About this listen

Maurice Sendak’s storytelling prowess wasn’t confined to his books: he told fantastic stories – and would get angry if you didn’t believe them—in real life. Playwright Tony Kushner recalls Sendak’s first-hand account of his childhood encounter with a dybbuk (a malicious spirit in Jewish tradition). Lynn Caponera and Jonathan Weinberg of the Maurice Sendak Foundation also share how storytelling was part of the artist’s daily routine.
