About this listen
After sitting in the archive for over a year, we’re finally releasing this conversation with Bo S.
Bo was there in the early days. He served as the first World Literature Conference Chair and was one of the members who stepped forward when the question was asked, “Who’s going to write the book?”
The answer he got was simple: “Any addict.”
And Bo said, “Well, I’m an addict.”
He would go on to be one of only two members to attend all seven World Literature Conferences, playing a role in the development of what would become the Basic Text.
This episode wasn’t easy to release.
When we recorded this, Bo’s health was declining. At times he was sharp and clear, and at other times he struggled with details and timelines. Because of that, we held onto this recording for a long time. We wanted to make sure anything we shared respected both the history and Bo.
After going back through the archive and carefully editing this conversation, what remains is something honest and human.
This may not be our cleanest episode but it’s real.
