Podcast appearances and mentions of Ian McEwan

A century from now, how will historians look back on your life? In his latest novel, What We Can Know, Ian McEwan imagines the future in 100 years. In a world altered by climate change and nuclear war, human beings are looking back at our current age with a mix of nostalgia, envy and contempt … which is why a scholar becomes fixated on finding a lost poem from 2014. You might know Ian from his breakout hit Atonement, which was made into an Oscar-winning film. This week, he joins Mattea Roach to talk about crafting his own dystopia, his concerns about AI and why we just might be living in a golden age.Liked this conversation?

The Booker prize-winning author of Atonement and Saturday joins us for the launch of his audacious new novel — a genre-bending, time-traveling tour de force. For decades, Ian McEwan's novels have probed the depths of the human heart, creating unforgettable and utterly relatable characters of extraordinary moral complexity, caught in the crosscurrents of memory, history, and desire. His new novel, What We Can Know, begins at a dinner party in 2014 with the recitation of a love poem among friends and follows to 2119, in the wake of a catastrophic nuclear accident, as a lonely scholar and researcher chases the ghost of that poem. When he stumbles across a clue that may lead to the elusive poem's discovery, a story is revealed of entangled loves and a brutal crime that destroy his assumptions about the world he thought he knew. It is at once a love story and a literary detective story, reclaiming the present from our sense of looming catastrophe, imagining a future world where all is not quite lost. In a special reading and conversation with The New Yorker's editor David Remnick, hear McEwan discuss the genesis of the new novel, his creation of a new kind of speculative literary fiction, why we will never stop longing for the literature of the past even as we reach inexorably toward the future, and much more. The conversation will air on The New Yorker Radio Hour.

Dame Rose Tremain is one of Britain's most prolific and popular writers, having written 17 novels and five collections of short stories over the last 50 years. She was one of only six women on Granta magazine's inaugural 1982 list of the best young British novelists, alongside Martin Amis, Ian McEwan, Salman Rushdie and others. Her fifth novel Restoration was nominated for the Booker Prize in 1989, she won the Whitbread Prize for Music And Silence in 1999, and was awarded the 2008 Orange Prize - the precursor to the Women's Prize for Fiction - for her novel The Road Home. Having already been made a CBE in 2007, she became Dame Rose Tremain in 2020 for services to writing. Her most recent work is a short story called The Toy Car.Rose Tremain tells John Wilson how her father, a largely unsuccessful playwright called Keith Thomson, inspired her childhood interest in storytelling, although he never encouraged her to write. She recalls how she first started writing fiction to help her cope with loneliness in a household where there was little parental affection. Rose recalls how it was a teacher at her boarding school who first recognised her ability and encouraged her to apply for an Oxbridge university place, only to be dissuaded by her mother, who sent her to a finishing school in France instead. She credits the novelist Angus Wilson, one of her English Literature tutors at the University Of East Anglia, for giving her the confidence to write her first novel. She also chooses The Diary Of Samuel Pepys as a major inspiration on her 1989 Booker-shortlisted novel Restoration, which was later turned into a Hollywood film starring Robert Downey Jnr. and Meg Ryan.Producer: Edwina Pitman

In 'Wat we kunnen weten' laat Ian McEwan de grenzen tussen feit en fictie vervagen. Een universiteit die boven het wassende water uitsteekt en personages die zich vastklampen aan flarden van een verleden dat even goed verzonnen kan zijn: McEwan jongleert met herinnering, wetenschap en verbeelding. De meningen van Annelies en Joris zijn dit keer iets minder eensgezind dan anders, maar vinden ze het boek uiteindelijk leesbaar of niet?

In today's episode, McEwan speaks with NPR's Scott Simon about the book's plot – it tells of a search for a lost poem that was written in our own times – and notes that he is less interested in the future of science than that of the humanities, love and daily life.To listen to Book of the Day sponsor-free and support NPR's book coverage, sign up for Book of the Day+ at plus.npr.org/bookofthedayLearn more about sponsor message choices: podcastchoices.com/adchoicesNPR Privacy Policy

International bestselling author, Ian McEwan, joins Simon and Matt for a chat about his new novel 'What We Can Know'. Optimistic manifesto? Or a cautious tale? In the first half of the book, we learn about a lost poem - which is at the heart of the novel - as this is ultimately a book about a quest. As well as poetry, they talk about renewable energies being on the rise and the positive conversations around climate change. 'you only have to stop doing bad things to nature, for it to push back quickly' Here's more on the book: 2014: A great poem is read aloud and never heard again. For generations, people speculate about its message, but no copy has yet been found.2119: The lowlands of the UK have been submerged by rising seas. Those who survive are haunted by the richness of the world that has been lost.Tom Metcalfe, a scholar at the University of the South Downs, part of Britain's remaining archipelagos, pores over the archives of the early twenty-first century, captivated by the freedoms and possibilities of human life at its zenith.When he stumbles across a clue that may lead to the great lost poem, revelations of entangled love and a brutal crime emerge, destroying his assumptions about a story he thought he knew intimately.

