À propos de cet audio

If a story reveals something about its characters, it also reveals something about the storyteller.


The story you’re about to hear is no exception.


But what could a story tell about the one who is telling it? You might ask. Well, what if, in this story, the storyteller was the Prince of them all? What if, thousands of years ago, he understood better than anyone what makes a story an invisible thread connecting humanity together? What if he told a tale you could still connect with today?


His name was Ovid. And this podcast episode is about Daphne, who became a tree; Apollo, whom she fled; and Ovid, who told their story.
