Today, I've got a bit of a confession to make – I've started watching My Lady Jane on Amazon Prime and I'm loving it. From social media comments, I gather that as a historian, I'm meant to hate it, but nope, I love it! Based on the book by Cynthia Hand, Brodi Ashton, and Jodi Meadows, it's a fantasy with only a passing resemblance to actual history. Think The Princess Bride with shape-shifters and regicidal maniacs. It's laugh-out-loud funny, packed with adventure, and has an amazing cast. So, put history aside and just have fun with it. If it gets people googling Lady Jane Grey, then that's brilliant. Now, excuse me, episode 5 is waiting! #MyLadyJane #TudorHistory #AmazonPrime #HistoricalFantasy #FunRomp

In aflevering 10 van Liefteratuur spreek ik met feelgoodauteur Karin Quint over historische feelgood. Karin is auteur van de Landgoed Rosaville-serie en weet als geen ander hoe je in het verleden duikt.We hebben het over historische feelgood in het algemeen, maar ook over hoe je erachter komt wat voor bloemen er in november 1903 te koop waren, waarom Karin zo verknocht is aan dit genre én hoe Landgoed Rosaville is ontstaan.En natúúrlijk hebben we het over de moeder aller feelgood: Jane Austen. Hoe kan het dat haar boeken ruim 200 jaar na haar dood nog steeds gelezen worden? En als je zelf een van haar boeken wilt lezen, met welke moet je dan beginnen? Als echte Jane Austen-kenner (oftewel 'Janeite') heeft Karin daar het antwoord op.Boeken die in deze aflevering worden genoemd en/of besproken:• Alles van Karin Quint, met in het bijzonder het derde deel van de Landgoed Rosaville-serie: De IJskelder• De boeken van Jane Austen• De nieuwe hervertelling van Trots en Vooroordeel, door Lisette Jonkman (met illustraties van Sophie Pluim)• Venetia van Georgette Heyer• Just like you van Nick Hornby (in het Nederlands te lezen als Op het eerste gezicht)

Catherine, Called Birdy has been a surprise hit with our listeners and book club community, and today Chelsey and Sara share their experience with Karen Cushman's award-winning work of middle grade historical fiction. We share what we remember about the book from childhood, why we connected with it more now, and why a book about a girl trying to avoid marriage in the 13th-century feels so relevant today. We also go down a couple of rabbit holes of our own this episode, including a discussion about how we teach and model gender for children and the role of literature in that development.  Together, we're learning to be better, more critical and thorough readers of classic and contemporary literature. We love discussing books and reading with all of you and hope you'll join our group of nerdy readers at patreon.com/novelpairings. Annual subscriptions are now available at a discounted price.  Pairings Timestamp: 42:00 . . . . Books mentioned: Margaret the First by Danielle Dutton Doomsday Book by Connie Willis Matrix by Lauren Groff My Lady Jane, My Plain Jane, My Contrary Mary, My Imaginary Mary by Cynthia Hand,  Brodi Ashton, and Jodi Meadows  Also mentioned: Dear America, The Royal Diaries, and American Girl Dolls  The Men–and the Boys–are Not Alright

Indy talks about Ethiopian Jazz pioneer Mulatu Astatke, Samantha's latest beach read is With You All the Way by Cynthia Hand, and then we prepare to watch the (maybe) greatest film of all time: Citizen Kane! Plus; Scarface, books for 16 year olds, The Sixth Sense spoilers, bunk, Ed Wood, and more! Mulatu Astatke (ሙላቱ አስታጥቄ, born 19 December 1943) is an Ethiopian musician and arranger considered as the father of "Ethio-jazz". Born in Jimma, Mulatu was musically trained in London, New York City, and Boston where he combined his jazz and Latin music interests with traditional Ethiopian music. Mulatu led his band while playing vibraphone and conga drums—instruments that he introduced into Ethiopian popular music—as well as other percussion instruments, keyboards, and organs. His albums focus primarily on instrumental music, and Mulatu appears on all three known albums of instrumentals that were released during the Ethiopian Golden Age in 1970s.
