Episode notes

This book was recommended to us by one of our illustrious patrion supporters. You will talk about the book its we're can talk a little bit more about mister calvino, please. I feel a little unequipped to discuss what it's doing in the context of literature writ large. We've all had that feeling one time or another.

Sometimes a book is so meta it sort of breaks your brain! How to talk about a book that is all beginnings and no ends? How to discuss a book that enlists You, the Reader, in its chicanery? We try to get on the wavelength with Calvino's text. You be the judge of if we get there.

Our theme music was composed by Nick Lerangis.
