Vince (A Book No One Wants) and Chad talk about Ralph Cusack’s only novel, Cadenza, a semi-surreal trip on a train through time and space. They discuss the humor, the difficulty holding on to the prose, Anthony Cronin’s criticisms from Dead As Doornails, and then digress off into myriad topics . . .

Next month Vince and Chad will be discussing The Dregs of the Day by Máirtín Ó Cadhain, transalted from the Irish by Alan Titley.
