Description
We launch our new "Audio Essay Edition" with Robert Fay's meditation on the writer-diplomat tradition. The list is illustrious, and includes Stendhal, Chaucer, Octavio Paz, Washington Irving and Pablo Neruda--and almost included Marcel Proust. Find out why this tradition has been overlooked and what similarities run through both crafts. You can also read the essay here: http://robertfay.com/2020/09/in-search-of-the-writer-diplomat-tradition/
