Chad, Brian, and Kaija venture into the darkness and turn off the light on Melville's The Confidence-Man: His Masquerade, one of the oddest, most slippery books to be included in the Two Month Review. They talk about transcendentalism, self-reliance, Melville's interludes, Jean Giono's Melville, and more.

And here's the "Grifters Gonna Grift" t-shirt mentioned in this episode.

Next episode will cover pages 1-61 of Rodrigo Fresán's Melvill. You can find the full reading schedule here.

This week's music is "The System Only Dreams in Total Darkness" by The National.
