Krátky popis
THE ENDURING MYTH THAT MAKES US HUMAN What makes a hero? Who better
to answer that question than Lee Child... `It's Lee Child. Why
would you not read it?' Karin Slaughter `I don't know another
author so skilled at making me turn the page' The Times In his
first work of nonfiction, the creator of the multimillion-selling
Jack Reacher series explores the endurance of heroes from Achilles
to Bond, showing us how this age-old myth is a fundamental part of
what makes us human.He demonstrates how hero stories continue to
shape our world - arguing that we need them now more than ever.
From the Stone Age to the Greek Tragedies, from Shakespeare to
Robin Hood, we have always had our heroes. The hero is at the
centre of formative myths in every culture and persists to this day
in world-conquering books, films and TV shows.But why do these
characters continue to inspire us, and why are they so central to
storytelling? Scalpel-sharp on the roots of storytelling and
enlightening on the history and science of myth, The Hero is
essential reading for anyone trying to write or understand fiction.
Child teaches us how these stories still shape our minds and
behaviour in an increasingly confusing modern world, and with his
trademark concision and wit, demonstrates that however civilised we
get, we'll always need heroes.
