Charles Taylor wrote that we live in the Secular Age. It often seems that our default setting is to see nature as an intricate machine, the self as isolated and individualistic, and time as linear and not meaningful. But sometimes we all find this description of the world stiffling and cramped. We need something to help us escape into the deeper reality that lays all around us, and to reawaken us to the wonder of the world. In today's podcast, I talk with Boze Herrington about how Fairy Stories might help us do just that. We talk about Chesterton, Tolkien, The Oh Hellos, Madeleine L'Engle and everything in between!
