Author Meets the Critics

Author Meets the Critics brings writers into conversation with critics about books and ideas. The program’s central appeal is the direct exchange between an author discussing a work and reviewers offering their responses, giving listeners a chance to hear differing perspectives in the participants’ own words.
Presented as a radio discussion, the show focuses on literary conversation rather than dramatic storytelling. Its format invites listeners to follow the arguments, explanations, and judgments as they unfold, with the author’s account of the work set alongside critical appraisal.
The result is a thoughtful, conversational listening experience for anyone interested in books, criticism, and the lively give-and-take between creators and reviewers.
