Katrin Zipse: Moosland. 1949Vier Jahre nach Kriegsende veröffentlichte der Isländische Bauernverband eine Anzeige in den Lübecker Nachrichten. Gesucht wurden junge deutsche Frauen, die auf isländischen Bauernhöfen mitarbeiten würden. Viele Isländerinnen waren damals in die Städte abgewandert oder mit den abziehenden amerikanischen GIs in die USA gegangen. Einige Bauern suchten also nicht nur Arbeitskräfte, sondern auch Heiratskandidatinnen. Etwa 300 junge deutsche Frauen folgten dem Aufruf. Für Katrin Zipse Stoff für ihren Roman Moosland. Claudia Ingenhoven hat das Buch gelesen. Steffen Kopetzky: Die HarzreiseVor 200 Jahren durchwanderte Heinrich Heine den Harz und schuf mit seiner Harzreise ein bis heute berühmtes literarisches Reisebild. 200 Jahre später folgt der Autor Steffen Kopetzky dieser Spur und findet eine von sozialen und ökologischen Veränderungen geprägte Landschaft. Und wie Heine auch hat Kopetzky seine Beobachtungen und Erfahrungen von unterwegs in einem literarischen Text festgehalten, nun erschienen beim Rowohlt Verlag. "Die Harzreise - eine Deutschlanderkundung" ist durchaus ein Buch übers Wandern und ist doch zugleich voller kluger Gedanken zur politischen Gegenwart. Jörg Schieke hat sich mit Steffen Kopetky über diese Harzreise unterhalten.Christine Thürmer: Hiking Asia. Zu gern schauen wir Anderen bei ihren Abenteuern zu. In Videos, Lichtbildvorträgen, Büchern und natürlich im Internet verfolgen wir, wie sie sich die Welt etwa erwandern. Eine von ihnen ist Christine Thürmer. Sie bezeichnet sich selbst als die "meistgewanderte Frau der Welt" und verweist auf ihrer Webseite auf unfassbare 70.000 Kilometer zu Fuß, 37.000 Kilometer mit dem Fahrrad und 7.000 Kilometer mit dem Boot. Christine Thürmer hat mehrere Bücher geschrieben. Das Neueste erzählt von ihren Touren durch Japan, Südkorea und Taiwan. Sabine Frank stellt es vor.Felicitas Hoppe: ReisenSeit die Autorin 2012 mit dem Georg-Büchner-Preis prämiert wurde, ist sie in aller Munde, denn diese Auszeichnung gilt als wichtigste Literaturtrophäe im deutschsprachigen Raum. Insgesamt veröffentlichte die 1965 in Hameln geborene Schriftstellerin bisher mehr als zwei Dutzend Werke, darunter die von der Kritik euphorisch gefeierten Reiseromane "Pigafetta" und "Paradiese, Übersee". Jetzt hat die Künstlerin dem Thema Reisen einen Essayband gewidmet. Ulf Heise stellt ihn vor. Ali Smith: GliffDie Schottin Ali Smith gehört in Großbritannien zu den ganz großen zeitgenössischen Schriftstellerinnen. Schon mit ihrer Jahreszeiten-Tetralogie war sie sowas wie eine literarische Ersthelferin für alle, die von den damals aktuellen politischen Entwicklungen überrannt wurden: Egal, ob es der Brexit war, der Rechtsruck oder die Corona-Pandemie. Auch in ihrem neuen Roman gibt sich Ali Smith politisch. Das Buch hört auf den rätselhaften "Gliff" und Kais Harrabi stellt es vor.Und der Tipp zum Schluss: Moni Ports wunderbares kleine Buch "Women's Words. Fünfzig Frauen, fünfzig Sätze". Mit besten Empfehlungen!

In Books: A Manifesto (Weidenfeld) subtitled How to Build a Library, poet and critic Ian Patterson reflects on a life spent with and formed by books. Now, as he constructs the last of many libraries, he makes an impassioned case for the radical importance of reading in our lives - from Proust to Jilly Cooper, from golden-age detective novels to avant-garde poetry. He talked about books and libraries with the novelist Ali Smith who, in Public Library and Other Stories, explored our many-faceted fascination with the book.

Il miglior formaggio al mondo è greco, arriva in Italia Hbo Max, ne parliamo con Antonio Visca. Viola Marconi ci presenta 3 libri: La grammatica del bianco di Angelo Carotenuto, Sulle strade di mio padre di José Henrique Bortoluci e Gliff di Ali Smith.

