An invaluable resource
East Asian studies nerds, look no further - this is the podcast for you! I've been a listener for a while and love this show, along with many of the other New Books podcasts. Even though I've living in Asia for years, I feel like this show has done a lot to increase my understanding of the region. Although I may not pick up every book that is covered, the discussions are thoroughly informative and work perfectly fine as stand-alone interviews. The show also gets points for its host, Carla, who is so pleasant to listen to! Please keep up the great work!
