Bill Ectric’s collection Themes, Dreams, and Weems includes a number of curious things, among them an interview he conducted with me about my translation of Pierre-Corneille Blessebois’s libertine novel The Zombie of Great Peru. Weems, if you were wondering, was the notorious Parson Weems, who concocted the story of George Washington’s antics with the cherry tree. Pick up a copy and enjoy what Bill Ectric has to say about him and about many other interesting things.