De Schotse schrijver Ali Smith heeft als geen ander de vinger aan de pols van de tijd – haar werk getuigt van oprechte betrokkenheid bij wat er speelt in de wereld. Ze schrijft over onderwerpen als gastvrijheid, gender, klimaat en sociale verhoudingen – en dat altijd met een warme, menselijke blik.Bij velen werd ze bekend door haar vier-seizoenenreeks Herfst, Winter, Lente en Zomer. In 2023 kregen we tijdens Exploring Stories een kijkje in haar maakproces, in het brein dat schuilt achter haar verhalen. Wie inspireert haar? Is schrijven een politieke daad? En waarom is het van belang om altijd de vraag te stellen: wie vertelt het verhaal?Exploring Stories is een podcast van ILFUPresentatie, selectie en eindredactie: Lisa Prinsen en Gijs WilbrinkMuziek: Evert Smit & Vincent Shore Hosted on Acast.

Playful, mind-expanding, dark, funny and endlessly rewarding, Ali Smith's dystopian parable of an authoritarian future was one of the most talked-about new books when published in hardback last year. To mark the appearance of Gliff in paperback, Smith returned to the shop to talk about it with film-maker Sarah Wood. They also spoke about So in the Spruce Forest, an essay originally written for ‘Edvard Munch: Trembling Earth', an exhibition in 2023 in Oslo which has now appeared in book form, beautifully printed by the Munch Museum.

*TW: Gewalt gegen Frauen* Janet ist 16 Jahre alt, als sie einen gewaltsamen Tod stirbt. Ihre Familie will sie vergessen, nur ihre Tiere trauern um das einzelgängerische Mädchen. Der Roman "O Caledonia" von Elspeth Barker rollt Janets Leben auf, wirft Schlaglichter auf ihre Beziehungen zu ihrer Familie, zu Geistern und Tieren. Mit letzteren fühlt sie sich am stärksten verbunden, möchte sie doch am liebsten als geschlechtsloses Wesen in der Natur leben. Aber kann ein Mädchen wie Janet ihren Platz in der Welt finden?  Wir stellen euch in dieser Folge den Roman "O Caledonia" vor - ein Buch, das von Autorinnen wie Maggie O'Farrell und Ali Smith in den Himmel gelobt wurde - zurecht. Trotzdem war der Roman lange Zeit vergriffen und wurde erst 2021 wieder neu aufgelegt. Wie es dazu kam - und warum Frauen es so schwer haben, in den schottischen Literaturkanon aufgenommen zu werden - hört ihr in dieser Folge.  Quellen:  Literary Hub, "Maggie O'Farrell on Elspeth Barker's Modern Scottish Classic, O Caledonia", https://lithub.com/maggie-ofarrell-on-elspeth-barkers-modern-scottish-classic-o-caledonia/ (20.9.2022) The Guardian, "Elspeth Barker Obituary", https://www.theguardian.com/books/2022/may/03/elspeth-barker-obituary (3.5.2022) Der Financial Times Article ist leider mittlerweile hinter einer Paywall: https://www.ft.com/content/56a1cb74-d7e1-11df-b044-00144feabdc0

Femke van der Laan gaat met Eric de Vroedt in gesprek.

Gliff, the latest novel from Ali Smith, forms the first part of a duology; its title, the Scots word for a glimpse or shock, will be echoed but not replicated in next year's Glyph. In a dystopian, Kafkaesque fictional lanscape, Smith explores how we make meaning and are made by it, and what it would actually mean for the next generation to sort out our increasingly toxic world.Smith read from the novel and was in conversation with artist and filmmaker Sarah Wood.Find more events at the Bookshop: https://lrb.me/eventspodGet the book: https://www.londonreviewbookshop.co.uk/stock/gliff-ali-smith Hosted on Acast.

Ali Smith, a portrait and documentary photographer, moved to the UK from NYC, where she built a career shooting for The Guardian, The New York Times, and more. She's shot campaigns for Rimmel, Disney, and Johnson & Johnson and published two acclaimed photography books—Momma Love earned praise from The NY Times and Gloria Steinem. Her work, rooted in gender equality and environmentalism, includes a grant-funded project on incarcerated mothers. She's exhibited and taught internationally, mentoring young women in photography. Also a writer and former touring musician, her memoir The Ballad of Speedball Baby dropped back in January 2024 via Blackstone Publishing.

In Ali Smith's Gliff, two children wake up to find that someone has painted a red line around their home. They've been marked "unverifiable" and they're at risk of being captured. The dystopian near-future in which they live is a world of government surveillance and environmental destruction – and one without libraries. In today's episode, Smith talks with NPR's Scott Simon about the authoritarian themes in her novel. They discuss what makes authoritarianism feel attractive and safe, Smith's former career as an advertising copywriter, and the connection between slogans and tribalism.To listen to Book of the Day sponsor-free and support NPR's book coverage, sign up for Book of the Day+ at plus.npr.org/bookofthedayLearn more about sponsor message choices: podcastchoices.com/adchoicesNPR Privacy Policy

Jenna Todd of Time Out Bookstore reviews Gliff by Ali Smith published by Hamish Hamilton.

