RTWCS Video: Ledig House Readings

OK, as I found out yesterday, this is the only other recording we have for this season’s RTWCS. Unfortunately—really effing unfortunately—we had some technical difficulties with the Barbara Epler & Susan Bernofsky Walser event (which was one of the best events EVER) and didn’t capture either the video or audio from the event . . .

Anyway, what you’ll find below is the first HD-quality video recording of a RTWCS event. It’s of the Ledig House reading which took place last Tuesday and featured four writers: Tom Burke (US), who used to work at Words Without Borders, and whose piece is really interesting; Perihan Mağden (Turkey), who tells an incredible, gripping story before her reading; Nir Baram (Israel), who was quite a trip, and who much prefers The Corrections to Freedom; and Susana García Iglesias (Mexico), the only visitor who got to experience the nightlife of Rochester . . .
