  This is the New Yorker Fiction Podcast from the New Yorker magazine.

• 00:09

  I'm Deborah Treisman, Fiction Editor at the New Yorker.

• 00:13

  Each month we invite a writer to choose a story from the magazine's archives to read and discuss.

• 00:18

  This month we're going to hear Two Men Arrive in a Village by Zadie Smith,

• 00:22

  which appeared in the New Yorker in June of 2016.

• 00:26

  How proud we are in retrospect of our women who stood in formation,

• 00:31

  arms linked, the one to the next,

• 00:34

  in a ring around our girls as the tall, dim man became agitated and spat on the floor.

• 00:42

  The story was chosen by Edwidge Danticat,

• 00:45

  whose works of fiction include the story collections Everything Inside and The Dewbreaker,

• 00:50

  both of which won the Story Prize.

• 00:53

  Hi, Edwidge.

  Hi, Debra.

• 00:55

  It's really, really nice to have you back on the podcast.

• 00:58

  It's nice to be back.

• 00:59

  It's been a while.

• 01:00

  It's been a while,

• 01:01

  and I will never forget that you were the second guest ever on the podcast back in 2007.

• 01:06

  And people weren't even doing that many podcasts back then.

• 01:10

  Yeah.
