Description: The Moth by Catherine Burns, The Moth, Adam Gopnik, George Dawes Green Estimated delivery 3-12 business days Format Paperback Condition Brand New Description In the tradition of book anthologies created from public radio programs such as StoryCorps and This I Believe, THE MOTH collects the best storytelling moments--most in print here for the very first time--straight from their archive of more than 3000 shows since the first Moth Evening in 1997. Publisher Description From the hit podcast and radio show, a collection of soul-bearing stories from The Moths archives. A wedding toast hone horribly awry. A rappers obsession with a Sarah McLachlan song. A death-defying stunt in a bullring. The fight to save Mother Teresas life. These are the spellbinding tales from The Moths storytellers. Inspired by friends telling stories on a porch, The Moth was born in small-town Georgia, garnered a cult following in New York City, and then rose to national acclaim with the wildly popular podcast and Peabody Award-winning weekly public radio show The Moth Radio Hour. A beloved read for Moth enthusiasts and all who savor well-told, hilarious, and heartbreaking stories.
