It's a good thing they didn't get #DennisLehane and @TheGillianFlynn in the same place. Who knows what kind of mayhem would have broken out?

Settle in folks. This is a long one. 😂

How did we not know about this? JESUS GOD!

What are all these authors doing on late night TV? We didn't know about this... #CelesteNg

John Wheelwright would be enraged if he saw #JohnIrving with a newspaper! But also, we're obsessed with everything about this house.

[Mid Lit Podcast @midlitpod]

What say you, #booklovers ? Is Franzen a Walter or a Richard? (Also, does Franzen look like erstwhile @StephenKing)?

It's hard to imagine a future in which we find a way to cover Azar Nafisi on our podcast. But that shouldn't keep you from enjoying how delightful she is.

Who knows dysfunctional families better than #Franzen? (Maybe Irving... I mean, The Berry clan were a hot mess.) 📚Thanks to @CTForum for a great event.

Part 2 of Franzenpalooza is less of a roundtable and more of a intimate discussion about Franzen's place in the literary world with @wastemailing

https://t.co/A1bZsPVBzD

[Mid Lit Podcast @midlitpod]

And so it begins... Franzenpalooza is upon us. Dig into Part 1 to find out how mad @colinmcenroe is that he and his neti pot didn't make it into the book. @Irenepapoulis & @bill_yousman also weigh in on "Crossroads." Part 2 out tomorrow.

We're popping in with a mini-episode to bid a fond farewell to Joan Didion, a magical thinker who depressed the hell out of us and lived an amazing life.

Hey there, you princes of Maine, you kings of New England. We're going back to our #johnirving roots to yell about #reproductiverights, our grandmothers, and the maligned Melanie.
