ReReading Wolfe

Dispatch from Capricon


Listen Later

Warning: almost no Wolfe content at all. James and Craig just sit around in the same room (for the first time ever) and talk about going to a relatively uneventful con. Never say we don't provide novel, exciting content. But we do throw around some ideas for a Wolfe-con near the end.

And we mention books we bought and/or learned about:

  • Damon Knight, Three Novels
  • Humphrey Carter, Tolkien: A Biography
  • Tolkien, Unfinished Tales
  • Greg Ketter (ed.), Shelf Life: Fantastic Stories Celebrating Bookstores [includes Wolfe's "From the Cradle"]
  • Tom Disch, Neighboring Lives and The Priest
  • C.S.E. Cooney, Desdemona and the Deep
  • Swanwick, Cigar-Box Faust and Other Miniatures
  • Theodora Goss, Snow White Learns Witchcraft
  • Christopher John Farley, Kingston by Starlight
  • Leigh Brackett, The Long Tomorrow
  • K.B. Wagers, Out Past the Stars
  • William Horwood, Duncan Woods
  • Nicole Korner-Stace, Firebreak
  • Barry Hughart, Bridge of Birds
  • and a new (to us) podcast: The Skiffy and Fanty Show
