Rachel Joyce's debut novel The Unlikely Pilgrimage of Harold Fry was a bestseller in 30 languages, became a much-loved film with Jim Broadbent and is about to become a stage musical. She's also got a new novel, a sun-soaked family drama called The Homemade God which has already been hailed by one critic as "the perfect holiday read". Levison Wood has travelled to 150 countries but holiday reading probably isn't top of his priorities as an explorer, documentary maker and photographer. He'll join us to talk about a career that's seen him serve in the army in Afghanistan, walk the full length of the Nile, make documentaries about endangered animals and circumnavigate the Arabian Peninsula. The actor and comedian Kiell Smith Bynoe starred in Ghosts and Stath Lets Flats and presented the Great British Sewing Bee but is about to go on tour with the aim of making improv cool again. Kool Story Bro sees him and a cast of comedians and actors pick up stories from audiences and make them into a show. What can he improv from this week's Loose Ends? Plus music from a contrasting pair of singer-songwriters - indie folk from Matilda Mann and jazz inflected from Maya Delilah.Presented by Stuart Maconie Produced in Salford by Olive Clancy

You can find Ben Shattuck at his website https://www.benshattuck.com/ or on IG @Benshattuck_ This week we chat with Ben Shattuck, author of Six Walks: In the Footsteps of Henry David Thoreau published by Tin House Books in 2022. Amy knew this book would appeal to Carrie because she is nothing if not a literary weirdo, and she has been since high school when she quoted from Thoreau in her senior yearbook. Despite her hopes that Ben would, like her, have a high school infatuation with Thoreau, he explains that his interest began much later. Even if you don't know anything about Thoreau, if you're a walker or a hiker, you have experienced the unique meditative impact of this activity and can appreciate Ben's insights on it. Ben also has a book of fiction out titled The History of Sound that is a finalist for the Pen/Faulkner prize so we are just really thrilled to have him with us today. And this week, for our recommendations section, we didn't just pick a random topic like asparagus or comas to share books about—we actually continue with the theme of walking. We each share at least 3 books that feature walking, hiking, or being in nature in some meditative way. We have literary fiction, memoirs, essays, and even a romance.

Send us a textIn the darkness of an old asylum, a young man unscrews the lid from a bottle of sleeping pills. In the nearby village, two couples begin their day. Local doctor, Eric Parry, mulling secrets, sets out on his rounds, while his pregnant wife sleeps on in the warmth of their cottage. Across the field, in a farmhouse impossible to heat, funny, troubled Rita Simmons is also asleep, her head full of images of a past life her husband prefers to ignore. He's been up for hours, tending to the needs of the small dairy farm he bought, a place where he hoped to create a new version of himself, a project that's already faltering … In this episode we talk to Andrew Miller about his latest novel, which some have called his best yet, The Land in Winter.

Wanneer je gestart bent aan je traumaheling zul je waarschijnlijk in een periode komen waar je het niet einde niet meer in zicht hebt. Alsof de horizon van heling steeds verder van je afdrijft. En juist in deze periode is het heel belangrijk om goed op te letten. Want in deze periode komen er mensen in je leven die je én de juiste richting op sturen én je kenbaar maken wat er nú gezien mag worden. Wanneer je deze signalen goed oppikt, zul je de volgende stappen kunnen zetten. De film waar ik aan refereer is “The unlikely pilgrimage of Harold Fry.”

CINEMA! E ANCORA CINEMA! Nuovo appuntamento con la mia rubrica "improvvisata" in cui esprimo opinioni su film visti da pochi minuti al Cinema per ricordarvi che il CINEMA è AL CINEMA! Un uomo giunto all'apice della sua esistenza umana decide, di punto in bianco, di incamminarsi verso una destinazione per lui importante. Ha inizio così "L'imprevedibile viaggio di Harold Fry", pellegrinaggio sofferente che porterà un uomo a ripercorrere i momenti salienti della sua vita e magari riscoprire un po' di quell'amore che credeva perduto. --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/madmike3/message
Jim Broadbent geht zu Fuß 1000 km durch England in "Die unwahrscheinliche Pilgerreise des Harold Fry". Frederik Lau hat ein Alkoholproblem, von dem er nichts wissen will in "One for the Road". Und es gibt "Neue Geschichten vom Pumuckl" im Kino.
Die unwahrscheinliche Pilgerreise des Harold Fry | Blasenpflaster bereithalten Wenn ein Film die Bezeichnung "Road Movie des Jahr" verdient hätte, dann wäre es wohl zweifelsohne "Die Unwahrscheinliche Pilgerreise des Harold Fry", der am 26. Oktober in unsere Kinos kommt. Darin will ein Rentner eigentlich nur zum Briefkasten gehen, entscheidet sich aber stattdessen dazu, eine Wallfahrt anzutreten, um eine im Sterben liegende Freundin im Hospiz zu besuchen. 2013 war der gleichnamige Roman ein großer Erfolg, ob der Kinofilm mit Oscar-Preisträger Jim Broadbent das auch sein wird? Dafür muss zunächst geklärt werden, ob die Verfilmung überhaupt gelungen ist. Kein Problem. Dafür haben wir unser zweiköpfiges Roman-Squad, bestehend aus Britt-Marie und Schlogger. Die kennen beide die Buchvorlage und haben dazu noch ein großes Herz, weswegen sie auch Stu im Podcast dabei haben – und um klüger zu wirken. Was dieses Trio zu der britischen Tragikomödie zu sagen hat, erfahrt ihr, wenn ihr 1000 Kilometer nach Norden reist. Oder einfach auf Play drückt. Eure Entscheidung. Viel Spaß mit der neuen Folge des Tele-Stammtischs!

