Books & Looks: Real Books for Real Readers was started as a literary podcast to supplement Blaine Desantis’ website, ViewsOnBooks.com, and expand into audio and video interviews with authors.
With Books & Looks, Blaine’s goal is to focus on real books that real people will read. At least half of the books he reviews are either new authors or unknown authors that many in the general public are unaware of. After a segment reviewing books or interviewing authors, Blaine ends each episode with a discussion of the movies and TV shows he is currently watching.

This Week’s Episode
What do an Inca bridge master, a Sardinian pasta maker, and a Taiwanese movie poster painter have in common? They’re among the last of their kind, preserving cultural traditions that may soon vanish forever. In this thought-provoking episode, author Eliot Stein takes us on a journey across the globe to meet these “Custodians of Wonder” and confront the question: What do we lose when ancient crafts and knowledge fade away?
