Vivian Gornick | The Odd Woman and the City

Recorded Jun 2, 2015
Praised for synthesizing ambitious political ideology with intimately acute interior life, critic, journalist, and essayist Vivian Gornick is the author of eleven books, including a biography of Emma Goldman and the essay collection The Men in My Life. From 1969 to 1997 her columns in The Village Voice heralded the politics of the feminist movement, and she has since contributed articles to the New York Times, The Nation, and The Atlantic Monthly, among other periodicals. She currently teaches writing at The New School. A bookend to the landmark 1987 memoir Fierce Attachments, The Odd Woman and the City is a narrative collage of Gornick’s meditations on friendship, urbanism, and literature.
