This month, we've a special Fifth Thursday Bookclub - our first ever Podclub!
We'll be listening to the New Yorker Fiction podcast for January 2025. It's a short story about an hour long, chosen and read by another writer. This month, Bryan Washington joins Deborah Treisman to read “A Small Flame,” by Yiyun Li, which was published in The New Yorker in 2017. Washington, a winner of the New York Public Library’s Young Lions Fiction Award, is the author of the story collection “Lot” and the novels “Memorial,” “Family Meal,” and “Palaver,” which was a finalist for the National Book Award in 2025.

You can also find it on other platforms by searching for New Yorker Fiction.

Feel free to listen to other episodes and bring your thoughts, if you want to take things further - but our discussion is going to be based around A Small Flame (January's episode).
We don't normally ask for subs for socials, so just turn up.
