Books on the Nightstand published our final episode in July 2016. This is a place for listeners to find old episodes. 

I'm sorry that we don't have show notes for all of the episodes, and that the episodes do not have consistent filenames. Still, we hope you find that the content is valuable enough to overlook those annoyances.

Thank you to all who have listened to BOTNS over the years and for those who are just discovering the podcast.

BOTNS Podcast #152: Authors Carved in Stone, Part 1

Oct 25, 2011

Welcome to part one of your Literary Mount Rushmores! We received so many calls (thank you all!) that we're splitting the show up into two episodes, one airing this week and one airing in two weeks.

Rather than a laundry list of all of the authors mentioned, I thought it might be fun to create a word cloud of the names. For those unfamiliar with word clouds, the more common a word, the larger it is. So, for the cloud below F. Scott Fitzgerald and Jane Austen were the most popular authors. When we air part 2 we'll update the cloud to reflect all of the calls.

 

 

I'm not sure there's a mountain in the world big enough to fit all of those faces, and that's only half of the calls!
