About this episode
Things start to come clear in this penultimate episode of this season of the Two Month Review. We get a new story about Joséf's birth, along with some absolutely incredible writing by Sjón. Lots of parallels and mirroring in this section, and the discussion helps set up next week's conclusion.
The next episode will focus on the first eight chapters of this third volume (pages 345-406). The complete schedule can be found here.
Season 9 of the Two Month Review will kick off at the end of July and will feature Monsterhuman by Kjersti Skomsvold. Get your copy now!
And Season 10 will be the first English-language title to be included: Ducks, Newburyport by Lucy Ellmann
Follow Open Letter, Chad Post, and Brian Wood for more thoughts on Sjón and literature in general, and for information about upcoming guests.
