Monica Pareschi"Inverness"Polidoro Editorewww.alessandropolidoroeditore.itC'è, nell'incontro con l'altro, una paura antica, uno spavento continuamente ricercato e fuggito. Incontri sbagliati, mancati. Incontri fatali, o intravisti.Baci velenosi. Bambine dai difetti repellenti. Addii dati in maniera fredda e intollerabile. Amori ricambiati in parte e scambiati per eterne maledizioni scolastiche.Monica Pareschi torna alla narrativa dopo il suo esordio di circa 10 anni fa. Un'opera contundente, corrosiva – ricorda la malizia fantastica di Leonora Carrington e il film Stoker di Park chan-Wook – fondata sui sentimenti più nascosti, sulle piccolezze mostruose, vitree, che tutti noi coviamo mentre amiamo e mentre odiamo.Monica Pareschi è autrice di È di vetro quest'aria, Italic Pequod, 2014.

Nuestra colaboradora Slawka Grabowska conversa, en el mes del Día de la Mujer, sobre diversas escritoras ganadoras del Premio Nobel de Literatura. Hasta la fecha solo 18 mujeres han sido premiadas con este galardón y hoy descubrimos tres de ellas: Doris Lessing, Svetlana Alexievich y Olga Tokarczuk....

Nach längerer Pause kehrt Fempire nun zurück. Mit von der Partie beim Wiedereinstieg sind nicht nur die zwei neuen Producerinnen Asya und Kathrin, die Rasha beim Podcast im Hintergrund unterstützen, sondern als erste Gästin der zweiten Staffel auch die wunderbare Schriftstellerin Asal Dardan. Nach ihrem 2021 veröffentlichten und hochgelobten Essayband "Betrachtungen einer Barbarin", erschien diese Woche mit "Traumaland: Eine Spurensuche in deutscher Vergangenheit und Gegenwart" ihr zweites Buch - schon jetzt eine absolute Pflichtlektüre - in dem Asal über die Erinnerungskultur in Deutschland, den Zusammenhang zwischen Struktur und rassistischer Gewalt, Verantwortung und Aufarbeitung nachdenkt. Mitgebracht hat Asal die britische Autorin Jenny Diski (1947-2016), Verfasserin zahlreicher Essays, Romane, Kurzgeschichten und Reisetagebücher. Diski ist vor allem in Großbritannien für ihr umfangreiches und genreübergreifendes Werk bekannt, aber auch für ihre Beziehung zur Literaturnobelpreisträgerin Doris Lessing. Lessing nahm Diski als Teenagerin in ihrem Haushalt auf und blieb eine Figur an die sich Diski nicht ohne Ambivalenz und Reibung in ihrer literarischen Arbeit erinnert. Jenny Diski, ihr Schreiben und ihre Geschichte sind in Deutschland bisher leider nahezu unbekannt. Neben dem komplexen Verhältnis zwischen Diski und Lessing, Mutterschaft & Autorinnenschaft und der Begrenztheit unserer Vorstellungen von Beziehungen, unterhalten sich Rasha und Asal über verrückt-Werden als womöglich einzig richtige Reaktion auf das Zeitgeschehen, Solidarität und die Haltung des essayistischen Ichs.

Doris Lessing addressed Canadian audiences with her CBC Massey Lectures in 1985, warning warn us against groupthink and what she called the intellectual “prisons we choose to live inside." Now, a response from the present day: Professor Miglena Todorova reflects on Lessing's message and puts it into the context of today's politics.

What happens when a novelist wants “nonsense and joy” but his characters are destined for a Central European sanatorium? How does the abecedarian form (i.e. organized not chronologically or sequentially but alphabetically) insist on order, yet also embrace absurdity? Here to ponder such questions with host John Plotz are University of Wisconsin–Madison's Sunny Yudkoff (last heard on ND speaking with Sheila Heti) and Adam Ehrlich Sachs, author of Inherited Disorders, The Organs of Sense, and the recently published Gretel and the Great War. Sachs has fallen under the spell of late Habsburg Vienna, where the polymath Ludwig Wittgenstein struggled to make sense of Boltzmann's physics, Arnold Schoenberg read the acerbic journalist Karl Kraus, and everyone, Sachs suspects, was reading Grimms' Fairy Tales, searching for the feeling of inevitability only narrative closure can provide. Beneath his OULIPO-like attachment to arbitrary orders and word-games, though, Sachs admits to a desire for chaos.

