Across the Pond
Across the Pond is a podcast about the most discussed and anticipated books on both sides of the Atlantic. Texas indie bookstore owner Lori Feathers and UK publisher Sam Jordison bring their unique perspectives on the book business, local literary trends, and author news. In each episode Lori and Sam will also provide a critical take on an important book, discussing how it has been anticipated and received on either side of the pond. Exciting US and UK authors occasionally join Lori and Sam to talk about their work.

115. Jonathan Gibbs, "Randall"
Author Jonathan Gibbs joins us to talk about his novel Randall, published in the UK by Sam's Galley Beggar Press eleven years ago but just now making it to the US thanks to new independent publisher, Tivoli Books. The fictional Randall is a visual artist in 1990s London during the reign of the provocative Young British Artists (YBAs).
