We take an incredible journey through Spain's 20th century, the setting of this month's book, The Shadow of the Wind, with our guest Sara Brenneis, an Amherst professor specializing in this era. Delving more deeply into Spain's social, political, religious, and economic context opened up this book in ways we never expected. Linny has a new admiration for the women in the book. Nancy is amazed by the authorial restraint of not explaining everything shown by the author, Carlos Ruiz Zafon.

Mara Barazzutti"La finestra su Amsterdam"Primalpe Editorewww.primalpe.it"Ogni libro, ogni volume che vedi possiede un'anima, l'anima di chi lo ha scritto e l'anima di coloro che lo hanno letto, di chi ha vissuto e di chi ha sognato grazie ad esso."Carlos Ruiz ZafonÈ la storia di tre che vivono la solitudine, è l'intreccio di tre vite che si incontrano un un ristorante di Amsterdam generando un vortice di sentimenti tra amore e amicizia con lo sfondo di ponti e canali, quadri di Van Gogh e scorci della capitale olandese. È un romanzo sull'amicizia e sulla forza che si ricava dall'affetto di chi ci sta accanto; è un percorso nell'animo dei tre personaggi e soprattutto in quello della protagonista Chiara che deve ritrovare se stessa, una ricerca faticosa, ma che premia sempre.Così comincia:Il letto sembrava una lastra incandescente.

It's summer as I write this and, for many of us, it's high season for leisure reading.It causes me to think of my all-time favorite novel… the one I couldn't put down and the one I keep re-reading over the years. That book is none other than Carlos Ruiz Zafon's brilliant first of the brilliant Cemetery of Forgotten Books series and its alluring title is The Shadow of the Wind. In addition to it being my favorite book, there's a story—personal in nature—that I've decided to share. It's one that I still can't fully believe and I share it in this short SuperPsyched solo episode. If my story resonates with you in any way, I'd love to hear!

Choixpitre 01 - Bienvenue dans ce premier Choixpitre. C'est Alex qui ouvre le bal en vous proposant de découvrir L'Ombre du vent et ses suites, de l'auteur espagnol Carlos Ruiz Zafon

