Literary LA: Our Meteoric Quarantine with Harry Dodge - a podcast by Los Angeles Review of Books

What better way to break out of the stay-in-place doldrums, and reflect on this transformational moment, than to consider the role of the random in the creation of the new with one of our most brilliant shape-shifters, artist Harry Dodge. Kate, Medaya, and Eric speak with Harry from four different locations across Southern California on the occasion of the publication of his first, already-heralded, book, My Meteorite. Harry talks about what motivated him to write, how he arrived at a form that interweaves memoir-like accounts with extended philosophical reflections - and, of course, the content of those reflections. The imagination of Harry Dodge is an exciting place; and your random encounter with this podcast just might inspire new approaches to our new reality.
Also, Garth Greenwell, author of Cleanness, calls in to recommend The Gift by Barbara Browning.This is the eighth episode in our series on LA and Southern California writers, artists and filmmakers.
