In this episode of The Write Reasons podcast, Susan Orlean talks about how her first memoir, Joyride (Avid Reader Press, 2025), originated from her reflections of her 1992 Esquire essay, “The American Male at Age Ten,” in a conversation with Simon & Schuster CEO Jonathan Karp. Orlean’s memoir is featured in Page One in the November/December issue of Poets & Writers Magazine.
