Episode 153: The Dinner Party Download / Eavesdropping: Nathaniel Rich and his Significant Object

soundicon.jpgEavesdropping: Nathaniel Rich and his Significant Object

For the upcoming collection “Significant Objects” (out July 17), 100 noteworthy writers received 100 trinkets and wrote backstories for them. The objects were then re-posted on eBay alongside the tales and, amazingly, proceeded to sell for up to 100 times the initial purchase price. Today we overhear novelist Nathaniel Rich reading his story about a magical and dangerous rhino figurine. (Nathaniel also contributes to the New York Times, and his second novel, “Odds Against Tomorrow,” will be published next year.)
