After having taught "A Summer's Reading" for more years than
I care to think about, I finally decided to google the story
and see what it came up with.
Did you know that the story first appeared in the "New
Yorker" in 1957? Anyway the 'New Yorker" site has an online
audio interview with an author who has chosen the story out
of its archives and talks about it. He reads out the story
(in quite a boring tone so it would not be worth downloading
and playing to a class, in my opinion.) He discusses the
story with the interviewer and some interesting points are
made. If you are interested the interview can be found here:
