This is the New Yorker fiction podcast from the New Yorker magazine.
I'm Deborah Treisman, fiction editor at the New Yorker.
Each month we invite a writer to choose a story from the magazine's archives to read and discuss.
This month we're going to hear haunting Olivia by Karen Russell, which appeared in the New Yorker in June of 2005.
The diabolical goggles were designed for little girls.
They are pink with a floral snorkel attached to the side.
They have scratch proof lenses and an adjustable band wallow says that we are going to use them to find our dead sister, Olivia.
The story was chosen by Louise Erdrich, who has published more than a dozen books of fiction, including the novels the Roundhouse Rose and the Night Watchman, which was awarded the Pulitzer Prize in 2021.
A new novel, the Mighty Red, is coming out in October.
Hi, Louise.
Hello.
How are you?
