This week the editor of the weird online 'zine Farrago's Wainscot explains consciousness, recommends the books of Daniel Dennett and describes his first novel Amaranth which is due out from Bantam next year. The episode also features Darin Bradley's story "Basement Borges" which was published in the first issue of Diet Soap in 2007.
