Nicole Krauss may be best known for her novels, which include Man Walks into a Room, History of Love, Forest Dark, and Great House. But several of her short stories have appeared in The New Yorker, Best American Short Stories, the Atlantic, and elsewhere. For the first time, she's published a collection of her stories and joins Marrie Stone to talk about them. To Be a Man explores issues of gender in its many forms—parenthood, childhood, romantic partnerships, and friendships. The men in her stories are fathers, sons, soldiers, artists, and lovers with human fallibility and the desire for redemption.Krauss talks about how motherhood changed her perspective on gender issues, how films and other art forms inform her work, the reasons she's reluctant to teach writing, and so much more.Download audio.

Tudor Chirilă este actor și muzician, în această ordine, pentru că Tudor spune că așa și-a început cariera artistică, fiind actor, și că nu are în muzică echivalentul studiilor în teatru. În plus, simte că teatrul îi oferă o diversitate mai mare de exprimare artistică decât muzica și este unul dintre motivele pentru care a ales să rămână în țară. Din 2014 este membru al juriului la emisiunea Vocea României, rol pe care l-a acceptat și pentru că îi oferă libertatea financiară de a susține proiecte în care crede, cum ar fi piesa de teatru In a Forest Dark and Deep pe care a produs-o la unteatru. În muzică, Tudor a fost dintotdeauna interesat să înțeleagă și să experimenteze cu stiluri diferite și spune că o trupă trebuie să se gândească la generațiile noi de ascultători și că nu i-ar fi plăcut să cânte piese similare cu „Nu am chef azi” pentru tot restul vieții. Provocarea în prezent pentru el și pentru Vama este să reușească să iasă din țară cu muzica, pentru că Tudor crede că orice muzician vrea să vadă că la versurile lui rezonează un public mai larg, internațional. Deși i-ar plăcea să-și ia un an sabatic pentru că a obosit și găsește mai greu ca în trecut liniștea necesară să compună, pentru Tudor cel mai important acum e să învețe cum să-și gestioneze timpul mai bine astfel încât să petreacă cât mai mult din el cu copiii săi. Podcastul Pe Bune este prezentat de UniCredit Bank și susținut de BestJobs, două companii care cred în puterea minților creative. Credits: Temă muzicală: Alex Turcu. Editor sunet: Horia Baldea.

We were joined by the bestselling, twice Orange Prize-shortlisted, National Book Award-nominated, Nicole Krass, to discuss her vibrant tale of transformation and self-discovery, Forest Dark.
Dan's immersion in the subject started in 1986 when he had his first very intense encounter. It was a life changing event for an 18yr old kid and, while keeping his ear to the ground for any Bigfoot news, he kept his story to himself for twenty five years before finally telling it publicly. Dan told his story and the stories of friends growing up, in the Northern California Sasquatch Stories series on the Bigtruth YouTube channel. Dan started Bigtruth on Facebook, a Bigfoot news page simultaneously near the end of 2012. Ed Brown came on board for the Sit Down With Ed Brown and Sasquatch Encounters series' in 2014 and Dan's ongoing research in the Sky Lakes Wilderness Area of the Southern Oregon Cascades can be found on the "Bigtruth's Sasquatch Investigations" tab on the Bigtruth YouTube channel. The Bigtruth blog can be found at bigtruthblog.blogspot.com The blog contains articles by Dan and Ed Brown and also a blog series by best selling author Scott Harper documenting the earliest Sasquatch encounters from every state across the country. Dan is a two time author. "The Wild Boy of Kentucky" and "Northern California Sasquatch Stories" are both available at the Amazon and Kindle Stores. Happily married with 4 kids and 5 grandkids, Dan has a passion for nature and the subject that takes him into the pristine Sky Lakes Wilderness on a regular basis. In the summer of 2017 Bigtruth Productions teamed with Lundy Street Productions to film "Here Be Giants" in Dan's research area. The film will be released in 2019. In 2018 Bigtruth will produce two films. "The Bigger Truth" is a documentary that will again be filmed in Dan's research area through the summer and "Forest Dark" is a feature film that will be filmed in July. https://bigtruthblog.blogspot.com/

The Turkish Nobel winner and American novelist talk about their new books, The Red-Haired Woman and Forest Dark
I have been waiting to chat to my next guest for ages! I first met Olivia Williams when I was understudying Matthew Fox in Neil Labute’s two-hander “In a Forest Dark and Deep” back in 2011, and have had the privilege to share the stage with her on numerous Word Theatre stages around London. I am in AWE of her talent. Olivia doesn’t just play characters, she inhabits them. Rosemary Cross in Rushmore or Anna Crowe in The Sixth Sense to Miss Stubbs in An Education. On screen, you just believe her. And that’s brilliant acting. As for her on stage exploits...she’s such a powerhouse. And she's going from strength to strength in her latest production "Mosquitoes" at the National Theatre in London.
Nicole Krauss is an award-winning, best-selling author, was on the New Yorker's list of "20 Under 40" and her latest novel Forest Dark, about the personal transformation of two seemingly disparate individuals, has been called "elegant, provocative and mesmerizing." The History of Love author who Roxanne calls "provocatively philosophical, fiercely intelligent and poetic," came straight to Just the Right Book on the day of her debut to talk about her new book, which has been called "a brilliant novel" by Pulitzer Prize winning author, Phillip Roth. Make sure to stay tuned after the interview with Nicole for a special installment of What's On the Front Table with Lissa Muscatine, one of the owners of the renowned Politics and Prose Bookstore in Washington, DC.

As news breaks of a new all-female film version of William Golding's classic Lord of the Flies, the novelist Joanne Harris and film critic Karen Krizanovich join Andrea Catherwood to discuss whether it's a good idea. Patti Cake$ stars Danielle Macdonald as an unlikely rapper with talent but little opportunity. It's the first film for writer-director Geremy Jasper and won a warm reception at the Sundance Film Festival. Critic Mark Eccleston reviews.The American writer Nicole Krauss' books include The History of Love, which became an international bestseller, and Great House - both were shortlisted for the Orange Prize. Ten years ago she was chosen as one of Granta's Best Young American Novelists. Now her first book for 7 years, Forest Dark, is published: a contemplation of identity and shaking off the stories we tell about ourselves. She talks about the novel's characters including 68-year-old former New York lawyer Epstein... and a novelist called Nicole. The Market Theatre is bringing its award-winning production of The Suitcase from Johannesburg to Hull and the northeast. It's about a young couple who leave their village hoping for a better life in Durban. It doesn't work out and when the husband steals a suitcase - with no idea what's inside - life really unravels. It is, says director James Ngcobo, very different from the anti-apartheid, oppositional theatre that made the Market famous around the globe in the years of struggle.
