Todd Pruzan on All Things Considered, ~5:50 PM EST

Filed under: Looked Into

Update: Listen to it now. There's also an excerpt here—the useful and engaging introduction—which Pruzan expanded into that great New Yorker piece that wasn't online. Ah, I see, a vast left-wing conspiracy! Not to mention a great picture of ol' Favell, poor old soul. (A bit more about her here.)

Why would you miss that? You wouldn't. If you're lucky, the shade of Mrs. Favell Lee Mortimer will join them. Either she'll be touched to be rediscovered or she'll be very, very indignant and hurl ethnocentric epithets (read aloud from the book). Tune in at 5:50 (or your local time) and wait for the signal. Then break out the nasty ethnic food of your choice.
