Drawing on literary history and folklore, Stories about Stories offers an introduction to the fantasy genre's popularity and cultural importance. Reading works by figures such as J. R. R. Tolkien, C. S. Lewis, Ursula K. Le Guin, Alan Garner, Amitav Ghosh, and many others, Attebery explores both the familiar and the forgotten to produce the first comprehensive look at fantasy's uses of myth.
