How do we construct and deconstruct the stories that surround us and direct us in everyday life? Ewa Marcinek and Anna Wojtyńska describe how cultural narratives explain the lives we live and create our image of the world. They discuss the importance of storytelling in understanding and negotiating the meaning of our shared realities. Ewa proposes gossip as an effective negotiation strategy in countering master narratives.
