Publisher of Open Letter Books  Interview starts at 15:15 and ends at 43:30 Amazon[Crossing] is filling in some of these gaps, because we haven’t for a long time seen the normal mystery book that someone picks up in Spain and reads when they go on their vacation. That’s never been translated into English, because it didn’t seem like it would make a ton of money for one of the big presses, and the small presses are looking for something that’s more patently literary. Amazon’s taken up a lot of those kind of books, which is really fascinating and fills in a wide range of what the aesthetic is in these different countries.    News “Amazon plans to open a Chicago bookstore in Lakeview” by Lauren Zumbach at The Chicago Tribune - August 25, 2016 Kindle Reading Fund Worldreader.org Amazon Worldreader video at YouTube - August 24, 2016 “Denver Public Library is Lending Wifi Hotspots” by Nate Hoffelder at The Digital Reader - August 20, 2016 “Amazon Starts Car Research and Review Site” at Associated Press - August 25, 2016 Amazon press release on Amazon Vehicles - August 25, 2016 Amazon jobs listing for Sr. Product Mgr, US Books   Interview with Chad Post Open Letter Books, the University of Rochester’s nonprofit, literary translation press Amazon author page for Julio Cortazar Hopscotch: A Novel by Julio Cortazar Dalkey Archive Press Amazon author page for Raymond Queneau Quail Ridge Books Rage by Zygmunt Miloszewski The Complete Review and The Literary Saloon run by Michael Orthofer The Complete Review Guide to Contemporary World Fiction by M.
