SELECTED SHORTS host Meg Wolitzer presents two stories about love, or the next best thing.  In Pam Houston’s “How to Talk to a Hunter” a smart woman can’t get enough of what her man can’t offer.  The reader is Mia Dillon.  And a widowed mother and a lonely man make an odd couple in Lisa Ko’s “Pat + Sam,” performed by Jennifer Ikeda.
