Welcome to Listen Now, Read Later, the podcast that brings you to your next favorite book by reading you short stories. In this episode, listen now to "Portrait of Two Young Ladies in White and Green Robes (Unidentified Artist, circa Sixteenth Century)" by Jane Pek and "In the Cemetery Where Al Jolson Is Buried" by Amy Hempel (published 2020 and 1983) and hear why we think fans of these stories should read In Five Years by Rebecca Serle (published 2020) later.
Highlighted themes: female friendship, grief and what-if questions
