This week's podcast is the first one Tom and I have recorded in almost a month. So after a bit of catching up, we talked about David Bellos's new translation of Simenon's Pietr the Latvian, the difficulties of translating "I love you" and all the swears into Japanese, and the list of "The 20 Best Books in Translation You've Never Read." As necessary, we also talked about the baseball playoffs and a cute flowchart.
Three Percent Podcast
The Three Percent Podcast is a weekly(ish) conversation about new books, the publishing scene, international literature in translation, and many other random rants and raves. Chad W. Post of Open Letter Books and Tom Roberge of New Directions and Albertine Bookstore keep things irreverent, informed, and funny in a podcast that'll keep you up to date on the international literary and publishing worlds. Maybe. (Presented by Three Percent @ the University of Rochester.)
