Classic Stories, Now With Famous People

The literary mashup sensation has so far paired Jane Austen with zombies and Abraham Lincoln with vampires. Now, the literary great who gave us The Cherry Orchard and The Seagull is rubbing elbows with Lindsay Lohan, Eminem and others in New Yorker editor and music writer Ben Greenman's new collection, Celebrity Chekhov. Greenman joins us in The Greene Space to talk about the book -- and to test our live audience's music knowledge with a celebrity quiz.
