Cast (in order of appearance): Brandon Taylor, Matt Seybold, Eleanor Courtemanche, Nathan Wolff, Anna Kornbluh, Jeffrey Insko, Alexander Manshel Soundtrack: DownRiver Collective Narration: Nathan Osgood & SNR Audio For more about this episode, including a complete bibliography, please visit MarkTwainStudies.com/Lukacs, or subscribe to Matt Seybold's newsletter at TheAmericanVandal.substack.com

On the podcast this week, Elizabeth Fremantle is interviewed about her historical novel Disobedient, which is the choice for this month's Church Times Book Club. She is in conversation with Sarah Meyrick. Natalie K. Watson has written this month's book club essay about Disobedient. Disobedient is an enthralling historical novel that retells the turbulent life of the great Renaissance painter Artemisia Gentileschi. As a young artist in Rome in the early 17th century, Artemisia outstrips her brothers and contemporary male artists in talent. Her initial struggle as a painter in a male-dominated society is nothing compared with the dramatic turn of events that occur when a handsome male tutor is employed by her father to teach her linear perspective. Her rage against the trauma that she experiences at the hands of her tutor and the way in which law and society then fail her is expressed through her art. The story centres on her motivation for creating the brutal painting Judith Slaying Holofernes — a critical point, at which her art takes a dark turn. Disobedient is published Penguin Books at £9.99 (Church Times Bookshop £8.99). https://chbookshop.hymnsam.co.uk/books/9781405952811/disobedient?vc=CT203 Sarah Meyrick is a novelist. Her latest novel is Joy and Felicity (Sacristy Press, 2021).

From our author Dhivakar - Thiravadesam audio is available through Apple Aurality Spotify and Storytel Apps. Here the audio chapter one of Thiravadesam (this is small part of chapter) The first episode of 'Dravadesham' series. A small piece of piece! Natarajan is Natu: The captain who was called 'Nattan' came slowly. She jumped straight from the vehicle to the floor eagerly towards him. The one who saw the one who came welcomed me to see anger in his voice. "Is this how they shout out 'Nattan' for everyone to ask? How many times have I told you to call 'Natraj'.. Look that station manager looks at me like" She never cared about that station manager. But she gets angry too. Oops.. Shouldn't you be named and called Athan? Okay let it be.. First of all, take the cigarette tin out of your packet of shirt and throw it away.. Put the band in the pocket.. Father will scream when he sees. Already on a day and a half journey. ” ”Oh.. Thanks Kalyani! 'Giggled a smiling laugh and took a cigarette tin out of his top pocket and entered the band pocket with the same hurry. She stared and turned her face and waited for her dad. He just convinced the person who seemed to spread anger on his face. "Okay, why did Kalyani get angry.. Everything can be kept at home. There is no dust in the eyes during the train journey! ” 'Wow.. Thanks a lot Mr. Natraj for your care and your care.. Sorry, Captain Natraj! ” She just turned her face and replied without showing her full face and not reducing the irritation in her voice, both of them went near him knowing her father was getting down from the train. Station manager introduces himself as a gentle smile. No emotion on his face though. How much important vehicle is this Howrah mail. Won't you buy by fighting by looking at some good wooden boxes.. The hole cart.. Heavy rain from Naduvule Ongole station to Nellore.. Just flowing. If my box is like this, the other beds would be very bad. ” "Sorry sir! We are also trying. Good good passengers have sent the boxes to Europe as African.. Talked too much.. This is war season.. Order coming from Delhi before packing the existing vehicles.. ” "That is also right.. What will you do.. Which place.. Is it a magician? ” "Sir.. How did you find out sir. Yes, Mayavaram side is good.. ' "Snake's foot and snake.. Tanjavur man will put the truth about tuck tuck and break it.. Gotta be careful with him.. Hey plant.. The vehicle has been told to come to the Waltex road itself" Whether Natarajan's anger is valid to Kalyani or not, he knows that it will not happen to his uncle. He held his hand and made him sit in the cement seat. "Yes.. Let all this stuff get down.. Is Ganesha uncle inside?. When he gets down, he can take everything and get down. ” Kalyani deliberately interrupted. She called her name by pressure. "The plantation has changed a lot.. Let's go to Vizac.. All the collector and board chairman there honored us with beautiful bouquets of flowers.. Do you remember.. But your son-in-law doesn't have a bouquet of flowers.. Something else.. ” Natarajan looked at her again a little angry. But he realized in a moment that anger doesn't help and turned that look into begging. She showed beauty as different. Another voice heard from the train box to follow this fun. “Hey plant.. Are you looking good? ' Ganesan spotted near railway door.. Distance relationship between him and his uncle. Old man jumped down from the train door like a young bull folding his whore without diminishing excitement. Kalyani laughed with satisfaction after hearing the word Nattu. Even though her fake smile was bitter, the person who put a smile on his face nicely. Plant like this in front of everyone in the foreign world.. The question that when they are going to stop calling Bolt is what a question raises in his mind. But Kalyani never left him. https://youtu.be/mvXRHXJA7yU?feature=shared

