@Joshua Marre Count me in on this dogpile. Do you guys each have a favorite Saunders work? I'd have to go with "Lincoln in the Bardo", which is one of the few novels that gave me a sore throat from choking back so many tears.
What is with these "NEW"? White on White text captions. Am i the only one that thinks that white on white is nearly impossible to read? I see them here and on MANY. MANY videos - is this the result of some new software product? Please change the color - white letters on a dark background, or something with a higher degree of contrast.
The strange thing is: for a very imagnitive he tells the EXACT same stories and jokes at every speaking appearance, year after year. Junot Diaz doesn't do that. Neither does Eugenedes. Makes you wonder.....
I have to give it to the audience members for asking such great questions.
very insightful, candid and fun listen. and good questions
Fantastic talk. He is a man who gives so much enjoyment, and now with this video, so much information about his processes.
good god
I... I love this man

I loved his "Civilwarland in Bad Decline" especially that last story about the mutant slave.
Yes! me too. It's called "Bounty".
Ironically that was the only story in that collection i didn't care for too much. The rest I loved.
next level - love this guy
read all his books! funny and strange in the very best way.
One of the best writer talks I've heard)
We went to see him speak at the library in LA about 2 weeks ago but there were no seats left. Bummer.
