In this episode, we discuss "Woman at Exhibition" by E. Lily Yu. What can we learn from this brief story? How can real-life, historical people be incorporated into speculative fiction? How can a narrative theme connect different aspects of a story for the reader? How can we make a story linger in the reader's mind in a good way?

Why Is This Good? is a podcast from the Naples Writers' Workshop in which we read successful stories and ask "Why is this good?"

Through our discussion, we hope to discover useful things to say about how fiction works, the craft of writing, and literary art. We try to find lessons for our own writing by closely examining well-written stories, and we hope to share some of those lessons with our audience.

Why is This Good? is produced in Naples, Florida by the Naples Writers' Workshop.
