Show Notes

Today on Leonard Lopate At Large, author Ann Beattie joins Leonard for the second installment in Leonard’s Underread Book Club, the short stories of Jean Stafford. Though her first novel, “Boston Adventure” was a national best seller, earning her national acclaim, it was Stafford’s short stories—first published in The New Yorker and various literary magazines—that earned her a Pulitzer Prize.  Today,  Leonard and Ann will focus on this revered body of work that often doesn’t receive the level of attention it deserves in the modern era.
