Like the local food movement, Read Local is a program that seeks to get readers to enjoy books grown right in their own back yard. It is a book club and event series, highlighting books published by publishing houses based right here in Rochester. The idea is to read the book, meet the author, and support local businesses along the way.
We meet author Josefine Klougart, and we discuss a range of issues, including translations and foreign books, the health of publishing, and more. Our guests:
- Josefine Klougart, author of One of Us is Sleeping
- Kyle Semmel, executive director of Writers & Books
- Chad Post, publisher, Open Letter Books
