The Thirteen Curses

Recommended by
Michelle Harrison

A captivating fantasy novel filled with magic, folklore, and mystery, this story follows the journeys of characters navigating a world of hidden curses, fairytales, and dangerous secrets where empathy, bravery, and cleverness are required to break dark spells.

Connection to Hatch: To truly humanise the world, we must never lose our sense of curiosity, imagination, and storytelling. Literature like The Thirteen Curses reminds us to look beneath the surface, much like Hatch's reminder to "don't judge a book by its cover." In business, "curses" often look like toxic legacy cultures or rigid, outdated mindsets. It takes creative problem-solving, courage, and a deep understanding of human narrative to break these patterns and transform workplace cultures.
