The New Yorker: The Writer's Voice - New Fiction from The New Yorker Folgen

Matthew Klam reads his story “Hi Daddy,” from the October 14th, 2024, issue of the magazine. Klam, a winner of the Robert Bingham/PEN Award, is the author of the collection “Sam the Cat and Other Stories” and the novel “Who Is Rich?,” which was published in 2017.

The story in the magazine’s October 7th, 2024, issue is “Stories About Us” by Lore Segal. Segal wasn’t able to read her story for the podcast. But, in 2010, on the New Yorker Fiction Podcast, Jennifer Egan read and discussed a different story by Lore Segal—“The Reverse Bug,” from 1989—and we wanted to share this bonus sampling of Segal’s work with you instead. 

Allegra Goodman reads her story “Ambrose,” from the September 30, 2024, issue of the magazine. Goodman has published two story collections and seven novels, including “Kaaterskill Falls,” which was a National Book Award Finalist; “The Chalk Artist”; and “Sam,” which came out last year.