Ma peggio di quello c'è L'imprevedibile viaggio di Harold Fry, che a sto punto meglio leggere Sentieri di ghiaccio di Werner Herzog. Non ancora peggio ma comunque pessimo Nata per te e dopo una digressione sul nuovo Dark Side Of The Moon di Roger Water parliamo dell'unico film carino della settimana: Totally Killer.

I vårt maffiga extravaganta och solstingsvarma avsnitt 275 drämmer vi till med med ytterligare en biopremiär och en högaktuell Blu-ray/Dvd/streamingfilm och reser tillbaka i tiden. Vi har sett den sprillans nya biofilmen HAROLDS FRYS OVÄNTADE VANDRING (The Unlikely Pilmgrimage Of Harold Fry). Harold lever ett stilla pensionärsliv med sin fru Maureen men får en dag ett brev från sin gamla vän Queenie som berättar att hon har cancer och inte har långt kvar. Efter ett livsinspirerande samtal med expediten på macken så beslutar sig Harold att GÅ den långa vägen från södra England till Skottland där Queenie ligger på sjukhuset.. Harold har bestämt sig, bara han fortsätter att gå så kommer inte hans vän att dö. Och vi följer med på vandringen! Vi besöker även den lilla familjen som hyrt en stuga i skogen och får oväntat besök. Besökarna vill inte bli bjudna på kaffe utan har ett annat, lite mer angeläget ärende. Det visar sig att att den lilla familjen på tre, är utvalda att stoppa jordens undergång och för att göra det så måste någon av dem dö. Annars kommer domedagen som ett brev på posten. M. Night Shyamalans nya film KNOCK AT THE CABIN tar upp ett riktigt läskigt och ångestladdat tema. Avslutningsvis så tar vi vår tidsmaskin "BLAST FROM THE PAST"och reser tillbaka till nådens år 1987 där vi grottar ner oss i filmutbudet från det året. Vi listar i sedvanlig ordning våra favoriter från det året. Så välkomna till ett extralång sommarlyssningsvänligt avsnitt av TT FILMPODCAST.

Près de vingt ans après son film-culte « Garden State », avec quel sujet revient le réalisateur Zach Braff ? Que contient l'album « Best of », désormais posthume, de Jean-Louis Murat ? Après Jean Dujardin marchant comme Sylvain Tesson, pour quelle cause marche l'acteur anglais Jim Broadbent dans « The unlikely pilgrimage of Harold Fry » ? Pourquoi déjà une nouvelle version du duo Taylor Swift/ Lana Del Rey ? Et pourquoi un nouveau mixage de l'album « L'homme à tête de chou » de Gainsbourg ? Le documentariste Nicolas Philibert a remporté l'Ours d'Or à Berlin pour « Sur l'Adamant », est-ce mérité ? Le nouvel album de la pianiste/compositrice Hania Rani aura-t-elle des sonorités électro ? Toutes les réponses à ces questions sont dans « La semaine des 5 heures » de ce lundi 29 mai.

With box office down another 12% and Super Mario Bros. still #1, James Cameron-Wilson gives thanks for The Unlikely Pilgrimage of Harold Fry at #3. Adapted by the author, it stars Jim Broadbent as a man who goes to post a letter – and keeps walking, and James found it deeply moving. On Apple+ he watched Chris Evans in action thriller Ghosted, which he found disappointingly overfamiliar. But worse still, on Disney+, was Peter Pan & Wendy, a live-action remake of the original cartoon, which he found wrong in almost every regard. Simon Rose found the French version of The Three Musketeers – D'Artagnan a perfectly enjoyable version of the much-filmed story. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

“Maureen's journey is about going to the dark — and when you go right into the dark, you then find the light and the kind of renewal — and of all of them, this book felt to me a book about rebirth, which felt the right place to end.” Following The Unlikely Pilgrimage of Harold Fry and The Love Song of Miss Queenie Hennessy, Rachel Joyce's Maureen completes her series of novels revolving around a cast of characters that you can't help but connect with. Whether you've read them all or are ready to meet Maureen for the first time, you'll find something to love. Joyce talks with us about the evolution of the world of her incredibly popular series, her writing process, the authors who have shaped her, what she's working on next and more with Poured Over's host, Miwa Messer.

