“The face of Elrond was ageless, neither old nor young, though in it was written the memory of many things, both glad and sorrowful.”

The Summer Season of the Infinite Library starts this Tuesday with an episode on the first two parts of Roberto Bolaño’s “2666”!
Join Ben and John for some unconventional beach reads!
Hi Bookheads, John here. Due to an unexpected personal loss, this week’s episode on Melville’s “The Confidence Man” is going to be late. Ben and I are figuring out the schedule for this ep and the rest of this season, and we’ll share more as soon as we’re able. Semper Books!
We’re mixing things up a bit this week with some non-fiction! We talk Ian Watt’s “Rise of the Novel”, the concept of the “reading public”, and the value of delving into academic literature on today’s episode of The Infinite Library! podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/t...
The fellas from the Infinite Library Podcast operate on a different level from the rest of us. Can't recommend this podcast enough.

Merry Christmas, Bookheads. We’re closing out the year with an episode on “The Final Solution” by Michael Chabon.
Enjoy and see you next year!

*sicko voice* yes YES
Co-signed!
Enjoyable to see Chabon finally nail his Great American novel after the "shipwrecked" Fountain City. The whole thing is chock full of bravura paragraphs. Also this is perhaps our most riff filled episode to date lol.
We had a blast talking about “The Amazing Adeventures of Kavalier and Clay” with @cacomixpod.bsky.social
Enjoy what is our longest (and in my opinion, funniest) episode to date!
Part 2 will be out next week, Book Heads!

Let's go a step further and follow Alexander Manshel, Laura B. McGrath, and J. D. Porter in characterizing the audiobook as a work not just of audio performance but of intensive, multifaceted, and largely unremunerated literary criticism.
