Not sure if this was already posted or not, but this is one of the most extraordinary and fascinating interviews I've read in a long time. One can only hope the post Obama presidency is just him going around interviewing literary authors. The audio version is excellent as well (http://itunes.com/nybooks). Part 2 touches on the importance of reading novels, democracy, among many other topics. Great stuff!
