  • Summary

  • On Read to Me, we practice the essential, joyous skill inside great writing: listening. We listen for what we love in the work, and then put words to why it's so, so good. 

    Today, we read from The Days of Afrekete by Asali Solomon. (And hear my son build with legos in the deep background.) We get to see how the author isolates two college-student characters (a senior from herself, a freshman from the world) with body detail, relationships to books, and physical space. But we also get to see how the writing turns that double isolation into an inevitable, luscious meet-cute.

    The podcast comes from Read to Me Literary Arts. You have a gift for writing. Here is where you can open it — with writing groups, coaching, book programs, and more. www.readtomeliteraryarts.com
