Audrey Layden currently assists in the production of a half-hour
show about the local arts scene and produces an hour-long show that
teaches both English and Spanish as second languages. She is a
voracious reader with eclectic tastes in both fiction and
non-fiction and is, as well, an existential therapist in private
practice in Carrboro.
Paul Nagy is managing editor of Wordtrade.com, an internet review
devoted to appraisals of academic titles in the humanities and
sciences. He is the founding editor of
Chapel Hill Review of Books,
dedicated to showcasing locally written fiction and nonfiction. He
is also the host of WCOM Touchstones that deals with local religions
and spiritual experience.
Carrboro Book Beat is devoted to the literary life of the greater
Triangle. The show features reviews of new books by local authors,
interviews with working fiction and nonfiction writers, editors,
poets, journalists, publishers and all others engaged with the
written arts. Our mandate is to showcase local as well as visiting
authors and newly published works of topical interest. We are paying
attention and want our local authors to get plenty of air time!
Carrboro Book Beat shows are recorded and available to download as
podcasts.
Carrboro Book Beat is
underwritten by the
Regulator Bookshop.
