The Yale Review’s Lunch Talk with Alexander Chee: The Writer’s Life

Alexander Chee, bestselling novelist, essayist, editor, and professor of English and creative writing at Dartmouth College, will discuss what it takes to build a writer’s life in all its dimensions today. What labor—both intellectual and practical—is required to write across genres? What do alternate forms of publishing (such as Substack) offer that can’t be found elsewhere? How does being a teacher and editor inform one’s writing life? In conversation with National Book Critics Circle board member and TYR contributing editor Adam Dalva.
