Growing up in Belfast during the Troubles in a "mixed marriage" family—Protestant father, Catholic mother—Caldwell developed a unique perspective that informs her award-winning writing. Lucy describes writing during the pandemic and experiencing "a portal between worlds" as she researched the Blitz while living through COVID lockdowns. Lucy Caldwell was born in Belfast in 1981. She is the author of three previous novels, several stage plays and radio dramas, and three collections of short stories. She won the BBC National Short Story Award in 2021 for “All the People Were Mean and Bad.” Other awards include the Rooney Prize for Irish Literature, the George Devine Award, the Dylan Thomas Prize, and a Major Individual Artist Award from the Arts Council of Northern Ireland. She was elected a Fellow of the Royal Society of Literature in 2018, and in 2019, she was the editor of Being Various: New Irish Short Stories.

Live from the Book Shop: John Updike's Ghost

Hannah's been busy grinding out elementary school book fairs (drug-dealer mentality for the win), so the John Updike's Ghost podcast has put in a call to the bullpen, and out walks ... Cyndle Plaisted Rials! Cyndle is a writer and creative writing teacher who teamed with Sam on a book earlier this year, as well as the Beer & Weed project, so you know she's ready to go. She has not, however, read "To Kill a Mockingbird" or "Of Mice and Men," so weird stuff is on the way.  Here's what she and Sam had to chat about this week: - "All the Pretty Horses," by Cormac McCarthy — Sam has never read this, but it's awesome. If you've never read it, you should do it now. Just be prepared for very few commas.  - "Lady Macbeth," by Ava Reid — Cyndle finds this a little better than Shakespeare's historical works, anyway. It's a little bit of a "Wicked" situation and it might help to read the original; what is Lysander doing in this book? Decent audiobook.  - "Pickleballers," by Ilana Long — A racy book about people who play pickleball and like to bang. Sam laughed a few times, but didn't manage to finish this. Still, if you like romantic comedies, this is fine.  - "Rejection," by Tony Tulathimutte — You might have seen the story "The Feminist"? That's the lead story in this collection, which is a serious collection of bad dudes. And hyper-online.

Enfants des années 1980, ayant grandi en Europe de l'Est, Elitza Gueorguieva et Sergueï Shikalov présentent deux livres originaux par la forme et la langue. Écrits en français, ils cassent la linéarité du récit, use de l'humour et d'expressions détournées pour démonter les clichés et s'émanciper des normes et des manières de penser.Avec Odyssée des filles de l'Est, Elitza Gueorguieva dresse le portrait de deux jeunes femmes bulgares en France, sans cesse renvoyées au stéréotype de la “fille de l'Est”, la prostituée. Sergueï Shikalov évoque quant à lui dans Espèces dangereuses la montée de menaces sur les libertés dans les années 200 en Russie. Il évoque une Russie méconnue où l'on a pu être libre dans l'amour et dans l'expression, sans être stigmatisé ou pénalisé. Auprès de la jeune génération, la Russie de Vladimir Poutine efface les souvenirs des beaux jours avec des lois homophobes et liberticides.