Blitz - Ali Smith - The Hays Code

Arifa Akbar and Peter Bradshaw join Tom Sutcliffe to review the film Anora which was written and directed by Sean Baker. Set in contemporary New York the romantic drama won the Palme d'Or at Cannes. They also review the stage production of Dr. Strangelove. The original film version of the black comedy starred Peter Sellers in three roles, in this version Steve Coogan takes on four parts. And they discuss Ali Smith's 13th novel Gliff which focuses on a brutal surveillance state in the future.Plus, French composer Gabriel Faure is best known for his Requiem – but to mark 100 years since his death, cellist Steven Isserlis tells Tom how he's playing a series of concerts at London's Wigmore Hall, to highlight his other work including his cello sonatas and piano quintets. Presenter: Tom Sutcliffe Producer: Claire Bartleet

After the completion of her seasonal quartet, readers will have been wondering where Ali Smith might take us next and it shouldn't be a surprise that a writer who had so successfully captured our present moment should seek to extend her gaze just a little further into an all too imaginable near future. Gliff forms the first part of a two book sequence, followed next year by its sister novel, Glyph. We sat down with her to discuss the process of storytelling, the nature of dystopia, and why she still has hope for our future.

The Scottish author reflects on the stories she grew up with, the influence of feminism and how time moves in circular patterns. Ali Smith has been shortlisted for the Booker Prize four times. Her 2014 novel How to Be Both won the Women's Prize for fiction and the Costa Book Award for novel. She spoke with Eleanor Wachtel in 2018 about the first two books in her Seasonal Quartet series, Autumn and Winter.

In this episode of the Project Narrative Podcast, Jim Phelan and Dorothee Birke discuss Ali Smith's short story, “Text for the Day,” from her 1995 collection, Free Love and Other Stories. Dorothee Birke is professor for Anglophone Literatures at the University of Innsbruck, and her many areas of expertise include the history of the novel,… Continue reading Episode 34: Jim Phelan & Dorothee Birke — Ali Smith's “Text for the Day”

Nádasdy Ádám nemcsak új verseskötettel jelentkezett az idei könyvhétre, de beszédet is mondott a megnyitó ünnepségen, így adta magát, hogy elhívjuk a Nem rossz könyvek nyári epizódjába. Az új, Billeg a csónak című kötet mellett beszélgettünk az angol nyelv változásairól, magyar klasszikusok „újrafordításáról”, melegség és írás kapcsolatáról, Petőfiről és az életnél és halálnál általánosabb kérdésekről.  A tartalomból: 00.00 Mennyire lehet olvasni választási kampány véghajrájában? (Spoiler: nem nagyon.) És egy kapcsolódó könyv: Ali Smith - Ősz. A könyvhéten azért jártunk: két könyv, amivel távoztunk: Giorgio Agamben: A nyitott és Mircea Cărtărescu - Ne kiáltsd sohasem segítség (Visky András fordításában.) 4.20 Vendégünk: Nádasdy Ádám. Hogyan kezd el már valaki gyerekként foglalkozni a nyelvekkel?  És hogyan kezdett el valaki épp angolul tanulni a szocializmusban?  Az angol, mint egzotikus, távoli nyelv, ami jó befektetésnek bizonyult. És mit tett az angollal, hogy azóta ennyire domináns nyelvvé vált?  19.10 Magyar klasszikusok újrafordítása: Bánk bán, Csongor és Tünde és Az ember tragédiája. Miért kellett ezeket újrafordítani, és miért pont ezekre esett a választás? Amiért az esztétika professzorok haragszanak: a gondolat, hogy a tartalom fontosabb, mint a tényleges szövegi létük. És mit lehet kezdeni a Szigeti veszedelemmel? 26.25 Segíti vagy hátráltatja a versírást, ha valaki ennyire ismeri a nyelvet? És mikor jut egyáltalán idő az írásra? Tanítás és versírás egymás mellett. A legjobb múzsa a határidő.  31.30 Az első verses kötete csak 37 évesen jelent meg. Eleve lassan készültek a kötetek akkoriban + melegként nehéz volt még erről írni. Fiatalkori versek a mostani kötetben bukkannak fel. És mi változott azzal és azóta, amikor megjelentek az első novellái a melegségről?  37.55 Megidézett költők a Billeg a csónak kötetben, és Petőfi státusza: ő az, akit Nádasdy Ádám sosem irigyelt. Hülyét csinált magából sokszor, kérdés, öregkorában mit szólt volna néhány fiatalkori próbálkozásához. És beszélünk az új versek nyomán az öregkor veszélytelenségéről és az életnél meg halálnál általánosabb kérdésekről. „Olvasmányainkból is tudjuk, hogy meg kell halnunk előbb-utóbb, de olyan nehéz erről írni”.  39.55 Könyvheti nyitóbeszédében gazdaságról, gazdagokról és irodalomtámogatásokról, magándíjakról beszélt. Miért ezt a témát választotta?  48.20 Egy Shakespeare dráma, ami méltánytalanul kevés figyelmet kap: II. Richárd (elérhető Spiró György fordításában).

