  This is the New Yorker fiction podcast from The New Yorker magazine.

• 00:10

  I'm Deborah Treisman, fiction editor at The New Yorker.

• 00:14

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

• 00:19

  This month we're going to hear Two Pilgrims by Peter Taylor,

• 00:22

  which appeared in The New Yorker in September of 1963.

• 00:27

  Then I heard Mr.

• 00:28

  Louder and my uncle open the back doors of the car.

• 00:31

  While the car was still moving, they leaped out onto the ground.

• 00:34

  They both were big men,

• 00:36

  more than six feet tall and with sizable stomachs that began just below the breastbone.

• 00:40

  But they sprinted off in the direction of the house like two boys.

• 00:45

  The story was chosen by Danielle Moenedin,

• 00:48

  who is the author of the story collection In Other Rooms, Other Wonders,

• 00:52

  a winner of the Commonwealth Writers' Prize,

• 00:54

  and the novel This Is Where the Serpent Lives, which came out earlier this year.

• 00:58

  Hi, Danielle.

• 00:59

  Hello, how are you?

• 01:00

  I'm good.

• 01:02

  So you mentioned to me when we were discussing this podcast that your mother knew Peter Taylor and interviewed him for the Paris Review.

• 01:10

  Can you tell me a bit about that connection?