Two friends and academics recap classic literature and take it off its pedestal. In our fifty-third episode, we cover the first proper Historical Novel™, Sir Walter Scott's extremely boring, Ren Faire-style medieval romp, Ivanhoe (1819). In this episode, Abby gets ghosted by her best friend and medieval scholar, Justine. Scott talks about nothing but clothing, pork, and boobs, and Daniel enjoys (?) all the invented names, the porn parody that would write itself, and all the tournaments which are really just medieval versions of Super Smash Bros.Cover art © Catherine Wu.Episode Theme: 'The Ballad of Robin Hood'.

The Man in the Iron Mask - Alexandre Dumas - Book 6, Part 9 Title: The Man in the Iron Mask Overview: The d'Artagnan Romances are a set of three novels by Alexandre Dumas (1802–1870), telling the story of the 17th-century musketeer d'Artagnan. Dumas based the character and attributes of d'Artagnan on the captain of musketeers Charles de Batz-Castelmore d'Artagnan (c. 1611–1673) and the portrayal was particularly indebted to d'Artagnan's semi-fictionalized memoirs as written 27 years after the hero's death by Gatien de Courtilz de Sandras (published 1700). The Vicomte of Bragelonne: Ten Years Later (French: Le Vicomte de Bragelonne ou Dix ans plus tard) is the third and last of The d'Artagnan Romances, following The Three Musketeers and Twenty Years After. It appeared first in serial form between 1847 and 1850. In the English translations, the 268 chapters of this large volume are usually subdivided into three, but sometimes four or even six individual books. In three-volume English editions, the volumes are entitled The Vicomte de Bragelonne, Louise de la Vallière, and The Man in the Iron Mask. Each volume is roughly the length of the original The Three Musketeers (1844). Set in the 1660s and concerned with the early reign of Louis XIV, the novel has been called an "origins" story of the King, "a tale about the education of a young man who went on to rule for over 70 years and become one of France's most beloved monarchs." Naturally, in a novel about Dumas' musketeers, the characters play an important role in Louis' education. The story of d'Artagnan is completed in Louise de la Vallière in the last of the Musketeer novels and the penultimate book in the set of d'Artagnan Romances novels.

Dolen Perkins-Valdez says she's attracted to what she calls "silences in the archives," or – holes in our recollection in history, particularly those in African American history. In her new historical novel Take My Hand, she tackles forced sterilizations inspired by the 1973 case of the Relf sisters. On Weekend Edition Sunday, Perkins-Valdez told Ayesha Roscoe about her decision to tell this story from a nurse's perspective, the double-edged sword of birth control for Black women, and her goals on writing from real life.

This episode consists of an interview I did via Zoom with Lauca (she is in Germany and I am in Canada). I had come across her website and I was interested in several aspects of her work, including the different genres she writes in, reactions to her decision to write from the point of view of a man, and her experience with self-publishing. You can check out some of her work on her website, lauca.eu.

A new historical fiction book follows an all-Black brigade as they fight in the Civil War. Join host Kerri Miller and author David Wright Faladé on Friday for their conversation about his book, what he learned from his historical research and how Etheridge's complicated backstory previews race relations today.
