Nadeszła pora podsumowań i my też chcemy się z Wami podzielić, jak wyglądał u nas rok 2020 z czytelniczego punktu widzenia. Zamiast jednak przedstawiać Wam najlepsze książki zeszłego roku, zastanawiamy się, po jakie gatunki sięgałyśmy najczęściej, przygotowałyśmy sobie nawet wykresy w Excelu, a wszystko po to, by dowiedzieć się, u kogo królowały biografie i wspomnienia, która z nas podróżowała literacko, co w literaturze zaczęło nas interesować i czyje perspektywy wydawały nam się najciekawsze. Jest też mowa o najgorszych książkach, a to nie zdarza się często, bo trochę szkoda nam już czasu na słabe lektury. Kolejna taka okazja, by ponarzekać na to, co złe, trafi się pewnie dopiero znów za rok, więc tym bardziej zapraszamy do słuchania! Książki, które wspominamy w podkaście, to: Jenny Nordberg, „Chłopczyce z Kabulu”, tłum. Justyn Hunia, wydawnictwo Czarne; Kerry Danes, „Oko w oko ze złem”, tłum. Agnieszka Walulik, wydawnictwo Otwarte; Amanda Curtin, „The Sinkings”, UWA Publishing; Zbigniew Rokita, „Kajś”, wydawnictwo Czarne; Maria Stiepanowa, „Pamięci pamięci” tłum. Agnieszka Sowińska, wydawnictwo Prószyński i S-ka; Durga Chew-Bose, „Too much and not in the mood”, Farrar, Straus and Giroux; Lola Olufemi, „Feminism, Interrupted”, Pluto Books; Sarah M.

Labelled by Vulture as one of the most exciting debuts of 2017, and by Bustle as one of the most anticipated feminist releases of the year – alongside work by Rebecca Solnit and Roxane Gay – Durga Chew-Bose’s debut collection of self-referential essays Too Much and Not the Mood has established her as a member of the millennial intelligentsia. Taking its title from a Virginia Woolf diary entry, Chew-Bose’s lyrical collection offer insights into art, literature, pop-culture, and what it means to be a Bengali-Canadian.

This week on “Lady Problems,” the MTV News podcast dedicated to pop culture’s treatment of women, MTV News' style editor Haley Mlotek joins Rachel Handler to interview writer Durga Chew-Bose. Durga is the author of the new essay collection Too Much and Not The Mood, and also Haley's good friend — in fact, Haley edited three of the essays that appear in the book, so we go deep on those. We talk to Durga about the strange and bittersweet experience of living alone for the first time, the blissful relief of hiding in a movie theater during the oppressive New York summer, and what it sounds like to fall off a bridge. Later, Durga schools us all about Polly Platt, one of the most influential producers and production designers and screenwriters of the 1970s and 1980s who — by nature of being a woman in '70s Hollywood — was often overshadowed by the men she worked with.