Schon vor ca. 20 Jahren habe ich Vorträge und Seminare zum Thema Wissenschaft und Umwelt gehalten. Vieles von dem, was ich damals gesagt habe, hat sich bis heute (leider) bestätigt. Diese Episode ist so etwas wie ein Frühjahrsputz für mich: Wie steht die Einordnung der verschiedenen Ideen und Ansätze der Umweltbewegungen mit-, gegen- und zueinander? Wie steht es zwischen Theorie, Ideologie und Praxis? Werten und Aktivität? Welche Rolle spielt Wissenschaft? Wo sehen wir begriffliche Verwirrungen? Wie finden wir den Weg von, aber auch der Spalt zwischen Ethik und Praxis? Diese Episode wird die Themen keinesfalls abdecken, ich sehe es eher als ein Aufwerfen von Bällen, die zum Teil in früheren Episoden, zum Teil in späteren Episoden wieder aufgefangen und genauer betrachtet wurden oder werden sollten. Welche Ansätze und Ideologien gibt es in der Umweltbewegung? 1. De-Growth (Wachstumskritik) Wachstumskritik hat eine lange und wechselhafte Tradition, die wenigstens auf Thomas Robert Malthus um 1800 zurückgeht und immer wieder neu interpretiert wurde und wird. Eine moderne Definition der Ziele  ist: »Gerechtes Herunterskalieren von Produktion und Konsum, der das menschliche Wohlbefinden und die ökologischen Bedingungen verbessert« Wir finden in dieser Gruppe leider aber auch eine nicht zu geringe Zahl an Extremisten, denen auch die radikale Reduktion der Menschheit wünschenswert erscheint um das Ziel zu erreichen, etwa: »Until such time as Homo sapiens should decide to rejoin nature, some of us can only hope for the right virus to come along.«, David Gräber 2. »Business as Usual« Wenn wir ehrlich sind, interessiert das Thema Umwelt im Alltag immer noch fast niemanden, jedenfalls dann nicht, wenn es über das Ausrollen von Wohlfühltechnologien und -ideen geht, die dem Einzelnen (scheinbar) wenig Kosten verursachen aber ein gutes Gefühl geben, etwas geleistet zu haben: »Das Ausrollen von ineffektiven Wohlfühl-Technologien ist dreifach schlecht — abgesehen vom offensichtlichen, dass sie ineffektiv sind, führt es auch dazu, dass der Druck nachlässt etwas wirkungsvolles zu tun, weil ja gehandelt wird, und vielleicht das schlimmste: es lenkt mögliche Ressourcen weg von wichtigeren Bedürfnissen.«, Steven Koonin 3. Eco-Modernismus Dder mittlerweile 101 jährige James Lovelock in seinem letzten Buch Novacen: »Das Bestreben nach einer besseren Zeit vor dem Anthropozän ist eine Phantasie. Zunächst einmal, weil es nie eine goldene Zeit frei von Wünschen und Leid gab und zweitens, weil wir, um dorthin zurück zu gelangen, die offensichtlichen Vorteile der Moderne rückgängig machen müssten« Beim Eco-Modernismus steht der Mensch im Zentrum der Veränderung aber auch der Verantwortung; Reduktion des menschlichen Einflusses auf die Natur durch Entkopplung, Intensivierung und Innovation sind der Anspruch: »Intensivierung vieler menschlicher Tätigkeiten — im besonderen Landwirtschaft, Energiegewinnung, Forstwirtschaft und Siedlung — mit dem Ziel, weniger Land zu nutzen und weniger in die natürlichen Welt einzugreifen ist der Schlüssel, menschliche Entwicklung von den negativen Einflüssen auf die Umwelt zu entkoppeln« Eco-Modernisten lehnen radikale Wachstumskritik ab. Selbst Jorgen Randers, der Mitautor der »Grenzen des Wachstums« von 1972, schreibt vor wenigen Jahren: »Der fundamentale Grund, warum die meisten Menschen Wachstum bevorzugen ist, dass es der einzige Weg ist, den moderne Gesellschaften gefunden haben um drei Probleme effektiv zu lösen: Armut, Arbeitslosigkeit und Pensionen« Aber können wir glauben, dass wir die Herausforderungen der Zeit alleine mit Technik und Wachstum lösen können? Wie lange kann das gut gehen? 