The editors of The European Review of Books will share tales of felicity and failure from their years as magazine makers. The ERB, which began as a crowd-funded idea in 2021, was first published in June 2022 and has continued to grow, attracting new readers of all backgrounds across the globe. In this playful conversation, the editors will feature some of the more painful episodes in the ERB’s history and ideas about how not to make a magazine.
