I had the absolute pleasure of speaking w/ @lorifeathers and @thomaskflynn on their podcast @LostInRedonda. We discussed the fabulously weird story collection WILD MILK (@DorothyProject) by Sabrina Orah Mark, touching on SNL, mermaids & feral fleshliness. https://t.co/kVoohQs2U9
Episode 12 is up! In which we finish YOUR FACE TOMORROW and wrap-up our everything-Marías project. We'll be back in a couple weeks with Season 2 and another big read and a lot of backlist discussion. As always, thanks for listening!

Once we've finished YFT we're taking a week off and will be back w/ more backlist and a new author project. If you want a hint for what's next: the next writer's first name is the last name of a character in a previously discussed Marías novel. Which kinda narrows it?
Ep. 10 is up as we begin to wrap up our Marías project w/ volume 1 of YOUR FACE TOMORROW: FEVER AND SPEAR. We dig into the Spanish Civil War, question whether Marías would like how we talk, and marvel at his mastery. So, the usual.

Next week we start to wrap our Marías focus w/ Volume 1 of YOUR FACE TOMORROW. So if you haven't started yet, now's a good time to dig in. @LoriFeathers and @thomaskflynn are looking forward to it!
Episode 9 is live and w/ it we journey into the South Pacific w/ Christian Kracht's IMPERIUM translated by Daniel Bowles from @PicadorUSA. It's a fun conversation about cocovorism, nudism, and failed utopias!

@BookvillExiles has supported our 33 1/3 authors and series throughout the years. It's our turn to lend a voice to help them. We encourage Exile in Bookville customers to shop its site while the store is closed during the holiday weekend. Support local businesses!
I’ve put a lot of work into making Michele Mari available in English. And not just in terms of translating, but also all the unpaid agent-like work which is so often a big part of what we translators do.
Today you can read one of his stories in The New Yorker. Utterly surreal. 💫
