Description
Literary historian David Damrosch joins Zibby to discuss his latest book, Around the World in 80 Books, which grew out of a blog he started during the pandemic. The two talk about the thought that went into selecting the eighty books from around the world, David's thoughts on reading translated works, and how he grew more comfortable sharing parts of his personal story, which made the book "a kind of a memoir of a life of reading." David shares some of these personal anecdotes with Zibby, including his connection to Madeleine L'Engle.Purchase on Amazon or Bookshop.Amazon: https://amzn.to/37bmTg5Bookshop: https://bit.ly/3vTwbIbSubscribe to Zibby's weekly newsletter here.
