We have a trailer @lithub—and an interview with me—for the new Cosmic Library season on The Brothers Karamazov:

The new season starts April 16! It opens with a radio-play adaptation of Dostoyevsky's novel!

"When people say they use my podcast to fall asleep, it feels slightly insulting," says @NYerFiction's Deborah Treisman on the @_CosmicLibrary_. But fiction and podcasts work in dreamy ways; hear about it all in the finale of this season on short stories:

This week: @NYerFiction's Deborah Treisman, @tayari, @my19thcentury, Becca Rothfeld, and Andrew Kahn. Hear about The NYer's glittering fiction archive—a "very, very diverse and interesting and jumbled-up catalog," in Kahn's words.
@lithub and everywhere!

This week’s show follows conversations on weird fiction and more—there’s @my19thcentury on Poe, Andrew Kahn on the brevity of some weird fiction, and a journey into cosmic strangeness.

There's a transporting reading of Nathaniel Hawthorne's "Wakefield" by the actor Max Gordon Moore in the latest episode—and you'll hear @my19thcentury introduce Hawthorne. Find it at @lithub or in any podcatcher:

"If I know you, and I have not given you a copy of this book, it means I don't like you."
High praise from Tayari Jones as she discusses NEIGHBORS AND OTHER STORIES on @_CosmicLibrary_'s American short stories episode.
Give it a listen!

The Monkey King is here forever, and on our new show, @KaiserKuo expresses some chagrin about the endless recurrence of Sun Wukong's story.

Our new season is at last in place!

Ok @cuttingforstone asked what Finnegans Wake is about in his "By the Book"—retracted the request, but still! So here's Joshua Cohen, @olwenfouere, Joseph Nugent, @abeggvariations, and more in our miniseries on the Wake:

"Yasmine Seale’s new translation of The Thousand and One Nights has a texture—tight, smooth, skillfully patterned—that make previous versions seem either garish or slightly dull by comparison."
Hear her read from that translation in Cosmic Library S2:

Fiction's "like a universe in a laboratory," Jonathan Lethem tells @_AdamColman_ in the new episode of The Writers Institute.
They review sound from Lethem's book events and open new doors to the multiverse, where podcasts are found:
