In this month’s episode, Rachel and Daniel make the most of a relatively-light SFT month, discussing the collections, stories, and reviews that came out in October. They also look ahead to the exciting wonderfulness that is November. The highly-acclaimed Icelandic novel, CoDex 1962, keeps coming up (probably because it’s as great as everyone says it is) and we now have new stories by Yoss and Melanie Fazi to read thanks to World Literature Today. And while Rachel and Daniel wish they could have more time to read all the things, Daniel still needs to invent that time machine Rachel keeps asking for… Remember: with new stories and books coming to our attention each week, make sure to check the SFT website for updates. Enjoy, and keep reading! A bientôt!
