The Delulu Diaries Podcast

So, Caitlin killed the Pope. Since we're apparently manifestation witches, we discuss the unfortunate death of Pope Francis and what this means for the upcoming Conclave, including the top three picks for the next papal. We also woke up to the TikTok video that stopped the entire Australian nation: Kath Ebbs detailing their reunion with Jojo Siwa after their month-long stint in UK Celebrity Big Brother where the entire world watched them form a *questionable* relationship with Love Island UK alumni, Chris Hughes. Moving on to sport, we recap the weekend that was from Collingwood and Western Bulldogs' wins to the abysmal performance from the Adelaide Crows, and Caitlin's diminishing Boyfriend League.  This week, we headed back to the cinemas to watch Until Dawn—a film adaptation of the popular PlayStation horror video game that allows players to choose their fate, but with a twist. Turning to more light-hearted viewing, Caitlin shares her initial thoughts on Seth Rogan's The Studio on Apple TV. Lastly, Caitlin reviews The Great Alone by Kristin Hannah before discussing her current read, Open Water by Caleb Azumah Nelson.   Follow us on socials: Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/thedeluludiariespod TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@thedeluludiariespod Danika's Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/danikarbrown Caitlin's Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/caitlinsltr   Watch the episode in full on YouTube: https://youtu.be/UqhxjHXUKnY

Detransition, Baby by Torrey Peters is centred on the lives of Reece, a trans woman, her ex Ames, and her ex's new lover, Katrina. Yomi recommends Caleb Azumah Nelson's debut book, Open Water, a lyrical romance story set in South East London. And Harriett's choice is Intimacies, a novel by Katie Kitamura, where the main character is an interpreter at the International Court in The Hague, where unease bubbles below the surface of the novel's cool narration.

Caleb Azumah Nelson made a huge impression with his debut novel Open Water, an emotionally complex novel of love that was also a celebration of black creativity. His new novel, Small Worlds, continues both of those themes, whilst also looking at notions of family, home and a connection with the authors own Ghanaian culture. We sat down for a talk about love, memory and the creative urge.

Candice Carty-Williams joins me for a spoiler-free discussion of her sophomore novel, People Person. In People Person, Candice writes about serious issues in a light-hearted way that's full of dry humor. She explores questions of obligation to family — especially family to whom you were not previously close. Plus, Candice shares her book recommendations! This post contains affiliate links, through which I make a small commission when you make a purchase (at no cost to you!). Highlights Candice's inspiration behind this story and what it was like writing during a lockdown. The big differences between Candice's first version of People Person and the final book. How Candice's own experiences impacted writing the character of Cyril and his 5 children. Her decision to portray Cyril as a likable guy, despite him being an absent parent. Candice talks about whether she'd consider a follow-up book to People Person. What being a ‘people person' means to Candice, and how she decided on the title. How Candice and her publisher decided on the marketing synopsis for People Person. Why she said in the Acknowledgments section of People Person that this was a novel she didn't think she'd be able to finish.

In deze ietwat langere aflevering (we praten een uurtje vol) bespreken Trees en ik 4 romans en 1 non-fictieboek waarin telkens gevoelige maar bijzonder sterke personages voorkomen. Ook het non-fictieboek dat Trees las (Stil, de kracht van introvert zijn in een wereld die niet ophoudt met kletsen van Susan Cain) wijst er ons op dat het helemaal niet zo logisch is dat de wereld gericht is op extraverten want we kunnen allemaal even sterk in onze schoenen staan. Boeken van dienst zijn: De overlevenden van Alex Schulman, Matrix van Lauren Groff, De hemel is altijd paars van Sholeh Rezazadeh, Stil, de kracht van introvert zijn in een wereld die niet ophoudt met kletsen van Susan Cain en Open Water van Caleb Azumah Nelson.

On this episode, we were joined via Zoom by the delightful Caleb Azumah Nelson, author of the acclaimed debut novel "Open Water." In this conversation, Caleb spoke to us about his unique background, his inspirations, his love of music and photography, and his cultural touchstones like Zadie Smith and the 2016 feature film, Moonlight. He also waxes lyrical about the myriad pleasures of deepest Southeast London, perhaps a city unto itself. Additionally, Matt and I do an extended ramble in the introduction about our favourite debut novels from the recent past (and not-so-recent past). However, if you are just here to listen to a brilliant author speak, the conversation with him begins at 7:32.

Hello Everyone! Thank you for tuning in to Episode 8 of Season 2 of Semiscribbled Podcast. In this episode, I talk about Open Water by Caleb Azumah Nelson. This book was a pleasure to listen to. Truly. Caleb's prose is magical (his voice is soothing too). As a debut novel, I am looking forward to more of his writing. This was my first deviation from this podcast's dedication to African women or women of black descent and I am not mad at it (but I can't promise more of this straying!). The story is about young love, identity, and art. I enjoyed it thoroughly and I hope you will too.
