“Lots of ambitious books announce themselves,” writes Lauren Christensen in The New York Times Book Review of podcast guest Betsy Lerner's debut novel Shred Sisters. “This one doesn't need to.” High praise for a first-time novelist, but that's not surprising considering Betsy's long and distinguished career as an editor and literary agent. A born storyteller (and, story-sharer), Betsy has helped to shape our literary landscape, as the guiding hand behind such cultural touchstones as Patti Smith's Just Kids and Elizabeth Wurtzel's Prozac Nation. She's also earned her As Told To stripes as the co-author of The New York Times best-selling Visual Thinking, written in collaboration with Temple Grandin, in addition to writing several non-fiction books of her own, including the memoir The Bridge Ladies, and the writing guidebook The Forest for the Trees. A recovering poet, Betsy received an MFA in poetry from Columbia University, where she was selected as one of PEN's Emerging Writers, before trading her pen for a red pencil and embarking on a heralded career as an editor. With the publication of her first novel, longlisted prior to publication for the Center for Fiction First Novel Prize, Betsy kick-starts an exciting new chapter in her writing life, offering a rich, bittersweet tale of sisterhood, mental health, love and loss, and reminding us that it's never too late to become the artist you were always meant to be.

This is a free preview of a paid episode. To hear more, visit wisdomofcrowds.liveChristine and Damir discuss two personal essays from New York magazine that went viral last week. The first deals with divorce, the second with getting scammed. A flabbergasted Damir can't believe they were published; he wonders if anyone outside New York would care to read them. Christine finds ironic wisdom buried in both essays. The conversation ends on a high note, with Christine explaining how one of the essays breaks new ground in the media monoculture. Required Reading:* Emily Gould, “The Lure of Divorce,” New York magazine.* Charlotte Cowls, “The Day I Put $50,000 in a Shoe Box and Handed It to a Stranger,” New York magazine. * Christine's three theories about the above essays.* Elizabeth Wurtzel, Prozac Nation.* Kristen Roupenian, “Cat Person”.* Ross Douthat, The Decadent Society.
Welcome to part one of our short series on R.E.M. So, as fans of the show know, the general thrust of Unsung is that each week we choose a record by a band. That record is either a classic by an unsung artist, or an unsung classic by a well known (and we take a fairly liberal view on what "well known" actually means) artist. The catalyst for this series is that Chris has chosen the album New Adventures in Hi-Fi by R.E.M. as an unsung classic. But before we even get to the album (coming next week in part four) we need to do our due diligence and take a quick glance over their entire discography. And folks, for R.E.M., it's a big ol discography. With fifteen albums, there's a lot to wade through, which is why this is a series in four parts, as opposed to one episode. But before we dive into the discography, we need to give context. So in episode one Chris talks about his affection for R.E.M., why he picked New Adventures in Hi-Fi, and we do a little bit of background on the band's pre-history. We also talk about our overall impressions of the band, what it was like to get to grips with the back catalogue. We also talk about Elizabeth Wurtzel's 1993 article "R.E.M. for The People", a key text for this series. In the next episode (dropping today RIGHT after this one) we dive into their discography. Stay tuned!
Reviewing Zadie Smith's The Fraud for the latest issue of Harper's Magazine, Adam Kirsch takes stock of Generation X as a literary phenomenon. He finds “Gen X lit” to be composed of two distinct waves, between which Smith is caught. The younger wave, including writers Ben Lerner, Teju Cole, Sheila Heti, and Tao Lin, has formed its ideas about art, culture, and society partly in opposition to predecessors like David Foster Wallace, Elizabeth Wurtzel, and Dave Eggers—who claimed a great moral power for art—and partly in response to the younger millennials, who question whether art has any value at all. Kirsch is joined in this episode by Harper's deputy editor Jon Baskin to discuss how Smith's historical fiction operates within this literary lineage, why autofiction came to succeed the confessional memoirs of the Nineties, and what the novel form can do for us.

H. Smith's essay in the September issue of Harper's: https://harpers.org/archive/2023/09/my-generation/ 6:01: “Instead of rushing up to the reader and giving them a bear hug and saying, ‘This is who I am, please love me,' which I think is a sense that I often get from David Foster Wallace, these younger writers are a lot more complex and ironic and elusive.” 8:46: “Autofiction makes it possible to emphasize the moral ambiguities that memoir has to apologize for or hide.” 14:21: “Smith is writing about things that have come up in her fiction since the beginning—things like: Is it my job to be politically virtuous as a writer? Or am I supposed to be telling some other kind of truth? Is there some sort of artistic mission that is somehow removed from political virtue?” 18:44: “If you step back and make it an alternative reality—in this case, something in the past—you can make more of an effort to see all the way around the subject. And that's something that Smith does very well in The Fraud.” 31:06: “So much of it is about this sort of solidness and resistance to getting involved in things … As we get older and assume different roles in life, something of that remains, the desire to be a sort of Bartleby and say no rather than yes—maybe that's what Gen X will be remembered for.”

