How can o read my stories on here?

This podcast, in its simplicity and beauty, brings me so much joy. You can't control how or when things come or go. But I would miss it (so much) if it were gone.

I love listening to authors but I wish there was analysis & discussion with readers or editors like the old & new readers on the other New Yorker podcast. Questions from readers or life audience would be so interesting. Like how you watch a movie and want to discuss it after you read.,

It’s such a treat to listen to a story rather than political podcast at night. Recently, since October or so, the level of stories has been very uneven and the readers often have very strong accents which makes for difficult listening. Clearly, Editor is very keen for variety but remember we are listening not reading which is a very different experience.

These stories and in the mag are just superficial the past few years. You have had no indigenous authors but let’s not forget Zionist camp lol. Rise to the occasion. The writers are there. No Tommy Orange story for his brilliant Wandering Stars? Can you honestly not find one Palestinian author you can stand?

This podcast delivers exactly what its title promises—new fiction from The New Yorker, brought to life by the authors themselves. There’s something uniquely intimate about hearing a writer read their own work; the nuances of tone and rhythm reveal layers of meaning that might otherwise go unnoticed. I find myself eagerly anticipating each new episode, and I listen to the stories as soon as they’re posted. The variety of stories is another standout feature. From poignant character studies to gripping narratives, each episode offers a fresh perspective. The production is top-notch, and the balance between the writer’s voice and the atmospheric sound quality creates a seamless listening experience. Whether you’re a lifelong lover of literature or someone who’s looking for an engaging way to explore contemporary fiction, this podcast is a treasure trove. It’s my go-to for moments of inspiration and reflection, and I can’t recommend it highly enough.

This podcast is the best. I can’t read in a sustained way anymore, but for some reason I can still bear to listen. Something about the texture of the voice, the writer’s voice, bringing me the story. Thank you. Keep making these please.

Subscribing to the New Yorker can be frustrating! So many good stories and reports to read and so little time. The ability to listen to these short stories while doing chores is a marvelous treat. It helps whittle down the ever growing pile of partially read magazines.

Brilliant. Story, voice, pacing, breathtaking … everything I love in storytelling

I eagerly await each podcast in this series. While not all authors are great readers, most convey the meaning and mood in an authentic and personalized way, and leave me thinking about their stories for hours afterward. But a good writer does not necessarily a good reader make. Some are unlistenable, often due to unrelenting vocal fry, monotone pitch, thick accents, bursts of three or four words with no flow to the phrasing. Or, as in this week’s episode, the reader over-enunciates each word as if he is using voice recognition software or is reading words he doesn’t understand (but he wrote it!) Couldn’t listen to it.