4. Singularisten/Eskapisten & Post-Humanisten Die Insel oder das Landgut in Neuseeland reicht für viele Milliardäre nicht mehr aus, um sich vor den Katastrophen der Welt zu verstecken. Heute muss es der Mars, Raumstationen oder gar das Verlassen des Sonnensystems sein. Jedenfalls ist das die Vision einiger Vertreter einflussreicher US-Eliten. Sollte das doch nicht klappen, können wir uns ja in Computer hochladen und virtuell weiterleben. Oder übergeben wir als Menschen gar den Stab an intelligente Maschinen? Wer glaubt an diese Phantasien, beziehungsweise hält sie für eine wünschenswerte Zukunft? *** Im zweiten Teil dieser Episode stelle ich die Frage, was Philosophie und Ethik zu diesem Themenbereich zu sagen hat? Wer steht eigentlich im Zentrum der Betrachtung, Mensch oder Natur? Sollten wir Deep oder Shallow Ecology betreiben? Wem sollen wir folgen, Deontologen oder Utilitaristen und was ist von der »PAT« Formel zu halten? Haben die Wachstumskritiker bisher mit ihren Vorhersagen recht behalten, und selbst wenn nicht — was bedeutet dies für die Zukunft? Außerdem: nicht nur die Interessen westlicher Industrienationen zählen: »Diese verschiedenen Ansätze haben ein gemeinsames Design, das ökonomische Ziel, die Kosten des Klima-Aktivismus zu sozialisieren und die Armen die Rechnung für die Reichen zahlen zu lassen.« und »Die Weiterführung globaler Armut und niedriger Einkommen kann nicht die Klima-Strategie der reichen Welt sein.«, Samir Saran Welche Rolle spielt Ideologie und wie ist die Lücke zwischen Ideologie, Wissenschaft und tatsächlicher Umsetzung zu überbrücken. Gerade unter Aktivisten erleben wir oft ein hohes Maß an Motivation, Kritik an Missständen aber nur sehr selten kohärente und realistische Ideen, wie die Situation verbessert werden kann.  »Es zeigt sich, dass in den fortgeschrittensten Phasen der Idiotie der Ideenmangel mit Ideologieüberschuss kompensiert wird.«, Carlos Ruiz Zafon, eine Figur in Das Spiel der Engel Oftmals scheint die Medizin des Aktivismus schlimmere Folgen zu haben als die Krankheit — helfen uns die zahlreichen NGOs also, das Problem zu lösen, oder richten sie oftmals mehr Schaden als Nutzen an? »Tausende Kuhhörner, vergraben auf einem Acker, sollen für eine gute Ernte sorgen. Für Demeter-Landwirte ein gängiges Ritual. Ein Verband zwischen Biolandwirtschaft und Esoterik.«, ZDF-Bericht zur Bio-Landwirtschaft zwischen Ökologie und Esoterik Dass es nicht nur um nutzlose Esoterik geht, sondern dass inkohärente Öko-Ideen auch massive Schäden anrichten können, zeigt der radikale Versuch in Sri Lanka auf eine vermeintlich grüne Landwirtschaft umzusteigen: »Die Befürworter von Bio-Landbau, überzeugt von naturalistischen Fehlschlüssen und argwöhnisch über moderne landwirtschaftliche Forschung, können keine plausible Lösung anbieten. Was sie anbieten, wie das Disaster in Sri Lanka offen gelegt hat, ist Elend.«, Ted Nordhaus Das Experiment in Sri Lanka wurde nach wenigen Monaten beendet, weil die Folgen verheerend waren.  Ein anderes Beispiel: Greenpeace protestiert zur gleichen Zeit in England gegen ein Solarkraftwerk und in Frankreich gegen Kernkraft. Wer kann das rational nachvollziehen und unterstützen? Wenig hinterfragte Ideologisierung finden wir aber auf allen Seiten. Wie kommen wir aus diesem Patt heraus? Kann es gelingen, die vernünftigen Ideen aller Seiten zusammenführen und die wenig hilfreichen (aber lauten) Vertreter beider Seiten zu ignorieren? Es gibt gute Beispiele von Aktivisten, die tatsächlich zuhören und ihre Meinung ändern, wenn sie von besseren Argumenten überzeugt werden, wie auch Episode 46 mit der Aktivistin Zion Lights zeigt! Nehmen wir uns diese zum Vorbild. Zum Abschluss: eine ganze Reihe von Begriffen tauchen in diesem Kontext immer wieder auf, die zumindest hinterfragt werden sollten, eine kleine Auswahl diesmal: Wissenschaft und Szientismus Probleme vs. Dilemmata »Umwelt« Naturalistischer Fehlschluss Vorsorge Prinzip Zusammenfassend: wie geht es weiter? Die Zeit, wo wir uns als passive, von Natur oder Gott getriebenen Lebewesen sehen konnte ist vorbei: »Wir können uns wahrscheinlich kaum mehr so etwas wie Naturphänomene vorstellen, die im Sinne der klassischen Theodizeefrage vollständig auf Natur als Gegenkonzept zu Kultur oder Gesellschaft ausgelagert werden können. Selbst wenn ein Komet auf die Erde zurasen würde, […] würden wir das nicht alleine einem«, Armin Nassehi Wie kommen wir zu einer systemischen Sicht, zu einem Blick, die »Gaia« als ganzes betrachtet, das menschliche Wohlbefinden nicht hinten anstellt und trotzdem nicht zur Katastrophe führt?

