Historical Drama from Lisa Gornick and Roxana Robinson.

On this month’s PAWcast, novelist Lisa Gornick ’77 discusses her new book, writing, and her former career as a psychotherapist in an interview with associate editor Carrie Compton. “As a therapist and then as a psychoanalyst, I was really trained to hear unconscious themes, to see the way that stories unfold, and to hear the way that emotion is concealed in language,” Gornick says. “And so, I felt very much as though I was using what I knew as a student of literature in the therapy room — and the reverse as well.” Her latest novel, The Peacock Feast (Sarah Crichton Books), was published in February.Author photo © Sigrid Estrada; for a transcript of this interview, visit https://paw.princeton.edu/podcast/pawcast-author-lisa-gornick-77-writing-life-and-her-background-psychotherapist

PAWcast: Author Lisa Gornick ’77 on the Writing Life (May 2019)

Jon interviews author Lisa Gornick about her newest novel, The Peacock Feast. Spanning the twentieth century and three continents, The Peacock Feast ricochets from Manhattan to San Francisco, from the decadent mansions  of the Tiffany family to the death row of a Texas prison, and from the  London consultation room of Anna Freud to a Mendocino commune. With  psychological acuity and aching eloquence, Lisa Gornick has written a  sweeping family drama, an exploration of the meaning of art and the art  of dying, and an illuminating portrait of how our decisions reverberate  across time and space. Lisa Gornick is the author of Louisa Meets Bear, Tinderbox, and A Private Sorcery. Her stories and essays have appeared widely, including in The New York Times, Prairie Schooner, Real Simple, Salon, Slate, and The Sun. She holds a BA from Princeton and a PhD in clinical psychology from Yale, and is on the faculty of the Columbia University Center for Psychoanalytic Training and Research. A long-time New Yorker, she lives in Manhattan with her family. The post The Stories of Their Lives – Ep 51 with Lisa Gornick appeared first on Read Learn Live Podcast.
