Great novels, poor performance
The selection of novels and stories is great yet the minor drawback is that the performers are not professionals. Listen to the PRI selected shorts to hear the professional actors in opposite to the readers picked by random by The New Yorker stuff to perform this podcast. When there is even low noise in your environment it is much more difficult to understand the reader of this podcast. This issue could be not important for natives or the people without any hearing impairment.

More reviews of The New Yorker: Fiction
One of my favourite podcasts. There should be more of them. Well worth the download if you like listening to literature podcasts. Keep up the great work!

Can't believe programming of this quality is free. Amazing fiction and illuminating discussion, so good you quickly get over the pretentious classroom voices used by many of the guests. This and the Out Loud podcast persuaded me to renew my lapsed New Yorker subscription!Read full review »

She laughs occasionally, and it's a relief when she does. Her generic voice is starkly contrasted to the artful readings.Read full review »
