Jan Gehl’s stories are like Norse sagas—sometimes just as long. Their protagonists include well-known politicians, colleagues, family members, and neighbours from his Copenhagen neighbourhood. Much like the tales of Hans Christian Andersen and Karen Blixen, Jan Gehl’s stories bring everyday objects—a trombone, a bicycle, a front garden—to life. These seemingly ordinary things become part of the story, giving it meaning that reaches beyond cultural and geographical differences.
Until now, these stories had only been shared orally; some had even been passed from person to person, becoming stories in their own right. Now the time has come to put them into print, so that everyone can enjoy them.
