151st - At the beginning of 2013, James Robertson set himself the task of creating a new short story every day of the year, the only restriction being that each one must be exactly 365 words long. A year later, on a daily basis, the stories were published on the Internet. Now, in all their range and diversity, the 365 stories are gathered together in one volume. Some draw on elements of ancient myth and legend, others are outtakes from Scottish history and folklore; there are squibs and satires on contemporary issues and insanities, songs and ballads in disguise, fairytales, stories inspired by dreams or in the form of interviews, and personal memories and observations shaped into narratives that have universal resonances.
Underpinning all of them are insistent and vital questions: who are we? What are we doing here? What happens next? And, again and again, Robertson interrogates the matter of what a story is, and why stories are crucial to humans both as individuals and as members of families and wider communities.
All stories are read with a blackscreen background, to promote a non-stimulating calming environment for you to listen to while falling asleep.
