Doris Betts talks about the influences on her writing, notably the Old Testament stories in Hurlbut’s Bible:
“Real stories were about King Saul and they were about the burning bush, which nobody understood, and me included. But they were on a large scale and they involved people either doing good or doing evil or doing both. When you’re able to look at things on a large scale, you elevate who human beings really are.”
This 7-minute audio essay is part of Bookpod, a weekly podcast about writers of lasting value.
