2MR: Reunited! (Intro to Mercè Rodoreda)

Brian Wood is BACK. Complete with a poem he wrote in his time away from the Two Month Review . . . In the introduction to season three, Chad and Brian talk about Catalan literature (briefly), Mercè Rodoreda's career and comps, possible approaches to discussing Rodoreda's stories, and more. As noted elsewhere, this season will start with Mercè Rodoreda's Selected Stories followed by one of her novels, Death in Spring.   Both of these books are available through the Open Letter website, and if you use 2MONTH at checkout, you'll get 20% off.   Feel free to comment on this episode--or on the book in general--either on this post, or at the official GoodReads Group.   Follow Open Letter, Chad Post, and Brian Wood for more thoughts and information about upcoming guests.   And you can find all Two Month Review posts by clicking here.   The music for this season of Two Month Review is "Montseny" by Els Surfing Sirles.   And please rate us on Apple Podcasts (or wherever you get your podcasts) and/or leave a review!   This is a public episode.
