Robert Gottlieb's New Collection of Essays

Midday on WNYC | Jul 25, 2018

Robert Gottlieb discusses his book Near-Death Experiences . . . and Others. This new collection features over twenty pieces he’s written mostly for The New York Review of Books. The writings are as varied as they are provocative, from a probe into the world of post-death experiences to a sharp look at the biopics of transcendent figures such as Shakespeare, Molière and Austen.

This segment is guest hosted by DW Gibson.
