Episode 5: Jennifer Egan The Thoughtful Bro

    • Books

With Pulitzer Prize-winner Jennifer Egan, discussing The Candy House, her critically-acclaimed follow-up to A Visit From The Goon Squad. Egan discussed how great prose voice is like great cooking stock (if it’s good, anything you throw in becomes good, too); clues to finding your calling in both art and life; and how she writes blind on first drafts, trying to be a channel for the unconscious.
