    WASHINGTON SQUARE by Henry James >> Comedy of Errors? Realist novel? Feminist treatise?

    05/05/2026 | 56 min
    Tune in to hear why James's 1880 New York novel might be all of the above--plus funny! The close look at the innovative, wry narrative stance is reason enough to spend an hour thinking about this slim book. Not to mention the excellent characterization, the use of satire and the send up of the Gothic meddlesome spinster aunt! Treat yourself now!

    CONVENIENCE STORE WOMAN by Sayaka Murata >> I returned to this one in the name of satire but came away with so much more.

    27/04/2026 | 56 min
    I can't remember the last time a novel evoked such strong--and opposing!--reactions. This 2018 novella appealed back then but my re-reading was even more satisfying.

    Listen in to hear the many ways Murata is a master of satire. Maybe more interestingly, take a fascinating look at sexuality in the novel via two other Murata essays. Indulge yourself in talk about this smart, unique novel now!

    TRANSCRIPTION by Ben Lerner >> Almost never do I finish a book and wonder what on earth I'll say about it.

    21/04/2026 | 1 h 24 min
    Lerner's new novel(la) is a revelation. One that deserves a LOT of our attention. It's a text that tests the limits and potentials of what fiction can do. Whether you loved it or came away wondering what the hell you just read, these ninety minutes should deepen your appreciation for this latest from one of my very favorite writers of all time.

    PNIN by Vladimir Nabokov >> This is exactly why Nabokov might be my favorite writer of all time.

    17/04/2026 | 1 h 6 min
    The Russian master's slim novel from 1958--just a year after Lolita--is such a dream. Truly one of my favorite books. We dive deep into narrative stance, satire, structure, figurative language, the campus novel and SQUIRRELS.

    KIN by Tayari Jones >> How on earth did I not read An American Marriage??

    06/04/2026 | 1 h 3 min
    The reading public had ridiculously high expectations for whatever followed Jones’s break-out bestseller—and wow have those expectations have been met. KIN might seem like a straightforward, delightful  page turner but the book is so good because of all the nuanced, complex ways that Jones develops structure, dialogue, plot, figurative language, minor characters, historical setting etc. Listen in to FULLY APPRECIATE this rich work.