Chris is joined by Jane, a returning guest and "armchair trend forecaster," to talk about how discussion of mental illness in women is often limited to a glamorized version afflicting the young, attractive, and culturally elite. They look at writers such as Cat Marnell, Elizabeth Wurtzel, and Stephanie Foo, and also ask if this is a predominantly white female narrative. If so, what does it mean when some women of color want in on it? Jane's LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/song-jane This is Part 1 of this episode. Part 2 is available to Patreon supporters.

Feedback Dare to Disappoint: Growing Up in Turkey by Özge Samanci (rec'd by Jan) Notes on a Foreign Country: An American Abroad in a Post-American World by Suzy Hansen (rec'd by Sibyl) Anthony Horowitz's the Susan Ryeland series (first book: Magpie Murders) and the Hawthorne and Horowitz Mysteries (first book: The Word is Murder) (rec'd by Ann) Questions 1. My [niece] is 23 and just informed my sister, brother-in-law, and the family that [she] is transgender. (So she is now my niece). She is starting the process of taking hormones and the like. My sister was shocked and did not see it coming. She is very liberal and is coming around to the idea. I was hoping for book recommendations that would help us (especially my sister) understand what my niece has felt like being in the wrong body. In a quick search I found books involving young kids. I was hoping for books centered more on coming out as trans as a 20-something. I'm thinking maybe a biography or non-fiction. Also my whole family loves fantasy so if there's a book in that genre maybe we could read it together. -Klista 2. Love the show! I'm looking for recommendations to read aloud to my 7 1/2 year old boy/girl twins that I will enjoy too. We love well-written, funny middle grade books – preferably with animal characters. They are still sensitive readers – we avoid books with any violence and try to avoid orphaned children or those with not great parents. We're not scared of long books or intricate language. Books we've loved (and read over and over) include: The True Blue Scouts of Sugarman Swamp The Very Very Far North & it's sequel Winnie the Pooh Collected Stories Books we've liked a lot: Flora & Ulysses Ruby Lu Brave & True Gooseberry Park Books that I liked but they didn't: Wild Robot Books they love but I'm not as into: Humphrey series Mrs Piggle Wiggle & Missy Piggle Wiggle We've read most books by Roald Dahl & most age appropriate ones by Kate DiCamillo. They are still too nervous to start Harry Potter. Thanks! -Marisa 3. Hi Jenn and Amanda! I'm finally coming back to Get Booked now that I can read again! (baby girl took all my free time hihi) In the last couple of months, I realised that I love atmospheric books, even if the plot is weak or nonexistent. Some other books I loved are Erin Morgenstern books (both!), The Invisible Life of Addie Larue and Piranesi. Do you have other recommendations like it? If it's mixed with greek mythology it's even better. Thanks a lot! PS: love from Canada. -Emilie 4. I'd love recommendations for books set in or about Bogota, Colombia. Preferably, something like Chanel Cleeton's books about Cuba that help to understand the history and current impacts or nonfiction about the history. Any genre is fine! -Tracey 5. Two of my favorite books/series I read this year have been “A Deadly Education” by Naomi Novik and “The Murderbot Diaries” by Martha Wells. On the surface they might seem kind of different, but they both had such a great narrative voice, with the right amount of sarcasm/snark/humor, and a completely lovable main character, and they left me feeling warm and fuzzy inside. Also, my favorite genres are Fantasy and Sci Fi, so these were perfect. I'm so sad I have to wait until more comes out from these authors. Please tell me what I can read while I'm waiting! Thank you! -Lauren 6. I recently read Lost Roses and seriously loved A Gentleman in Moscow before that. I've also just marathoned The Last Csars on Netflix — and I haven't had my fill! Can you recommend some historical fiction set in late 19th, early 20th century Russia that will help me get my next Russian nobility fix? Thank you! -Emily 7. Hello there – Trigger Warning: So this is a tough one since it deals with a sensitive topic – suicide. I'm looking for a book (fiction or non-fiction I suppose, YA or Adult) that deals with how to cope when a friend/family member attempts suicide BUT does not succeed/commit. I find that most books about suicide are dealing with the aftermath of someone's death, but what happens if they didn't die? No one ever seems to talk about that. A recommendation for this would be very helpful, as this past year has been rough and I'd like someone else's perspective of coping with this kind of situation. Sorry this one is a bit of a downer, but important given the need for mental health awareness. Thank you. -Sam Books Discussed Fairest by Meredith Talusan (tw: racism) Sorted by Jackson Bird Bright Lines by Tanwi Nandini Islam The One and Only Ivan by Katherine Applegate Where The Mountain Meets The Moon by Grace Lin Song of Achilles by Madeline Miller Travel Light by Naomi Mitchison The Sound of Things Falling by Juan Gabriel Vasquez, transl. by Anne McLean Fruit of the Drunken Tree by Ingrid Rojas Contreras (tw: rape & other violence towards women, harm to children including death, panic attacks & PTSD) Velocity Weapon by Megan E.

