- The Bat Segundo Show may be no more. I can't even begin to talk about what this podcast has meant to me--especially as someone who lives outside the U.S. The loss is incalculable. Update, 18 July: There's still hope--lots of it.
- Open Book, a collaborative online "writers on writing" project by Slate and NYU, posts its maiden episode: an insightful interview with Junot Díaz. Although the interview feels a little rushed, I loved how openly in debt he is to his reading. While working on a draft, he thinks of the books he loves and if they would say, "This page can't hang out with us"--into the trash it goes. (via The Millions)
- Matthew Tiffany quotes from a recent interview with the inimitable Wendell Berry.
- Miriam Burstein discusses Jennifer Egan's The Keep, perfectly describing my own frustrations with it.
- Anne Fernald reads Woolf's letters and has her grandmother to thank.
- Tim of Baby Got Books questions potential misreadings of Rivka Galchen's Atmospheric Disturbances.
