Episode 469: George Saunders

George Saunders is the author of eleven books. His latest is A Swim in a Pond in the Rain: In Which Four Russians Give a Master Class on Writing, Reading, and Life. ”I really have so much affection for being alive. I really enjoy it. And yet, I’m a little negative minded in a lot of ways too, like I really think things tend to be fucked up. ... To get that on the page—to sufficiently praise the loveliness of the world without being a sap, and also lacerate the world for being so goddamn mean—to do those in the same story would be a great aspiration. And I haven’t gotten there yet.” Show notes: georgesaundersbooks.com Saunders on Longform Saunders on the Longform Podcast (Jan 2014) Saunders' Story Club newsletter 16:00 "First Thohts on Reviision" (Story Club • Dec 2021) 28:00 "The Great Divider" (GQ • Jan 2007) 48:00 "Sea Oak" (New Yorker • Dec 1998) Learn more about your ad choices.
