Author Meets the Critics

Miracle of the Bells

English · Radio, Literary Criticism

Author Meets the Critics brings writers face to face with reviewers for a discussion of books and ideas. The program’s appeal lies in hearing an author explain a work while critics question, assess, and debate it.

This recording is identified with The Miracle of the Bells, a novel by Russell Janney. The conversation offers a chance to hear the book considered in the context of its themes and reception, with the exchange between creator and critics at the center.

The tone is thoughtful and conversational, shaped by differing perspectives rather than dramatic action. It suits listeners interested in literary discussion and in the lively give-and-take of a radio program devoted to books.
