In response to a listener email, Tom expands on his comments from last podcast about the American Booksellers Association. Chad shares some data about genre works in translation and wonders about adding this to the Translation Database. He also has some curious info about Icelandic books in translation and then promotes one of his favorite books of 2018. As can be expected, things take a turn when they start talking about the New Academy's Prize in Literature (aka the Alternative Nobel).
This week's music is "The Better Me" by The Joy Formidable.
