In the second of our Summer episodes, Simon Horobin unpacks CS Lewis's assertion that great stories allow ideas to be experienced rather than merely thought about; James Cary explores the Disneyfication of the Monasteries in Shardlake and Sylvianne Aspray asserts that it's our mistakes that set us apart from the machines.
