Episode 19: The Widow of Ephesus with Daniel Morden

This week our guest is leading international storyteller Daniel Morden. I saw Daniel perform at Beyond the Border in Wales and was enraptured by his storytelling.

Daniel works with Hugh Luton to tell the Iliad and the Odyssey, and they were awarded the 2006 Classical Association prize for 'the most significant contribution to the public understanding of the classics'. Daniel has conceived and presented numerous documentaries on storytelling for BBC Radio Wales. 

In 2007 he won the Tir na n-Og Award for his book Dark Tales from the Woods and he has a number of publications available of his retellings of Celtic and Greek myths and legends.

Daniel is the host of the House of Stories podcast, in which he has in-depth discussions with the likes of Kate Tempest and Alan Moore.
