WORDS ON A WIRE: Lorraine Lopez

Your browser doesn’t support HTML5 audio

  Writer and Vanderbilt University associate professor Lorraine Lopez joins us on this program to tell us about her novel "The Darling."  The protagonist, Caridad, is in love with "dead, white men"...specifically dead, white authors such as Chekhov, Flaubert, Nabokov, and Thomas Hardy.  Lopez explains why this novel grew out of the idea of cross-dressing:  male authors who inhabited female personas in their writing.
