Satire is a powerful force for political and cultural change. But is it even possible in a world that outstrips our imagination on a daily—or even hourly—basis? Today’s guests are two young novelists who are redefining satire in the 21st century. Leigh Stein is the author of Self Care, which is set at a women’s wellness startup where things go very wrong. Her next novel, If You’re Seeing This, It’s Meant for You, takes place at a social media hype […]
