Just in time for the holidays, Lobo and Trash sort through some books that are best devoured during the time between the years. From dysfunctional families to wartime crimes, from black magic to immigrants vying to become American, and from matricide to composing poems in one’s head, they cover the dark literature best consumed in cozy environs and with the lights left burning. Happy Holidays to all listeners!
