Fiction Podcast: Colm Tóibín Reads Sylvia Townsend Warner (New Yorker)
Colm Toibin, author of "Brooklyn" and "The Empty Family" first encountered
"The Children's Grandmother," by Sylvia Townsend Warner, in an old collection
of _New Yorker _short stories that he bought at a used-book store in Dublin
over thirty years ago. Townsend Warner wrote around a hundred and fifty
stories for _The New Yorker_ between the nineteen-thirties and the nineteen-
seventies. "The Children's Grandmother" was published in the magazine in 1950.
Toibin says that this story jumped out at him from the collection and has
remained in his mind as "one of those miracle stories."
On its face, the story line of "The Children's Grandmother" is simple: the
narrator's dead husband was the youngest of seven siblings and the only one to
survive into adulthood. The story deals with the years after his death, when
the narrator and her children go to live with his mother, an inscrutable and
intimidating woman who does not hide her disapproval of her son's "sturdy
middle class" widow.
