The Critic and Her Publics

Welcome to Season Three of The Critic and Her Publics: On Translation.

In 1999, twelve distinguished writers gathered at Casa Ecco, a villa on Lake Como, to discuss the art of translation. Twenty-five years later, their ideas are still apt and powerful. Last October, Merve Emre convened a group of translators and publishers at the same villa to return to those ideas and to examine a field at an inflection point.

In this series, you’ll hear from the translators Maureen Freely, Daisy Rockwell, Virginia Jewiss, Jeremy Tiang, and Tiffany Tsao, as well as publishers Adam Levy (Transit Books) and Jacques Testard (Fitzcarraldo Editions).



Hosted by Merve Emre • Edited by Michele Moses • Music by Dani Lencioni • Art by Leanne Shapton

This Como Conversazione season of The Critic and Her Publics is a co-production between the Hawthornden Foundation, New York Review of Books, and Lit Hub.

Agatha Christie Radio Plays

Agatha Christie is one of the most popular and prolific crime writers of all time, and her work has been adapted for radio and television countless times. These are just a few examples of the many radio adaptations of Agatha Christie's work. Her stories are perfectly suited for radio, with their complex plots, suspenseful twists and turns, and memorable characters. Christie's radio plays have been enjoyed by audiences for generations, and they continue to be popular today. They are a great way to experience her classic mysteries in a new and exciting way. Here are some of the reasons why Agatha Christie's radio plays are so popular:
  • Her stories are well-crafted and suspenseful. Christie was a master storyteller, and her radio plays are full of twists and turns that keep the listener guessing until the very end.
  • Her characters are complex and believable. Christie's characters are more than just archetypes; they are flawed and relatable individuals.
  • Her radio plays are well-acted and produced. Many of the best radio actors of their time have appeared in Christie's radio plays, and the productions are always high-quality.
If you are a fan of Agatha Christie, or if you simply enjoy a good mystery, I highly recommend checking out some of her radio plays. You won't be disappointed.