Livros que abordámos: Shantaram, Gregory David Roberts; A Sombra do Vento, Carlos Ruiz Zafon; Goa ou o Guardião da Aurora, Richard Zimler. No fim faço uma sugestão de leitura, tendo em conta o leitor que o Kiko é, e que acho que... vale a pena.

That no series rule I have? Well, I may need to rethink it, if Book 1 can be as good as this. I sat down with bookstagrammer Maxwell Dunn and talked about a book he's read five times, THE SHADOW OF THE WIND by Carlos Ruiz Zafon. Despite this book having more Goodreads review than I ever thought possible, I hadn't heard of it and was so, so pleasantly surprised. This book is a love letter to literature, with dark academia vibes and a warm autumnal feeling. And a lot of postwar trauma. And some really crazy family dynamics. It's a complex book and we cover a lot in the episode! Huge spoiler warnings for this one, if you want to avoid spoilers, skip the parts between 25:30 to 33:00. Max and I also chat about book to movie adaptations, an ill fated trip to Barcelona, what constitutes YA literature, and so much more. Follow Max on Instagram @welldonebooks Follow the podcast on instagram and twitter @yfbpodcast Books we discuss: One Hundred Years of Solitude by Gabriel Garcia Marquez, The Goldfinch by Donna Tartt, The Angel's Game, The Prisoner of Heaven, and The Labyrinth of the Spirits all by Carlos Ruiz Zafon

Page One, produced by Booxby, celebrates the craft that goes into writing the first sentence, first paragraph and first page of your favorite books. The first page is often the most rewritten page of any book because it has to work so hard to do so much—hook the reader. We interview master storytellers on the struggles and stories behind the first page of their books.In Episode 5, we interview bestselling author Tom Barbash about all the decisions that went into the first page of his novel, The Dakota Winters, about a family living in New York City's famed Dakota apartment building in the year leading up to John Lennon's assassination. It's the fall of 1979 in New York City when twenty-three-year-old Anton Winter, back from the Peace Corps and on the mend from a nasty bout of malaria, returns to his childhood home in the Dakota. Anton's father, the famous late-night host Buddy Winter, is there to greet him, himself recovering from a breakdown. Before long, Anton is swept up in an effort to reignite Buddy's stalled career, and ends up on a perilous journey that takes him out to sea with John Lennon. Barbash shares some secrets of the craft and approaching the first page as a promise to the reader. If you're aspiring to write a modern historic novel, Tom discusses wise approaches to the painstaking research he did for The Dakota Winters and staying in a '1979' frame of mind.  About the author:Tom Barbash is an American writer of fiction and nonfiction, as well as an educator and critic. He is the author of the novel The Last Good Chance, a collection of short stories Stay Up With Me, and the bestselling nonfiction work On Top of the World: Cantor Fitzgerald, Howard Lutnick & 9/11: A Story of Loss & Renewal. His fiction has been published in Tin House, Story magazine, The Virginia Quarterly Review and The Indiana Review. His criticism has appeared in the New York Times and the San Francisco Chronicle.A well-regarded speaker, panelist, and interviewer, Barbash has served as host for onstage events for The Commonwealth Club, Litquake, BookPassage, and the Lannan Foundation, and his interview subjects have included Kazuo Ishiguro, Brett Easton Ellis, Jonathan Franzen, Carlos Ruiz Zafon, James Ellroy, Ann Packer, Mary Gaitskill, and Chuck Palahniuk.[1]He taught at Stanford University, where he was a Stegner Fellow, and now teaches novel writing, short fiction, and nonfiction, at the California College of the Arts. Barbash has held fellowships from the MacDowell Colony, Yaddo, The James Michener Foundation, and the National Endowment for the Arts.[2] He lives in the San Francisco Bay Area.About the host:Holly Lynn Payne is the CEO and founder of Booxby , a startup helping authors succeed. Holly is also an internationally published novelist in eleven countries whose work has been translated into nine languages.

