Synopsis
From storytelling phenomenon The Moth, a new collection of forty-five unforgettable true stories about finding the courage to face the impossible, drawn from the very best ever told on their stages Carefully selected by the creative minds at The Moth, and adapted to the page to preserve the raw energy of live storytelling, OCCASIONAL MAGIC features voices familiar and new. Alongside Adam Gopnik, Krista Tippett, Andrew Solomon, Rosanne Cash, and Ophira Eisenberg, storytellers from around the world share times when, in the face of challenging situations, they found something--whether a power, strength, or passion--that they never knew they possessed--and a little magic happened. With courage and humor, they encourage us all to be more open, vulnerable, and alive.