Perspektivenwechsel Podcast #022 mit Birgit Minor als systemischer Sprachcoach zur Perspektive Sprache schafft Wirkung Mit Birgit Minor unterhalte ich mich über die Bedeutung von Sprache und wie Menschen wirksamer werden beruflich und privat: Ein Erfolgsfaktor ist dabei Kongruenz, also wie unsere Stimme und (Aus-)Sprache mit unserer Haltung, unserem Denken und Wollen zusammen passt. Die Grundthese von Birgit dabei ist: Jedes Wort wirkt und die Frage ist, wie Worte die Wirkungen erzielen, die sie haben sollen. Die Schwierigkeit dabei: „Alle Menschen sind gleich und doch einzigartig. Darin besteht das Dilemma des Mensch-seins“ (Zitat aus Die unwahrscheinliche Pilgerreise des Harold Fry). Wir sprechen über die unreflektierte und die reflektierte Nutzung von Sprache und Möglichkeiten unsere Sprachgewohnheiten aktiv zu verändern.

By Rachel Joyce A young man bumps into Stella on the street and knocks her off her feet. He then utters the words "I didn't even see you." For Stella those words are more of a wound than the bruises on her face and she begins to question everything about her life. Stella ..... Sophie Thompson Doug ..... Roger Ringrose Hendrix ..... Luke MacGregor Art Teacher ..... Stefan Adegbola Monica ..... Jane Whittenshaw Stu ..... Hasan Dixon Ian ..... Ian Dunnett Jnr Directed by Tracey Neale As the years have gone by, Stella has begun to feel invisible.

Hauswirtschaftslehrerin Margery, Mitte 40 und vom Leben enttäuscht, verkauft ihren Besitz und bricht auf zu einer Forschungsreise nach Neukaledonien, um den „Goldenen Käfer“ zu entdecken. Ein Abenteuer aus der Werkstatt der Autorin von „Die unwahrscheinliche Pilgerreise des Harold Fry“
Walter is 68 and Mary is 64. He is full of madcap ideas, she resists change. The only thing they have in common is they both hate Christmas. A story with a twist on the Christmas theme and it's classic Rachel Joyce territory – relationships, loss and ordinary people doing extraordinary things. Mary ….. Niamh Cusack Walter ….. Robert Lindsay Helen ….. Cecilia Appiah Directed by Tracey Neale It is in the park that Mary first spots Walter. He's drowning in the Lake and she calls for help. When she returns a few days later, Walter is there and berates her for interfering - all he was trying to do was learn to swim. It's a bad beginning but then their conversation begins ... Mary is played by Niamh Cusack. Her television work includes Heartbeat, Father Brown and The Virtues. Her film credits include In Love with Alma Cogan. Niamh played Lady Macbeth for the RSC and most recently Lenu in the National Theatre's production of My Brilliant Friend. Walter is played by award winning actor, Robert Lindsay.

The award winning novelist Rachel Joyce had her sixth novel published earlier this year - Miss Benson's Beetle.

Von Momo im Café am Rande der Welt bis im Tal der Herrlichkeiten mit Harold Fry - ich stelle Dir in dieser Episode 6 Bücher vor, die Dein Leben verändern können.
From the bestselling author of The Unlikely Pilgrimage of Harold Fry, Rachel Joyce brings us a funny and perceptive escapist adventure novel that’s just what's needed for our troubled times. 1950 London. Schoolmarm Margery Benson abandons her dead-end job to pursue her childhood obsession: seek out the golden beetle of New Caledonia - that may or may not exist. When she advertises for an assistant to join her on an expedition, fun-loving Enid Pretty, in her unlikely pink travel suit and pom-pom sandals, is not the companion Margery had in mind. And yet together they will be drawn into an adventure that will exceed every expectation. Miss Benson's Beetle is published by Doubleday and available on 23rd July 2020 in all good bookshops.

