| Tags: commerce and culture, business of books | Last night, Open Letter hosted a panel entitled “Commerce and Culture: The Impact of the Business of Books on the Literature of the Americas.” I moderated this panel, which featured Lisa Dillman, who translates from Spanish and Catalan; Jack Kirchoff, the book review editor and paperbacks columnist at the Toronto Globe & Mail; Daniel Shapiro, director of literature at the Americas Society and editor of Review; and Jonathon Welch, co-founder and buyer at Talking Leaves Books.
It was a wide-ranging discussion, covering—as you can imagine by reading the brief bios above—the business of books, reviewing, translating, and bookselling.
