Kurt Andersen and novelist Jhumpa Lahiri explore how letters feed our creativity. A novel made up of letters sparks a suicide wave in 18th century Germany. We get a peek at the inner workings of a Hollywood mogul in the outrageous memos dictated by David O. Selznick, who produced Gone with the Wind. And Kurt calls some of the listeners who sent amazing mail art to Studio 360. Plus: Steve Earle tells us about his new album, The Revolution Starts Now.
