"Threshold" by Rob Doyle

Rob Doyle (The Other Irish Tradition (ed.), Here Are the Young Men) joins Vince Francone and Chad to talk about his most recent book, Threshold, and to tease his forthcoming novel, Cameo. Through the lens of Doyle’s work, they talk about a host of topics: mushrooms, DMT, autofiction, narrative architecture, the search for spiritual enlightenment, John O’Brien, Flann O’Brien, (the always apostrophe-less) Finnegans Wake, and much more.

The next book to be featured in this series is The Collected Plays of Dermot Healy.

This episode’s music is “The Diamond Sea” by Sonic Youth.