The vibrant style Ali Smith has brought to her writing and photography—featured regularly in The New York Times, The Guardian, and other publications internationally—was forged in New York's underground music scene where she played bass in the seminal punk / blues / avant-garde band, Speedball Baby. After touring worldwide and recording several albums, Ali released two books of photography about women's lives. The first, Laws of the Bandit Queens, led to a feature on OWN, Oprah Winfrey's television network. The second, Momma Love: How the Mother Half Lives, won two International Book Awards, was praised by The New York Times, and Gloria Steinem called it “a gift to moms.” Since its release in January, 2024, Ali's memoir The Ballad of Speedball Baby has garnished much critical acclaim and impassioned reader responses, reached #1 on Amazon, and led (amongst other things) to a BBC Sounds interview.

ABOUT ALI SMITH AND THE BALLAD OF SPEEDBALL BABY"Ali Smith's The Ballad of Speedball Baby is a sometimes-harrowing ride poetically described in neon prose. Ali takes me to places I've been myself as a fellow 'woman of the road' and rocked and rolled. She brings it all back home so vividly with humor, originality, and love-and 'oh-yeah-that-happened-to-me-too' truthfulness. Like the touring band's rite of passage: crashing in a stranger's house in Where-am-I? USA and barely escaping with your life and bass guitar.or bartending in an East Village dive bar. It's a special experience being a Woman in Rock, and as Ali's story unfolds, she'll bring you along for the trip of your life."-- Kate Pierson, the B-52'sA Stylist Magazine (UK) Pick of Best New NonfictionA Kobo Pick of Best Book of the Month in Biographies & MemoirsThe Ballad of Speedball Baby is the thrilling, darkly hilarious, and heart-wrenchingly vulnerable story of Ali Smith's coming-of-age in '90s New York as she commits to the messy, exhilarating life of a musician and must survive the slings and arrows society reserves for women who refuse to comply.As an only child reeling from the demolition of her parents' toxic marriage, the New York City underground music scene offers a young Ali a different family of misfits and talented outsiders to belong to.She becomes the bass player for edgy band Speedball Baby, a decision that will take her around the world-from onstage at the legendary CBGBs to the red-light district of Amsterdam. She's often the only girl in a broken-down tour van, being strip-searched at the Croatian border, chased by lunatics, and navigating the seedy underbelly of a male-dominated music scene full of addiction, violence, and misogyny-all while keeping her sharp wit and dark humor intact.Rimmed with heavy black eyeliner and smelling faintly of cheap booze, The Ballad of Speedball Baby is a pulse-quickening, unpredictable ride through the '90s music scene-alternately terrifying, hilarious, and painfully evocative-as well as a love letter to the power of female solidarityALI SMITH BIOThe vibrant style Ali Smith has brought to her writing and photography-featured regularly in The New York Times, The Guardian, and other publications internationally-was forged in New York's underground music scene where she played bass in the seminal punk / blues / avant-garde band Speedball Baby.

The ideal of ‘conversation' recurs in modern thought as a symbol and practice central to ethics, democratic politics, and thinking itself. Interweaving readings of fiction and philosophy in a ‘conversational' style inspired by Stanley Cavell, Fiction, Philosophy and the Ideal of Conversation (Edinburgh UP, 2023) clarifies this lofty yet vague ideal, while developing a revitalizing model for interdisciplinary literary studies. It argues that conversation is key to exemplary responses to sceptical doubt in ordinary language and political philosophy – where scepticism threatens ethics and democratic politics – and in works of British fiction spanning from Jane Austen through Ali Smith. It shows that for these writers, conversation can shift attention from metaphysical doubts regarding our capacity to know ‘reality' and other people, to ethical, democratic, and aesthetic action. The book moreover proposes – and models – ‘conversational criticism' as a framework linking literary studies to broader political and ethical commitments, while remaining responsive to aesthetic form.