During a morning of coffee and cake at Durham Book Festival 2017 with Rachel Joyce, author of the international bestselling The Unlikely Pilgrimage of Harold Fry, she discussed her heart-warming new novel The Music Shop.
Amanda and Jenn discuss Civil War reads, diverse middle-grade books, reading slumps, and more in this week's episode of Get Booked. This episode is sponsored by City of Brass by S.A. Chakraborty and Weregirl & Chimera by C.D. Bell. Bookstore giveaway! Questions 1. Dear Amanda and Jenn, I am a middle school English teacher and I have a student looking for a book recommendations. She has read To Kill a Mockingbird, The Boy in the Striped Pajamas, The Giver, and Would You Reach Me and enjoyed them all. She seems to like books that tackle serious social issues as well as science fiction. Our school library is a little outdated and doesn't offer much in the way of books with diverse characters, so I'd like to direct her to something more current and with diverse characters. Thanks in advance. I love the podcast! --Rebecca 2. Hey Amanda and Jenn! I'm having baby #3 in December, and I'm looking for books to read on my e-reader during the middle-of-the-night feedings. I somehow missed this reading opportunity with my first baby, but with baby #2 a few years ago I read so much! Including at least one of Ruth Reichl's memoirs, Molly Wizenberg's Delancey and Homemade Life, but also a bit of romance, The Unlikely Pilgrimage of Harold Fry, and some other novels. I'm open to fiction, non-fiction, genre, etc. The main guidelines are: *fairly easy reads - no complex character lists and maps, and nothing too literary or high-minded. *conducive to reading in short bursts - easy to dip in and out of. Nothing so page-turner-y that I'll stay up even longer. Short chapters or frequent text breaks are a bonus, but not required. *nothing scary, dark, bloody, gory, etc... i.e. nothing where the jacket says (or could say) "chilling" or "haunting" *cozy and charming, but not cheesy *definitely no sick or dying kids/babies/children/moms, or disasters/apocalypses/tragedies *available as ebook (Kindle) So, what books can you suggest for me to read in the middle of the night as I nurse my new baby? --Betsy 3. I am looking for books about the Civil War for my father's 60th birthday. My mother is taking him on a trip to Gettysburg and I want to give him some books that will go along with his trip. He prefers non-fiction and has already read and enjoyed Killer Angels. I was going to get him a copy of Liar, Temptress, Soldier, Spy - but was hoping that you might have some other great recommendations! Thank you! Love the podcast! --Erin 4. Hi, Next year I am starting a feminist book club called SFF Fems that will read Science Fiction and Fantasy books by female authors only, with an emphasis on marginalised and own voice authors. Do you have any recommendations that would fit this criteria and make for great discussion at a book club meeting? Thanks so much --Tori 5. I'm trying to find books for my eleven year old daughter Cathy to read, but I'm a bit stumped. She's a voracious reader, and well above a usual eleven year old's reading level (this, just to be clear, isn't me being some annoying mom who likes to talk about how special my daughter is. She just happens to be ahead in reading.). She's read and loved Harry Potter, Lord of the Rings, and the Percy Jackson novels. She just read my copy of the Mists of Avalon and now has an obsession with arthurian legend. She loves history, and knights, and all that fun stuff, but I'm having a bit of trouble finding books for her. She's been reading some adult books on her own, and I'm very lax about what she's allowed to read and watch (the evidence being that I gave her The Mists of Avalon), and am not concerned about things being "appropriate" for her. We have a very open relationship and she comes to me with questions, we discuss what she's read, and honestly we are a very liberal family. However I would like to find her some age appropriate books as well, because I think it's important for her to read about characters her age to relate to. Everything we've been looking for together either doesn't interest her, or she finds condescending. Any ideas? I think some historical fiction would be good, but I just don't know what to look for. Thanks! --Jenna 6. Hi guys! I love the podcast and I'm so glad you're doing the show weekly now, it's my Friday treat to listen to you on the bus. I am in such a reading slump at the moment and I'm really hoping you can help. I had such a good reading year last year but since January, nothing is clicking with me. Could you suggest some books for getting out of a slump? I'm open to any genre, except horror (because I'm a wimp). If it helps, some books that I loved in 2015 were Spinster by Kate Bolick, Being Mortal by Atul Gawande, A Fair Fight by Anna Freeman and The Queen of the Tearling. --Cat 7. Hello there! Not sure if you have already answered a question similar to this, but I figured I'd go ahead and ask anyway. I am a huge fan of The Gilmore Girls, and I was wondering if you guys know of any books that give the same overall feeling as the show. The fast-paced language, the quirky characters and small town feeling, intelligent women, etc. I am open to any and all genres!

Harold läheb korraks õue, et naisele mõeldud vastus posti panna, ent mõtleb käigupealt ümber ja otsustab sõnumi isiklikult 600 miili kaugusele kohale viia. Ta usub, et seni kuni ta kõnnib, püsib Queenie elus. Nii asub Harold ilma matkasaabaste, vihmavarju, kaardi ja mobiiltelefonita uskumatule palverännakule läbi Inglismaa. (Rachel Joyce.
