The Loneliness of the Storyteller

Ironically, the storyteller themselves often experiences profound loneliness. As they delve into the depths of their imagination, their connection to the physical world weakens. They are the solitary gatekeepers of worlds beyond our own.

While they provide solace to others through their narratives, they may struggle to find their own sense of belonging. Their tales become a veil to shield their own loneliness, creating a delicate dance between connection and solitude.

A beautiful collection of the legendary thinker’s short stories

The Storyteller gathers for the first time the fiction of the legendary critic and philosopher Walter Benjamin, best known for his groundbreaking studies of culture and literature, including Illuminations, One-Way Street and The Arcades Project. His stories revel in the erotic tensions of city life, cross the threshold between rational and hallucinatory realms, celebrate the importance of games, and delve into the peculiar relationship between gambling and fortune-telling, and explore the themes that defined Benjamin. The novellas, fables, histories, aphorisms, parables and riddles in this collection are brought to life by the playful imagery of the modernist artist and Bauhaus figure Paul Klee.
