In Sorry for Your Trouble, a collection of short stories, Pulitzer Prize winner Richard Ford offers a moving meditation on memory, love, and loss. From a 16-year-old fatherless boy in “Displaced” to the fiftysomething widower suddenly navigating life alone and untethered in “The Run of Yourself,” Ford’s protagonists are all mourning, both the people who are no longer there and the lives they no longer have – or perhaps never did. Joining him is iconic Irish novelist John Banville discussing his latest work, Snow, a dark thriller that kicks off with the murder – and castration – of a Catholic priest in a country manor.