Il 19 giugno 2020 moriva Carlos Ruiz Zafon #radioala

In die dunklen Winkel der weißen Gesellschaft leuchtet Ann Petry in ihrem Roman "Country Place". Diese Kleinstadtgeschichte schrieb die afroamerikanische Autorin 1947, jetzt gibt es sie zum ersten Mal auf Deutsch. Fans von Carlos Ruiz Zafón werden in seinen nachgelassenen  Erzählungen einige Figuren aus den Romanen wieder erkennen - und natürlich die Gassen von Barcelona. Arno Camenisch erzählt in seinem persönlichsten Buch von einem "Schatten über dem Dorf"; leider nicht der beste Roman des Schweizer Autors. Außerdem sprechen wir über den Oetinger-Verlag, der Pippi Langstrumpf nach Deutschland holte und in diesem Jahr 75 wird, und wir feiern den 100. Geburtstag des Dichters H.C. Artmann mit einem neuen Hörbuch.  Ann Petry - Country Place Aus dem Amerikanischen von Pieke Biermann Nagel & Kimche Verlag, 304 Seiten, 24 Euro ISBN: 978-3312012237 Gespräch mit Christoph Schröder Carlos Ruiz Zafon - Der Friedhof der vergessenen Bücher Aus dem Spanischen von Lisa Grüneisen und Peter Schwaar S.

This week we break down Chapters 1-29 of The Shadow Rising. We talk toxic relationships, gambling addiction, and fascism. You know: the light stuff! Hannah pushes Laura to talk about how we are both theatre geeks, and Hannah has now entitled this book "What If We All Stayed Single."  We hope you enjoy this long-winded podcast, because breaking the books in half was a godsend even though it's still incredibly long for an episode!!!Media Mentions

Every voice has a story, so I hit the streets of Atlanta to capture the voices that I meet along the way. In this conversation, Hugo talked about his time in the military, lessons from his father, and the reflective beautify of a cemetery. This conversation reminds me of a quote from Carlos Ruiz Zafon, which says that “All true stories begin and end in a cemetery.”

Pour ce troisième épisode on a eu envie de rêver, de se laisser distraire de l'actualité pour le moins morose, de s'évader. Et pour cela, on a choisi comme thème : les livres qui parlent de livres. De tous temps, le livre, objet de fascination, a servi de cœur aux intrigues romanesques, dans une espèce de mise en abîme démultipliée entre l'auteur et son lecteur. Le choix fut difficile ! Vous entendrez ici des extraits des livres suivants : - Daniel Pennac, Comme un roman, Gallimard 1992 et Folio 1995 - Huit crimes parfaits de Peter Swanson, traduction CHristophe Cuq, Gallmeister, 2021 - L'ombre du vent de Carlos Ruiz Zafon, traduction François Maspero, Grasset 2004, Babel 2019 - Soixante-neuf tiroirs, Goran Petrovic, traduction Gojko Lukic, éditions du Rocher 2003 et Zulma 2021 - Le voleur d'histoires de Graham Carter, éditions Kimane, 2021 Mais on aurait pu parler aussi de Farenheit 451 (Ray Bradbury), Le nom de la Rose (Umberto Ecco), L'affaire Jane Eyre (Jasper Fford), Une histoire de la lecture (Alberto Manguel), La mer sans étoiles (Erin Morgenstern, Sonatine 2020), La Bibliothécaire (Gudule)... et tant d'autres ! Les livres sont sélectionnés (après une intense cogitation de toute l'équipe de la librairie Paroles !) et présentés par Marie-Eve Charbonnier, lus par Aurélie Rusterholtz (comédienne, www.lesgensduquatreavril.com). Musique prise de voix et mixage Volodia Descalzi (3ZK production). --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/librairie-paroles/message

