The Leonard Lopate Show | Jul 9, 2013

David Rakoff died last August at the age of 47. But wrote a novel—in rhyming iambic pentameter—in his last years, called Love, Dishonor, Marry, Die, Cherish, Perish, to be published July 16. Ira Glass, executive producer and host of This American Life, which David Rakoff contributed to, and who recorded Rakoff's audiobook reading of Love, Dishonor, Marry, Die, Cherish, Perish, joins us to talk about his life and final work.
