Stories on the Way: Shapeshifting Stories

About Stories on the Way: Shapeshifting Stories

Stories of metamorphosis echo through time, reflected in tales of werewolves, vampires, skin-walkers and shape-shifting gods (and demons!) from around the world. Tales of transformation can also be explorations of change in the self, in culture and in the natural world.

Featuring in September:
Jenna Baer
Emma Milton
Nina Willms
Dakota Forester
Paul Gibson
Caroline Carmichael
Andrew Wilson
Selina Graham
and hosted by Janis Mackay
