I haven't read this book yet but it sounds marvelous. This is a review from the FT. FT.com / Arts & Weekend / Books - 'The Seven Basic Plots: Why We Tell Stories', Christopher Booker (Financial Times) which discusses seven basic plots of all story-telling. I confess fascination with the notion that only seven plots are the analytical residue of all story telling. At 730 pages it promises to be quite a read, but certainly worth a look.
