Three Percent Podcast #37: No Offense

Tom and I were on fire during this week’s podcast, talking about the PEN World Voices Festival and some interesting questions we were asked in an interview for the Picador Book Room Tumblr. While talking about PEN WV, what is learned about a location from reading a book set there, what’s lost and/or gained in translation, we (meaning mostly me) tear into a number of things. Which is why this week’s music is “All Apologies” by Nirvana.

Enjoy the rants and the serious observations about international literature—this podcast is a good mix of both. And feel free to send your hate mail or other comments to me at chad.post [@] rochester [dot] edu. We’d love to read these on the air, and we’re always open to suggestions for new podcast topics.

Also, I didn’t get to mention this in the podcast, but I’d love to update The Three Percent Problem at some point in hopes that someone would publish it in print form. Not sure when I’ll have time for that—I’d make time if some publisher were interested though—but hopefully I’ll be able to participate in the U of R’s Celebration of the Book at some point again in the future . . .