EDITOR'S NOTE | Duy Tin Disclaimer: Để cuộc trò chuyện giữ được sự chân thật và tự nhiên, tập podcast này sử dụng nhiều tiếng Anh và có thể khiến người nghe không thoải mái. Thính giả vui lòng cân nhắc trước khi nghe! Chào các bạn, Mình là Duy Tin và đây là ‘the finding audio'. Mình biết nhiều bạn đã rất mong chờ episode mới suốt hai tuần qua, bọn mình cũng đã rất cố gắng để hoàn thành và trở lại với mọi người lần này. Ngày hôm nay, chúng mình sẽ nói về Mental Health (Sức khoẻ tâm thần). Như mọi khi, đây sẽ là một cuộc nói chuyện rất chân thật, gần gũi, và rất nhiều sự dễ bị tổn thương giữa chị Ly và mình. Tuy nhiên, mình cần mọi người lưu ý rằng trong episode này, chúng mình sẽ nhắc tới một số trải nghiệm với rối loạn cảm xúc (bao gồm rối loạn lưỡng cực và rối loạn trầm cảm), những cơn hoảng loạn, sự cô đơn, tự tử và ý định tự tử theo một cách rất cá nhân, nhiều sự đồng cảm và thấu hiểu, với mong muốn mọi người sẽ cảm thấy bớt một mình hơn trên hành trình này, và trân trọng cuộc sống hơn nữa. Nhưng mình muốn mọi người biết rõ được những khía cạnh bọn mình chuẩn bị đề cập tới, bởi trong trường hợp các bạn đang cảm thấy thể trạng tâm thần, tinh thần, tâm lý của mình không khoẻ, vẫn đang quá mong manh và dễ bị kích động, thì có lẽ bạn sẽ chưa sẵn sàng để nghe cuộc trò chuyện này. Hãy dừng tập này lại ở đây và quay lại vào một thời điểm nào đó phù hợp hơn nhé. Với những bạn đã sẵn sàng hơn thì một cách ngắn gọn, chúng mình sẽ cùng tìm hiểu tính lịch sử và định nghĩa của thuật ngữ “mental health”, cách nhìn nhận về vấn đề này trên thế giới nói chung và ở Việt Nam nói riêng những năm gần đây. Mình sẽ chia sẻ những nghiên cứu và góc nhìn về mental illness hay các chứng bệnh/rối loạn tâm thần phổ biến với hi vọng các bạn thính giả có thêm thông tin hữu ích dưới cả góc độ khoa học lẫn cá nhân về những trải nghiệm này. Sau cùng, chị Ly và mình cũng đã đi tìm một số nguyên nhân khiến cho việc nói về sức khoẻ tâm thần của chúng ta lại trở nên khó khăn đến thế, và khi bản thân cảm thấy không khoẻ như vậy thì cần phải làm gì, dù cho mình là người bệnh hay là người thân của những người bệnh ấy. Và tất nhiên rồi, như tất cả các lần chúng mình nói về những thất bại và sự dễ bị tổn thương, thì sẽ luôn đi kèm với những bài học học được từ đó để có thể yêu thương bản thân và cuộc sống mình nhiều hơn. Tập hôm nay mình đặt phần teaser này lên đầu, không kèm theo nhạc nền như mọi khi bởi mình thực sự muốn mọi người hiểu và nhận thức được những điều chị Ly và mình sẽ trò chuyện sau đây. Còn nếu đây là lần đầu tiên bạn đến với ‘the finding audio', thì bọn mình đang ở những tập cuối cùng của season 1 được phát hành vào 6AM thứ 4 hàng tuần trên Spotify, Apple Podcasts, Google Podcasts, cùng với những tương tác vụn vặt mỗi ngày trên Instagram hay Facebook nhé.

