S2E2: "The Train" with Susan Cheever

In this episode I interview Guggenheim Fellow and Pulitzer Prize winning writer, Susan Cheever. We begin by discussing what might be Raymond Carver's most unusual story, "The Train". "The Train" is a sequel to "The Five-Forty-Eight", a beloved short story by her father, John Cheever. We met at the OSU archives in Columbus, Ohio (where Carver's papers are kept) to discuss "The Train", Raymond Carver and John Cheever's friendship, and Susan Cheever's many fine books of fiction and nonfiction.
