Author Meets the Critics
Richer by Asia
par
Author Meets the Critics brings writers before a panel of critics for a discussion of their work and ideas. The program centers on the exchange between an author and reviewers, giving listeners a chance to hear a book considered from more than one perspective.
This recording features a discussion of Richer by Asia. The conversation format offers a mix of the author's own account and the critics' questions and responses, making it a literary program built around argument, explanation, and close attention to a book.
Rather than presenting a dramatized story, the broadcast offers an opportunity to listen in on a direct exchange about writing and criticism. Its appeal lies in hearing an author respond to scrutiny and in following how different readers interpret the same work.