Every book, every volume you see, has a soul. The soul of the person who wrote it and the soul of those who read it and lived it and dreamed with it. Every time a book changes hands, every time someone runs his eyes down its pages, its spirit grows and strengthens. - Carlos Ruiz Zafon

I avsnitt 79 dömer Åsa och Sissel boken efter titeln. Vad är att föredra, långa titlar som rullar fint av tungan, som “The Gentleman’s Guide to Vice and Virtue” av Mackenzi Lee eller enordstitlar fullpackade med betydelse, som "Hunger" av Alma Katsu? Oavsett om "Avlivningskliniken Tusenskönan" av Martina Montelius är en lång eller kort titel vill Åsa rekommendera den till alla som suktar efter riktigt svart humor.Sissel kan inte helt bestämma sig för om den relationsdriva pusseldeckaren "Nyårsfesten" av Lucey Foley har bäst klang i översättning eller i sin originaltitel "The Hunting Party". Spännande är den oavsett! Och att "Vindens skugga" av Carlos Ruiz Zafon är en vacker titel, en modern klassiker och en efterlängtad ljudbok är klart som korvspad, men är den kanske en aningens överskattad?Hyllningskör blir det gällande "Gun. Love" av Jennifer Clement, "Vi kom över havet" av Julie Otsuka, "Andarnas hus" av Isabel Allende och en hel massa andra titlar. Månadens Smash Hit är den nionde delen i Denise Rudbergs serie om Marianne Jidhoff - "Under nio nätter". På med lurarna och lyssna nu!

Dans cet épisode, on avait envie de vous parler d’un sujet qui nous occupe beaucoup: que e passe t-il quand on n'est pas sûr que ce qu’on fait, c’est vraiment ce qu’on veut faire. Avec Rachel, ça nous arrive souvent de nous remettre en question. Pourquoi? Parce qu’il y a une différence entre ce qu’on sait faire et ce qu’on veut faire.On explique ce qu'on fait dans la vie et comment on est arrivé à le faire. Et puis on se questionne sur ce qu'on aimerait vraiment faire et ce qui nous empêche de le faire. Références Le livre « L'ombre du vent » de Carlos Ruiz Zafon

Kaytee and Meredith are excited for a new year and some new bookish recommendations! As always, we start out with a “bookish moment of the week” from each host. Some fame-treatment and bonus reading time. Next, we discuss our current reads for the week. We’ve got five-star books and strong opinions and all the things you love in this segment this week, so it’s a fun one! We are skipping our Slow But Steady check-in this week, but be sure to chime in with your picks on Instagram or Facebook for this challenge! For our deep dive, we are throwing some serious side-eye at the Goodreads Best Books of 2019 lists and the ways these collections are put together. We have STRONG opinions about the winners for a number of these categories, but it’s not all negative. We’ll also share our picks for “best lists that actually reflect good 2019 reading” with you. Finally, this week, we are Pressing Books into Your Hands: we’re trying something a little different with a “guest press” this week, and including a category of book that has never shown up on the press list before. As per usual, time-stamped show notes are below with references to every book and resource we mentioned in this episode.

Meredith and Kaytee are back in your earbuds for a show that ended up having heavier subject matter than we'd expected. You’ll hear a “bookish moment of the week” from each of us (and a surprise vocal appearance by Meredith's Boston Terrier, Cooper - oops!) and we'll go over a few of the books we’ve finished reading lately. Then we’ll chat about what’s next up on the TBR pile. This episode includes an accidental foray into non-fiction books, because we have a lot of words about them this week! Next, we both discuss the ways we keep track of our reading: spreadsheets, journals, and apps. We finish up with A Book (yep, capitalized) that we’d like to put into every reader’s hands: something that has consistently ranked on our favorites list or been well-beloved by the people in our lives that we’ve convinced to read it. Perhaps it will become one of your favorites as well.   Time-stamped show notes are below with references to every book we mentioned in this episode.

