Download audio (MP3)

In "The Tyranny of E-mail," author John Freeman looks at the 4,000 year sweep of the written word from early cuneiform carvings to the e-mail in your humble inbox. He argues that e-mail inhibits our ability to conduct our lives mindfully. As part of our coverage of the 40th anniversary of the Internet, we deconstruct our inboxes.

Host: Michael Krasny

Guests:

  • John Freeman, author, American editor of the literary magazine Granta, book critic and former president of the National Book Critic's Circle
