Welcome to the Books of Some Substance (B.O.S.S.) Podcast.

Read the books, take a listen.

Apr 15, 2016
4 - Death and Dying with Saul Bellow

It’s an exceptionally smart man who isn’t marked forever by the theories he reads in passing from books, and we aren't all that smart. 

On this shortened episode, we discuss the Bellow short stories "Leaving the Yellow House" and "A Silver Dish." There's rugged individualism. There's death and dying. There's the spin from that great wheel of fortune we all eventually spin and the bright, shiny electric one Nick may spin on broadcast television.

As always, read the stories and give us a listen.