[01:20] – Introduction to Hal Fulton Hal is the author of the Ruby Way, which was one of the books that Charles picked up when he started programming in Ruby. It’s still being published and still up to date. Hal still loves computers and programming but he admitted that he can’t keep up with it anymore. [03:50] – How did you get into programming? Hal didn’t really have the opportunity to get into programming at a young age. So, the first chance he had was when he just turned 17, he went to a summer program, which was a 6-week program at a college. It was dealing with Genetics and Population Genetics. He had lab work and learned some mathematical models. He also learned BASIC and a couple of primitive microcomputers with different versions of BASIC. His first BASIC programs were the hello world and followed by Population Genetics. [06:20] – How did you get into Ruby? Hal went to college and majored in Physics. But he was taking Computer Science courses along the way. He dropped Thermodynamics and made a C in Differential Equations. Then, he had to change his degree.

Jess and Trish assess "Shadow of the Wind" by Carlos Ruiz Zafon. They debate the unlikelihood of two female characters getting pregnant after having sex once and reasons why you would go to Planned Parenthood besides an abortion. Perhaps most importantly, they discuss how a threesome with two men is like petting two dogs at once. Next month's book is "On Beauty" by Zadie Smith. (Musical Credit: Spanish Mary by The New Basement Tapes)

Jess and Trish review "How to Get into the Twin Palms" by Karolina Waclawiak. They discuss burning down LA, the painful awkwardness of acting like a 15 year old when in your late twenties, and that you cannot realistically dye your hair red if you have just previously dyed in black. Next month they read "The Shadow of the Wind" by Carlos Ruiz Zafon as recommended by listener @FittenTrim on Twitter. (Musical Credit: 50 Pieces by Andrew Bird's Bowl of Fire)

Sign up for Bluehost and support the show. Thanks. Record your audio comment or networking tip here. Please pick up a copy of my book, New Business Networking: How to Effectively Grow Your Business Network Using Online and Offline Methods. We began by talking about Boomerang (now four years old). You can use it to send emails later, mark emails to reappear in your inbox later, and remind you to follow up if you don't hear back from the recipient. Boomerang came from personal pain. Alex was working at Analog Devices. He was responsible for making the Input Select button ten cents cheaper on HD TVs. He created Boomerang, because he had a hard time keeping up with emails from his team members. He began working on an automatic semantic search engine, but it was too geeky to work. Tim Ferris swears by the Email Game. Alex explains what it is and why you should try it. I love it too. Email is the only thing that's compatible with everybody's system. Make email good at what people use it for. How to follow up with everyone you met at a conference from The NextWeb. CardMunch and Evernote. CardShark business card scanning app by FullContact. Brad McCartey first wrote about Boomerang on the NextWeb. Why following up is crucial in networking. Baydin blog post about how they launched. How to identify journalists via social media. How Alex would start his career again. Alex grew up in Alabama, where networking occurred at the Wal-Mart checkout line. He moved to Boston for school, and then moved to Silicon Valley when they needed funding for Baydin. He attended a different tech networking event every night for two weeks while visiting Silicon Valley. You can do a lot in two weeks, if you focus on it. He created a list of people he wanted to meet. He used LinkedIn as the main tool for this. He also used StartUp Digest, a weekly email with local tech events. In Boston, tryGreenhorn Connect.

"Why can't a book stay a book?"

The Prisoner of Heaven

"...we create myths, we create religion, we create beliefs..."

Comedian Isy Suttie and opera singer and broadcaster Beverley Humphreys share their favourite books with Harriett Gilbert: 'The Comfort of Strangers' by Ian McEwan, ‘The Shadow of the Wind' by Carlos Ruiz Zafon and ‘Flowers for Algernon' by Daniel Keyes.

