Meg Wolitzer presents two stories about neighbors and the unexpected relationships that can develop between people who live adjacent to one another. In Tess Gallagher’s “Mr. Woodriff’s Neckties,” a famous novelist lets his neighbor in on a secret. The reader is Dion Graham. In “Hoodie in Xanadu,” by Ann Beattie, a woman discovers that her shy neighbor possesses creative genius. The story is performed by Kirsten Vangsness.
