Chad and Tom are joined by Mark Haber<\/a> from Brazos Bookstore<\/a> and author of the forthcoming\u00a0Reinhardt’s Garden<\/em><\/a> (October 1, Coffee House Press). They talk a bit about Translation Bread Loaf (two thumbs up) and about a special poster for anyone who buys the First 100 from Open Letter, before trying their best to breakdown a nonsensical metaphor that Chad heard at this weekend’s The Ladder Literary Conference. They also talk about\u00a0Reinhardt’s Garden<\/em>, Mark’s influences, the voice of the main character, and Chad’s “Five Tools for Authors<\/a>” post. (Also: See the “Five Tools for Translators<\/a>.”) Then, they recommend a slew of books to check out:<\/p>\n
