So, we actually made it to our 100th episode! To celebrate, this week Tom and Chad took questions from all our listeners, leading to discussions about how many books we each read (and how many are in translation), what one thing all translators should know, how censorship plays into our publishing decision, and much more. Of course, it ends with raves and rants--including a rant about rants--and is filled with other interesting side tangents. Here's a list of all the books we talked about on this episode (although maybe not in this order): Apocalypse Baby by Virginie DespentesMexico: The Great Theft by Carmen BoullosaCase Histories by Kate AtkinsonLife After Life by Kate AtkinsonDelirium by Laura RestrepoOryx & Crake by Margaret AtwoodThe End of Days by Jenny ErpenbeckThe Last Lover by Can XueFaces in the Crowd by Valeria LuiselliThe Story of My Teeth by Valeria LuiselliBy Night in Chile by Roberto BolañoThat Smell by Sonallah IbrahimUlysses by James JoyceFinnegans Wake by James Joyce If you have any comments or questions, feel free to email us at [email protected] you can Tweet at Tom @RightHandOfMeh":https://twitter.com/RightHandOfMeh and Chad @chadwpost.
