I want to thank everyone for their feedback on Releases Episode 1, an experiment that I enjoyed. While Episode 2 is still called Releases (does anyone have a better name?), this episode should be familiar to those of you who have listened to Brian and I talk about NYRB Classics’ forthcoming slate. This week we did our semi-annual episode, talking about what NYRB Classics is releasing in the first half of 2015.<\/p>\n

In the podcast, I bring up a GoodReads page that I keep current that lists the forthcoming NYRB Classics books and links to discussion pages about each book. You can find that here<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Here are the books we talk about (remember, these publication dates can change):<\/p>\n