Gen and Jette talk about memoirs, themes that tend to run through most, and floating into that grey area of creative non-fiction versus cold hard facts. Show Notes: How truthful are memoirs and what is the difference between a memoir and an autobiography? Please tell us - we're not sure. So don't piss off Oprah or you'll live through the scandal that was A Million Little Pieces by James Grey. It looks like Kirsten Dunst and Dakota Fanning aren't actually making The Bell Jar. Was Running with Scissors Ryan Murphy's first film?? Jette's intro to memoirs was film school and a lot of pop culture-drug related stories. Does anyone else tell time by what Starbucks they worked at? What is the difference between an author and a writer and is someone who wrote a memoir either? So many memoirs have been adapted to film - any favourites? Elizabeth Wurtzel passed away on Jan 7. 2020 of breast cancer.

There was plenty to dissect in Hollywood this week, with the Oscar's releasing their embarrassingly middle-aged-white-dude nomination lineup and Harvey Weinstein's trial beginning in New York. Why can't the entertainment industry get a handle on their diversity problem? And why - after more than 80 women levelled accusations at Weinstein - is his trial hinging on the testimony of only two women? Plus, the topic we were desperate to sink our teeth into: Meghan and Harry's shock decision to step away from their 'senior royal' title. We unpack the serious aspects involved - the sexist treatment of MM in the media, for one - but also the most bizarre stories to emerge from 'Megxit', including surprise appearances from Oprah, Jessica Mulroney and Madame Tussauds (?).And you asked, we answered: This week Grace shares another embarrassing childhood incident involving physical activity.Recommendations: A crash course in climate change https://grazia.com.au/articles/bushfires-climate-change-government-action/Netflix: Before the Flood Elizabeth Wurtzel:'Prozac Nation''On Her One Night Stand Of A Life' in New York Magazinehttps://www.thecut.com/2013/01/elizabeth-wurtzel-on-self-help.html'When Beauty Fades' in ELLEhttps://www.elle.com/life-love/sex-relationships/advice/a10010/failure-to-launch-when-beauty-fades-323090/Podcast: Fresh Air - Boys & Sexhttps://choice.npr.org/index.html?origin=https://www.npr.org/2020/01/07/794265007/boys-sexPodcast: The Daily - The Case Against Harvey Weinstein Part 1 & 2 https://www.nytimes.com/2020/01/09/podcasts/the-daily/harvey-weinstein-trial.htmlPodcast: The Witch Hunt by The Guardian Australiahttps://www.theguardian.com/australia-news/series/witch-huntBook: Three Women by Lisa TaddeoMovie: Parasite (2019) Get bonus content on Patreon See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.

Few classes in law school are drier and more arcane than courses on patents and copyrights. And while the debate about intellectual property includes the worlds of entertainment, literature and technology, we don’t often make the connections between those arcane laws, the Constitution that laid down their predicate and the creativity that they seek to protect. But that is exactly what Elizabeth Wurtzel does in her new book Creatocracy: How the Constitution Invented Hollywood.My conversation with Elizabeth Wurtzel:
Elizabeth Wurtzel, author of the seminal memoir book Prozac Nation, revisits the process of writing the book. And on the twentieth anniversary of its publication, she explores the relationship between writing and the need to pay the bills. Speaking in front of an audience at McNally Jackson Books in New York City, Elizabeth argues that people have lost their minds trying to write great literature. Instead, she says, "If your whole thing is 'I can't starve', you'd be stunned with what you come up with. You'll be thinking of what you need, not what you want. You'll definitely come up with the next right thing." The host is Amanda Stern. Producer: Giles Edwards.
This week's guest is writer/producer Jessica Pilot. Jessica has written for The Observer, Vabity Fair, The Huffington Post, Movie Maker, SplitSider, Glamour, and many others. Pilot currently runs a 40-second online interview video series for NowThisNews called #RANTS. RANTS has featured everyone from Colin Quinn to Andres Serrano, Elizabeth Wurtzel, and Nina Khrushcheva in between.

