Flame, Reflection & Growth through Fantasy


Listen Later

Fantasy, gives us the chance to rehearse being human. We can find mirrors in stories showing the rawness of human struggle. Fantasy , isn’t escape it’s a simulator for life’s hard moments. Sarah J. Maas’s Throne of Glass has great beats and moments of this sense. Through Aelin,Chaol & Dorian we see idenity, recovery and autonomy.

What makes these lessons richer is how they echo the insights of thinkers and writers who have charted their own paths through resilience and growth.
