LIVE PODCAST! Well, sort of. Tom was in Rochester, so he and Chad recorded a spontaneous podcast while being in the same room as one another. (And with eight-month-old Aleks, who makes an appearance.) They talk about bookstores Tom visited on this trip, the National Book Awards, and J Franz's now infamous "rules for writers." (Poor, besieged J Franz! And poor, besieged LitHub! We feel bad for both of you.) They also recommend (and don't recommend) a few books, including Revenge of the Translator by Bruce Matthieussent, and translated from the French by Emma Ramadan. This week's music is "Run the Numbers" by Everything Everything. As always, feel free to send any and all comments or questions to: [email protected].
