We are kicking off the new year with a serious blast from the past. A recording from the very first Tin House writers workshop in the summer of 2003 with novelist, short story writer, poet, playwright and screenwriter, Denis Johnson. This three part episode includes a remarkable reading from Johnson&#8217;s novella Train Dreams, an interview of Johnson by writer Chris Offutt that is an unforgettable exploration of a writer&#8217;s process and philosophy, and finally, after Denis takes a cigarette break, Johnson, Offutt and Charles D&#8217;Ambrosio perform the first act of Johnson&#8217;s play Psychos Never Dream.
Books by all three of today&#8217;s writers can be found in this episode&#8217;s <a href="https://bookshop.org/lists/books-from-denis-johnson-episode">BookShop</a>. And you can find out more about all the potential benefits and rewards of joining the Between the Covers community as a listener-supporter at the show&#8217;s <a href="http://patreon.com/betweenthecovers">Patreon page</a>.
