The Leonard Lopate Show | May 10, 2010
Guest host Kenji Jasper explores the world of do-it-yourself home repair with Alvin and Lawrence Ubell, the self-appointed “Gurus of How-To.” Next, Paul Theroux tells us about his latest novel, Blinding Light. Then, Clifford Ross explores the boundaries of photography with a new collection of work: Wave Music. And Kevin Smokler, Tom Bissell, and Elizabeth Spiers challenge those that say literature is in decline, and argue instead that American writing can look forward to a bright future.
