Acclaimed author George Saunders talks about what we can learn about writing, reading and life from nineteenth century short stories by Russian writers like Anton Chekhov and Leo Tolstoy. It's based on a class that he's been teaching at Syracuse University, which he has now turned into a book called "A Swim in a Pond in the Rain."
