Episode Description

Hi Everyone,

“The Depletion Prompts” was first published in The New Yorker on October 25, 2021, and is available ⁠here.⁠

Here’s a link to two other stories discussed during our interview:

Vladimir Nabokov's “Signs and Symbols.”

Virginia Woolf’s “The Mark on the Wall.”

Next month, I’ll be talking to Cleo Qian about her story, “Monitor World” first published in Shenandoah. Check out our discussion here on Substack!

Cheers!

Kelly
