This week, Ph.D. candidate Anastasia Nikolis joins Chad and Lytton to talk about the real meat of T\u00f3mas J\u00f3nsson, Bestseller<\/i>—chamber pot usage! They also discuss the way our grumpy narrator’s mind works, the way he finds beauty in ambiguity, how Lytton translated a very specific word game, and a couple cues to help keep track of “when” particular sections are taking place. A lively and learned episode—just like the novel itself.<\/p>\n
