The above quote was made by Tomas Elemans who at the time of the quote worked for PVH as the brand protection Manager. He believes that Storytelling (literature) helps us to empathize with the condition of strangers. This is what is meant by the above quote: "<em>Literature </em><em>has a way of reminding us that the stranger is not so strange".</em>

<em />

<h3>How, according to Tomas Elemans does literature help us to connect with the stranger?</h3>

<em />

Again we turn to Elemans own words. He states that when we read of and imagine being the characters in stories, it helps us <em>transcend the here-and -now</em> thus reducing the focus on our ego or feeling of self-importance while improving our reflection. He says that fiction helps us to disconnect from ourselves and access our <em>emotional</em>, <em>empathetic </em>nature which we often neglect in our daily lives.
