The trailer for Cosmic Library's season 4—on JOURNEY TO THE WEST—is here.
This season, that classic and extremely funny Chinese novel prompts conversations about cinema, about comedy, about Buddhism, about transcendence.
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!
At this point The Cosmic Library's social media existence has really shifted to the other microblogging place.

Cosmic Librarians, you've heard a reflection on Diane Oliver in our U.S. short story season; now you can read @GabrielJBump on the subject of Oliver and her stories:

"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:

Ok there’s a lot going on in this episode, including a meditation on literary podcasting, and my discovery that characters in @my19thcentury’s REBOOT are named after actual lit podcasters @higley_alex and @clnichols6.

And in the podcatchers!
Get ready for a very American conclusion to our season on American fiction. How American? At one point the novelist Justin Taylor exclaims, "I'm back, baby! I'm rebooted!"
Nobody said such things in the Finnegans Wake season. (But it's not so far from a summary of the Wake.)
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.

New essential reading for Cosmic Librarians, from @egabbert: publishersweekly.com/9780374…
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!
