"...No one can own a story any more than we can own people. Once created, stories are free living beings with their own journeys... ".

This lovely newspaper article titled 'How the Buddha became a Christian saint' is about how stories travel and adapt to circumstances and finally return to their home country in an almost unrecognizable format.

In her brilliant use of stream-of-consciousness narrative, Ali Smith envelops you in worlds that are very much like our own, but with slightly sideways bits. The vividness, precision of language, and deep emotion throughout this collection made it a delight to read.

I got the bright idea that my next #24in48 read should be this short story collection by Scottish author Ali Smith #winterofwomen17

Happy birthday to the amazing Ali Smith, lovely human and expert crafter of essay, novels, and stories (and other stories) 🎉
