John Ghazvinian Interviewed

John Ghazvinian, author of “The Curse of Oil” in the new issue of VQR, will be interviewed today at 5:00 p.m. by Coy Barefoot on Charlottesville radio station WINA. A podcast of the interview should be available early next week and we’ll supply a link when it’s posted. We posted Ghazvinian’s essay on 12/26 after news of another pipeline explosion in Nigeria, and thanks to linking sites like Arts & Letters Daily and Bookslut, it’s become one of the most-read essays on our site in the past three years. WINA will also be interviewing David Morris, author of “The Big Suck: Notes from the Jarhead Underground” and VQR editor Ted Genoways in the coming weeks.

UPDATE: the podcast of Ghazvinian’s interview is now available at the Charlottesville Podcasting Network.