The novelist, biographer and critic Dame Margaret Drabble published her debut novel in 1963. She quickly went on to become a bestselling and critically acclaimed chronicler of the lives of modern women in a series of contemporary realist stories, often based on her own life and experiences. Her 19 novels include The Millstone, The Waterfall, The Ice Age and The Radiant Way, and her non-fiction includes books on Thomas Hardy, William Wordsworth and Arnold Bennett. She has also edited the Oxford Companion to English Literature. Dame Margaret tells John Wilson about her upbringing in Sheffield and how winning a scholarship to Newnham College, Cambridge, shaped her literary tastes. It was there that she heard the lectures of the academic F R Leavis and first discovered contemporary novels by Angus Wilson and Saul Bellow. She became an actress and worked for the Royal Shakespeare Company before her first novel, A Summer Birdcage, the story of the relationship between two sisters, was published in 1963. She recalls how her literary career began in the wings of the RSC and talks candidly about her often strained relationship with her older sister, the late novelist A S Byatt. Dame Margaret also discusses the influence of her friend, the Nobel Prize-winning author Doris Lessing.Producer: Edwina Pitman

"Het grote geheim dat alle oude mensen delen is dat je gedurende je zeventig, tachtig jaar eigenlijk niet verandert. Je lichaam verandert, maar jij verandert niet.

Pankaj Mishra joins Adam Shatz to discuss The Golden Notebook, Doris Lessing's formally brilliant and startlingly frank 1962 novel. In her portrait of ‘free women' – unmarried, creatively ambitious, politically engaged – Lessing wrestles with the breakdown of Stalinism, settler colonialism and traditional gender roles. Pankaj and Adam explore the lived experiences that shaped the novel, its feminist reception and why Pankaj considers it to be one of the best representations of ‘the strange uncapturable sensation of living from day to day.'This is an extract from the episode.

¿Alguna vez te has preguntado el origen de los gatos? Del Gato Doméstico se originan todas las razas, el que tiene pelo, el que no, el que tiene cola, el sin cola, el naranja, los rayados, amarillos, negros, atigrados; todos. El Dr. Miguel Ángel Sierra, Presidente de la Federación Felina Mexicana, cuenta acerca de cuidados, alimentación y peculiaridades de los felinos.

How did superpower competition and the cold war affect writers in the decolonizing world? In the book The Aesthetic Cold War, Peter Kalliney explores the various ways that rival states used cultural diplomacy and the political police to influence writers. In response, many writers from Africa, Asia, and the Caribbean—such as Chinua Achebe, Mulk Raj Anand, Eileen Chang, C.L.R. James, Alex La Guma, Doris Lessing, Ngũgĩ wa Thiong'o, and Wole Soyinka —carved out a vibrant conceptual space of aesthetic nonalignment, imagining a different and freer future for their work. With us today is the book's author Peter J. Kalliney. Dr. Kalliney is Professor of  English at the University of Kentucky. His books include Cities of Affluence and Anger, Commonwealth of Letters, and Modernism in a Global Context.Recommended Reading:Peter J.

