"Outside of a dog, a book is a man's best friend. Inside of a dog it's too dark to read." - Groucho Marx
Back in 2018, Darren Lee started the podcast Inside of a Dog, speaking to a variety of poets and fiction writers about their work and books in general. The podcast was put on indefinite hiatus after a year and some episodes were "accidentally" wiped due to a careless keystroke. A few episodes survive and now live here.

It was Darren's book of 2018 and is well worth checking out (Episode recorded early 2019)
