This summer, “Amateur Thursdays,” which Publishing Perspectives featured this time last year, will be posting the first of three new episodes of their web show about books. In each episode, established artists and authors, as well as emerging ones, discuss books — fiction, non-fiction, high-brow fare and low-brow stuff — in a given theme.
“Amateur Thursdays” was launched last fall at The Frankfurt Book Fair by Giovanna Calvino, Fabrice Rozie, and Alison Snyder as a way to use books as part of a larger cultural conversation.
