An occasional series in which writers speak for themselves.

In this week’s podcast, courtesy of Biographers International Organization, Sonja Williams and Stephen Budiansky discuss Budiansky’s award-winning Journey to the Edge of Reason: The Life of Kurt Gödel. Publishers Weekly says that “Gödel comes through as a brilliant though tragic figure in Budiansky’s richly descriptive prose. This captivating portrait of a great if neurotic mind hits the mark.” Listen to the podcast here.
