We did it! After two months, eleven episodes, and a half dozen different guests, Brian and Chad finished their discussion of Rodrigo Fres\u00e1n’s The Invented Part<\/em>! Joining them this week to wrap things up is Valerie Miles, translator, publisher, co-founder of Granta en Espa\u00f1ol<\/em>, and editor of A Thousand Forests in One Acorn.<\/em><\/a> She’s also friends with Rodrigo and offers amazing insight into this wild, stuffed chapter in which we return to the beginning (“How to end. Or better: How to end?”) while The Writer flies through the skies, revisiting all the rants he made at a recent conference, and the spectacular attack from his archnemesis IKEA<\/span>. There’s a lot more to this section though—especially how it relates to the structure of the overall book. <\/p>\n
