“We tell ourselves stories in order to live,” writes Joan Didion. But stories can also tell us. Stories can tell us how to remember or how to forget, how to hold on to experiences or how to purge ourselves of them. And stories provide a way of reaching for answers where answers are rarely found—in the realm of human behavior. Most importantly, stories can get us from one side of something to the other, from the before to what comes after: meaning.
