Two Short Stories

I listened to both of these stories at some point last year, but had a feeling that I hadn't concentrated on them as much as I might. E L Doctorow read the O'Hara story and Mary Gaitskill the Nabokov. The first came back to me as I listened, but Symbols required a third listening to feel what gave it resonance.

New Yorker Fiction - John O'Hara's Graven Image and Nabokov's Symbols and Signs
