@furiousleeper.bsky.social reads from Colombian writer Ricardo Silva Romero's RIO MUERTO (@worldedbooks.bsky.social): a wrenching tale of murder and survival; "a window into a violent world and a tale about a family suffering at the hands of paramilitarism and bad neighbours."
Lots of buzz at the moment about Emily Wilson and her performance-readings from her translations of Homer's #Odyssey. You can watch those readings (and so many more!) on our channel: check us out! www.youtube.com/watch?v=h1at...
