About this episode
Bob Waxler and David Beckman met as freshmen at Brown University in the early 1960’s. They discovered they had a lot in common including a fascination with language, literature, and the life of art. They kept in touch over the years and began sharing emails with Bob on the east coast, David out west. It ultimately led to a touching anthology of correspondence in the book “You Say, I Say: Staying Alive with Literature, Language and Friendship.” It offers a deep dive into life and its meaning through letters, celebrating the power of the written word.