Fiction is an ancient virtual reality technology that specializes in simulating human problems.“Like a flight simulator, fiction projects us into intense simulations of problems that run parallel to those we face in reality. And like a flight simulator, the main virtue of fiction is that we have a rich experience and don't die at the end.”That was Jonathan Gottschall. This is the stunningly brilliant Chris Torbay.“My name is Michelle, and I work for Chapman Insurance. I work in the call center answering the phone. ‘What kind of job is that?' you're thinking. Well, when it's your call, maybe I make a difference for you. Maybe you were dreading another one of those stupid corporate phone things with their ‘press one' and ‘press two' and ‘press six if a palm tree just fell on your doghouse,'… but you get to talk to a person, and you get to tell a real person how worried you are. And I get it because I'm a real person and I do this for a living! And I can see your policy and answer your questions because I know how confusing this can be, and when you hang up, you feel like someone with a heart and a soul, and a pretty awesome understanding of insurance has had the basic human decency to answer the phone and talk to you like a person instead of making you press six!!!!! My name is Michelle!!!! I work with Chapman, and your insurance call matters to me!!!!”[MALE VOICE] Visit cigFlorida.com© Chris Torbay 2023Jonathan Gottschall goes on to say,“Fiction seems to be more effective at changing beliefs than nonfiction, which is designed to persuade through argument and evidence. Studies show that when we read nonfiction, we read with our shields up. We are critical and skeptical. But when we are absorbed in a story, we drop our intellectual guard.”“There is no doubt fiction makes a better job of the truth.”– Doris Lessing, winner of the 2007 Nobel Prize in Literature“Escapist fantasies are laughably superficial. Attaining them isn't what we really want. If we did, they'd no doubt bore or disappoint us. We don't want the fantasy. We want to fantasize.”– Evan Puschak, Escape into Meaning, p.109“The one thing emphasized in any creative writing course is ‘write what you know,' and that automatically drives a wooden stake through the heart of imagination. If they really understood the mysterious process of creating fiction, they would say, ‘You can write about anything you can imagine.'”– Tom Robbins“Fantasy, abandoned by reason, produces impossible monsters; united with it, she is the mother of the arts and the origin of marvels.”– Francisco GoyaBut how does a person become creative?“When you notice a commonality between two or more things, you say, ‘Oh there's something there.' And now we make what's called a charm bracelet: You take these things and you find a way to associate them. So that's the process: I'm thinking about this [one] thing and then remember this [other] thing, and then you go, ‘Oh there's something there — let me connect those 2 things.”– Jerry SeinfeldBrandon Sanderson agrees with Jerry Seinfeld:“The way that human creativity works is by combination. That's what we're really good at. We don't come up with a completely new creature. We put a horn on a horse and go, ‘Look at that, that's cool.' That's how we create on a fundamental level.”And Steve Jobs agreed with both Seinfeld and Sanderson:“Creativity equals connecting previously...

How do we, as readers, detect new and emerging talent in writing? We can look at book sales or book prizes but young writers don't necessarily gain huge commercial success or awards early on in their careers. One list that has proved almost oracular in the last 40 years has been established by the venerable literary magazine Granta and that's the list of Best Young British Novelists. My guest today, Olivia Sudjic, is a young British writer, who was included on the latest lists published this year. She has now published two novels as well as an extended essay on the art & process of writing. Her first novel, “Sympathy” was published in 2017 and is a tale of obsession & connection in our ever-creeping technological age. This was followed by “Exposure”, an essay published in 2018, which allowed her to look back and reflect on this momentous step of writing and how that had impacted her. It was a great look into the mindset, approach and perception of a young female writer in today's world. This was then followed by another novel, “Asylum Road” in 2021, about the voyages of a young woman in the UK who is in a relationship on the brink. I was excited to speak to Olivia to learn about her journey as a writer, her inspirations, her voice and of course her recommendations. Books mentioned throughout the episode: Favourite book I've never heard of: “Confessions of a Justified Sinner”, by James Hogg. (1824) The best book Olivia read in the last 12 months: “My Phantoms” by Gwendoline Riley (2021) The book that she's embarrassed not to have read: “The Golden Notebook” by Doris Lessing (1962) The book that she would take to a desert island: “Super-Infinite” by Katherine Rundell (2022) The book that changed her mind: “The End of the Story” by Lydia Davis (1995) Find Olivia: Instagram: @olivia.sudjic Buy Asylum Road: https://amzn.eu/d/hiAKTJI Follow me ⁠⁠⁠@litwithcharles⁠⁠⁠ for more book reviews and recommendations!

The Nobel Prize in Literature has been awarded annually since 1901 to an author from any country who has, in the words of the will of Swedish industrialist Alfred Nobel, “In the field of literature produced the most outstanding work in an idealistic direction.” Michael Silverblatt spoke with eight Nobel Prize laureates. In part 1 of the Laureates show, we heard from four of them. In this second part, we'll be hearing excerpts from: Kazuo Ishiguro, Mario Vargas Llosa, Doris Lessing, Czesław Miłosz, and Robert Hass speaking about Milosz.

In this week's mini, we take a look at British writer Jenny Diski and her relationship with famed novelist Doris Lessing, who took a teenaged Jenny into her home. Though Lessing never adopted Diski, they had a long and at times awkward pseudo-familial relationship that Diski explored in her writing. Links: Why Didn't You Just Do What You Were Told? by Jenny DiskiLost Ladies of Lit with Hilma WolitzerSkating to Antarctica  by Jenny Diski The Golden Notebook by Doris LessingMemoirs of a Survivor by Doris LessingJenny Diski in The London Review of BooksFor episodes and show notes, visit: LostLadiesofLit.com Follow us on instagram @lostladiesoflit.