Part stunning literary thriller, part gothic novel, the book The Shadow of the Wind is a page-turning exploration of obsession in literature and love, and the places that obsession can lead. It is a potent mix of a coming-of-age novel and a tragic love story set in Barcelona's post-war years. Harriet Gilbert puts questions from the audience to the author Carlos Ruiz Zafon.

Zocalo Public Square

The Angel's Game (Doubleday)Spanish writer Carlos Ruiz Zafón has attracted an international audience with his series of metaphysical thrillers.

"I just write for people who like to read" Genre: Literary Fiction, Fantasy Fiction

Minor key life is the mournful echo of a hollowed-out gourd, bleached in the sun, hard and empty. Life should be lived in a major key, drenched in the colors of nature, quivering with energy, throbbing with purpose. Last week I showed you http://mondaymemo.wpengine.com/newsletters/how-to-choose-colors (how to extract liquid color pallettes) from famous paintings. This week I'll show you a similar technique using words. It's the one taught by Christopher J. Maddock* in http://www.amazon.com/Accidental-Magic-Wizards-Techniques-Pictures/dp/1885167547/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1239628729&sr=1-1 (Accidental Magic,) chapter 15, “How to Color Your Writing.” Master this technique and you'll wring vivid dictionaries from a single word. Here's Professor Maddock's instruction: “First, choose an emotion or feeling to communicate, such as nervous excitement. Think of some words or phrases you associate with that feeling: anxious, waiting, white-knuckled, hesitant, cold sweat. Now incorporate these into your writing: You step into your waiting car, failing to ward off the thought: ‘My first house.' The seatbelt clutching your shoulder: ‘My first house.' Engine hesitant, tires chirping, you drive white-knuckled through a cold sweat of rain toward a place you've been waiting to come home to your entire life.Voilà! Color your ads with emotions. Enliven them with words fat with association. Don't just paint pictures – give rides.” In the opening paragraph of today's memo I gave you a series of words I associate with minor key music. But rather than say the obvious, “sad, melancholy, and pale,” I went one level deeper and gave you my associations with those words: “mournful, hollowed-out, bleached in the sun.” Maddock's technique helps you to avoid clichés and surprise your audience with unexpected combinations and layers of meaning. Listeners and readers love it. I've often said to the students of https://wizardacademy.org/scripts/prodList.asp?idCategory=96 (writing at Wizard Academy,) “A willingness to write badly is the key to writing well.” When writing descriptions, the first words to pop into your head will be the ones you hear most often, the ones that are overused. Capture these words on paper, then think of what you associate with each of them. Don't use the obvious words. Use the associations. Don't worry that your audience won't understand. Write colorfully and you, too, might be nominated to become president of Chile. “Julian once told me that a story is a letter the author writes to himself, to tell himself things that he would be unable to discover otherwise.” – Carlos Ruiz Zafon, http://www.amazon.com/Shadow-Wind-Carlos-Ruiz-Zaf%C3%B3n/dp/0143034901/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1239628862&sr=1-1 (The Shadow of the Wind), p. 444  Pablo Neruda was never afraid that his audience wouldn't understand. That's what made his writing so colorful: “Anyone who doesn't read Cortázar is doomed. Not to read him is a grave invisible disease which in time can have terrible consequences. Something similar to a man who had never tasted peaches. He would be quietly getting sadder, noticeably paler, and probably little by little, he would lose his hair. I don't want those things to happen to me, and so I greedily devour all the fabrications, myths, contradictions, and mortal games of the great Julio Cortázar.” – Pablo Neruda, poet, nominated as a candidate for the Chilean presidency in 1970. You've tasted a peach, haven't you? Write colorfully. If you don't, you'll lose your hair. Roy H. Williams

The Shadow of the Wind (Penguin)Spaniard Carlos Ruiz Zafón discusses the way he utilizes "modern narrative technologies" to re-tool the traditional novel and create a work filled with history, terror and love--but also with uncertainty, deconstruction and despair.
