#15 The Threepenny Review’s Wendy Lesser on Picking Pleasure Over Ambition [Replay] - a podcast by Rachel Thompson

“I think there is too much pushing forward in a way that is not motivated by pleasure, that is motivated by shaped ambition or greed or some sense that people have as to what they should want. Zooming over everything else. And to me that is not literature. That is careerism.” —Wendy Lesser, founder of The Threepenny Review.
