New Yorker fiction podcasts are short jaunts to the insides of another's brain.  This one is especially good.  Matthew Klam reads "The Point" by Charles D'Ambrosio.  Involving a precocious child, absent parents, a glamorous summer and twisted backstories in an otherwise picture-perfect seaside resort town.  Exactly my thoughts as well.
