afterday and day by day: always the same, and always slightly changing. Entering into the single day, drawing out the stories that surround us, this book goes into everyday stories of many descriptions, old and new:both in literature and in that story-laden place and time we call real life.
