The Science of Self

The Monkey's Paw


Listen Later

The Monkey's Paw has a classic mythical structure to it, with three wishes and an ill-considered tampering with fate, leading to a sort of punishment from the gods themselves. “The Monkey’s Paw” will appeal to a modern audience because the lessons in it seem so relatable: who hasn’t “wished” for something only to discover that it’s not at all what they really wanted?
