Winterson

I think Winterson's article is most interesting in the fact that she accuses the human population of becoming obsessed with reality because of an innate fear of imagination. We are obsesssed with reality tv, biographies, etc, because we fear the steps into our inner life, our inner poetic goddess. 

Winterson also explains how she re-works traditional myths to explore innate human feelings, feelings that often take on their own persona, feelings that take a tremendous amount of imagination to understand and develop on paper. Language must force the author to find the essential human truths, to capture imagination, yet work it into the reality of human truths.