Elizabeth Wurtzel is the author of four books, including Prozac Nation. "It's not that hard to be a lawyer. Any fool can be a lawyer. It's really hard to be a writer. You have to be born with incredible amounts of talent. Then you have to work hard. Then you have to be able to handle tons of rejection and not mind it and just keep pushing away at it. You have to show up at people's doors. You can't just e-mail and text message people. You have to bang their doors down. You have to be interesting. You have to be fucking phenomenal to get a book published and then sell the book. When people think their writing career is not working out, it's not working out because it's so damn hard. It's not harder now than it was 20 years ago. It's just as hard. It was always hard." Thanks to TinyLetter and EA SPORTS FIFA 14 for sponsoring this week's episode.

Sarfraz Manzoor meets author, Elizabeth Wurtzel, to discuss her book 'Prozac Nation'. In 'One to One' the journalist and broadcaster, Sarfraz Manzoor, has been exploring the risks and rewards of taking a personal story and making it public. This is something he's done in his book 'Greetings from Bury Park' and within his journalism where he's written - amongst other topics - about his mixed-marriage and the experience of being a new father. He's intrigued by both the process and the ramifications of revealing private thoughts and experiences: How do people react to you? Do they see it as a betrayal? Do you risk hurting friends and family? Is it worth the risk if you achieve something that truly resonates with your audience? In this, the last of his three interviews, Sarfraz Manzoor speaks to the author of 'Prozac Nation', Elizabeth Wurtzel. Published in the mid-1990s, it was considered the first in the 'misery memoir' genre and was a huge success. But how does Wurtzel feel about what she wrote now, almost 20 years on? Producer: Karen Gregor.

The Happy Ending Music and Reading series has formed a partnership with the arts colony Yaddo located in Saratoga Springs, New York, to present programs featuring writers who have been Yaddo fellows. On December 7th, curator Amanda Stern welcomed three Yaddo alums at the series’ performance home, Joe’s Pub, for a program entitled “Reality and Scandal.” Two of the authors, Helen Schulman and Jesse Browner, read from works featuring teenage boys in emotional, sexual and social turmoil — Schulman’s “This Beautiful Life" and Browner’s “Everything Happens Today.” This has been fruitful territory ever since J.D. Salinger’s Holden Caufield made such a hash of his prep school career 60 years ago. The third writer, Walter Kirn, went engagingly off course with excerpts from his New York Magazine-approved (as in the weekly “Approval Ratings”) Bible blog. The writer inherited a well-worn study edition of the “King James Bible” from his mother, and is offering up hilariously transgressive interpretations of the narratives (example: Adam and Eve’s expulsion from Eden is about illicit drug use.) Stern requires all her writers to “take a risk on stage,” and Kirn was eccentric here, too, inviting author Elizabeth Wurtzel, whose memoir "Prozac Nation" he savaged in a 1994 review, to come up to the stage to enact her revenge. (She didn’t.) Musical guest Mark Eitzel was the perfect foil to the authors, offering up a trio of mordant songs about marginal and desperate characters. (You’ll hear an homage to a male stripper in the excerpt above). Stern’s requirement for musical guests is that they play a cover song and try to get the audience to sing along. There was a kind of perverse pleasure, after an evening crowded with angst and tales of sexual misconduct, to hear Eitzel bring down the house (and carry every one of us with him) with that preposterously hopeful standard, “On a Clear Day You Can See Forever.” Bon Mots: Helen Schulman, author of “This Beautiful Life,” on the burden of allure: “’You are just an idiot boy,’ said Audrey…She slung that cool bag over her shoulder and she started walking. She started walking away from Jake and all the idiot boys, walking away from the prison of her youth and beauty and into the hard-fought-for loneliness of her future.” Jesse Browner, author of “Everything Happens Today," on coming of age: "If he were ever to be a serious writer, Wes recognized, he would have to learn to embrace solitude and silence.” Novelist, critic and essay writer Walter Kirn on Genesis: "God basically made a huge mistake in creating man, and spends the first part of Genesis trying to correct himself."
So says Elizabeth Wurtzel, speaking about her abandoned fantasy of solving all the problems in the Middle East. What's more, Hillary Clinton is "an evil genius" and a "feminist subversive." The author of the mega-best-seller Prozac Nation (as well as Bitch and More, Now, Again) is about to graduate from Yale Law School. She has been a New Haven resident for the past four years, a fact that The New York Times just picked up on recently. (Read its article here). Castaway, New Haven Independent's podcast interview series, caught up with her in her downtown apartment, where she lives with her pooch Augusta and a whole mess of books and CDs. Among the topics discussed: Hillary or Obama? Whither feminism? Why law school? Will she write more memoirs? And what are her plans for the future? Click on the play arrow to listen.