In the popular imagination MI5, or the Security Service, is know chiefly as the branch of the British state responsible for chasing down those who pose a threat to the country's national security--from Nazi fifth columnists during the Second World War, to Soviet spies during the Cold War and today's domestic extremists.  Yet in Red List: MI5 and British Intellectuals in the Twentieth Century (Verso, 2022), David Caute argues in this radical and revelatory history of the Security Service in the twentieth century, suspicion often fell on those who posed no threat to national security. Instead, this 'other history' of MI5, ignored in official accounts, was often as not fuelled by the political prejudices of MI5's personnel, and involved a huge programme of surveillance against anyone who dared question the status quo. Caute, a prominent historian and expert on the history of the Cold War, tells the story of the massive state operation to track the activities of a range of journalists, academics, scientists, filmmakers, writers and others who, during the twentieth century, the Security Service perceived as a threat to the national interest. Those who were tracked include such prominent figures as Kingsley Amis, George Orwell, Doris Lessing, John Berger, Benjamin Britten, Eric Hobsbawm, Michael Foot, Harriet Harman, and others. Morteza Hajizadeh is a Ph.D. graduate in English from the University of Auckland in New Zealand.

How did superpower competition and the cold war affect writers in the decolonizing world? In The Aesthetic Cold War: Decolonization and Global Literature (Princeton UP, 2022), Peter Kalliney explores the various ways that rival states used cultural diplomacy and the political police to influence writers. In response, many writers from Africa, Asia, and the Caribbean—such as Chinua Achebe, Mulk Raj Anand, Eileen Chang, C.L.R. James, Alex La Guma, Doris Lessing, Ngũgĩ wa Thiong'o, and Wole Soyinka—carved out a vibrant conceptual space of aesthetic nonalignment, imagining a different and freer future for their work. Kalliney looks at how the United States and the Soviet Union, in an effort to court writers, funded international conferences, arts centers, book and magazine publishing, literary prizes, and radio programming. International spy networks, however, subjected these same writers to surveillance and intimidation by tracking their movements, tapping their phones, reading their mail, and censoring or banning their work. Writers from the global south also suffered travel restrictions, deportations, imprisonment, and even death at the hands of government agents. Although conventional wisdom suggests that cold war pressures stunted the development of postcolonial literature, Kalliney's extensive archival research shows that evenly balanced superpower competition allowed savvy writers to accept patronage without pledging loyalty to specific political blocs. Likewise, writers exploited rivalries and the emerging discourse of human rights to contest the attentions of the political police. A revisionist account of superpower involvement in literature, The Aesthetic Cold War considers how politics shaped literary production in the twentieth century. Learn more about your ad choices.

Modernist literature at the end of the British empire challenges conventional notions of homeland, heritage, and community.The waning British empire left behind an abundance of material relics and an inventory of feelings not easily relinquished.  In The Obsolete Empire: Untimely Belonging in Twentieth-Century British Literature (Johns Hopkins UP, 2021), Philip Tsang brings together an unusual constellation of writers—Henry James, James Joyce, Doris Lessing, and V. S. Naipaul—to trace an aesthetics of frustrated attachment that emerged in the wake of imperial decline. Caught between an expansive Britishness and an exclusive Englishness, these writers explored what it meant to belong to an empire that did not belong to them.Thanks to their voracious reading of English fiction and poetry in their formative years, all of these writers experienced a richly textured world with which they deeply identified but from which they felt excluded. The literary England they imagined, frozen in time and out of place with the realities of imperial decline, in turn figures in their writings as a repository of unconsummated attachments, contradictory desires, and belated exchanges. Their works arrest the linear progression from colonial to postcolonial, from empire to nation, and from subject to citizen. Drawing on a rich body of scholarship on affect and temporality, Tsang demonstrates how the British empire endures as a structure of desire that outlived its political lifespan. By showing how literary reading sets in motion a tense interplay of intimacy and exclusion, Tsang investigates a unique mode of belonging arising from the predicament of being conscripted into a global empire but not desired as its proper citizen. Ultimately, The Obsolete Empire asks: What does it mean to be inside or outside any given culture? How do large-scale geopolitical changes play out at the level of cultural attachment and political belonging? How does literary reading establish or unsettle narratives of who we are? These questions preoccupied writers across Britain's former empire and continue to resonate today. Dr. Philip Tsang is Assistant Professor at Colorado State University.  Gargi Binju is a researcher at the University of Tübingen.  Learn more about your ad choices.
