Episode 6 – Whisper of the Heart with Moctezuma Seth Gonzalez

This week I’ll trade you film talk for some book talk. Whisper of the Heart (Yoshifumi Kondo, 1996) puts us in a cozy mood to reminisce and share origin stories. Antiquarian bookseller, and owner of Livra Books, Moctezuma Seth Gonzalez, talks about his quest to learn more about the people and objects around him, and the stories they carry. It is a story of mysterious jars of black peaches, competing with Turkish booksellers, and reading Descartes at 14. Works Discussed: Whisper of the Heart (Yoshifumi Kondo, 1996)