Ed Davey closed the Lib Dem conference with a warning not to let Trump's America become Farage's Britain. What might have sounded hyperbolic 24 hours ago sounded prescient by 8 am this morning - after Farage went on LBC and refused to distance himself from Trump's Tylenol conspiracy and then segued neatly into a discussion about immigrants eating swans (the Royal Park's police deny all knowledge of this). Opinion polls suggest the Brits are not big fans of Trump. Has Ed Davey spotted political opportunity in exploiting this fully? And is Farage going off the boil? Later, we sit down with novelist Ian McEwan to discuss memory, metaphysical gloom and modern Britain - which he gets to grips with in his new book 'What We Can Know'.Visit our new website for more analysis and interviews from the team: https://www.thenewsagents.co.uk/ The News Agents is brought to you by HSBC UK - https://www.hsbc.co.uk/EXCLUSIVE NordVPN Deal -> https://nordvpn.com/thenewsagents Try it risk-free now with a 30-day money-back guarantee

Wir schreiben das Jahr 2119: große Teile der westlichen Welt sind nach einem katastrophalen Atomunfall vom steigenden Meeresspiegel überflutet worden. Im wassergesättigten Süden des ehemaligen Englands erinnert sich ein Überlebender an die verlorene Welt. Der einsame Gelehrte und Forscher Thomas Metcalfe jagt dem Geist eines Gedichts nach, das der bekannte Dichter Francis Blundy vor über einhundert Jahren geschrieben hat. In "Was wir wissen können" zeigt Ian McEwan die Faszination künftiger Generationen an unserem heutigen Leben. Das Buch ist gerade im Diogenes Verlag erschienen und wird am 5. Oktober von dem renommierten britischen Schriftseller vorgestellt: bei der "Schönen Lesung" von radio3 und radioeins, im Großen Sendesaal des rbb. Eine Buchkritik von Frank Dietschreit.

In our weekly review show, Kirsty Wark is joined by writer and critic Hannah McGill and writer and journalist Alan Taylor to discuss What Can We Know, the latest novel from Booker Prize winning writer Ian McEwan, an epic story set in a largely underwater Britain a hundred years in the future which touches on themes including climate change and great poetry. They also give their verdicts on Frances Poet's Small Acts of Love, a musical theatre production inspired by relationships formed across the Atlantic between victims of the Lockerbie disaster in December 1988. The production - a collaboration between the Citizens Theatre in Glasgow and the National Theatre of Scotland, and with songs by Deacon Blue's Ricky Ross, is the opening production in the newly refurbished 'Citz', a theatre which has played an important role in the city and also in the careers of the likes of Rupert Everett, Glenda Jackson and Miriam Margolyes, and which has just reopened after a major revamp. They also review The Girlfriend, a new psychological thriller from Amazon Prime, which stars Robin Wright as a possessive mother whose life begins to unravel when her son brings home a new partner she suspects is not all she seems.

Ian McEwan's masterful new novel is a piece of speculative fiction that shows a radically altered UK on the other side of climate catastrophe and global warfare. But it centres on two academics reaching back into the past to uncover the secrets behind a poem performed only once and lost to history. We spoke with him about the novel's big themes, its human focus and how to bring past and future together in the present moment.

Sir Ian McEwan is one of Britain's most acclaimed novelists, a Booker prize winner with a career spanning five decades with work that often explores morality, memory, and the intersections of private lives with public events. Sir Ian has long been associated with contemporaries like Martin Amis, Julian Barnes, and Salman Rushdie, who together reshaped the British novel from the 1980s onward. In this episode of Ways to Change the World, he spoke to Krishnan Guru-Murthy about the great issues facing the world from artificial intelligence to the rise of authoritarianism - as well as his latest novel What We Can Know.

Una conversación sobre libros y literatura que te acercará a los grandes clásicos y a la nueva literatura. http://facebook.com/groups/LaRepublicadelasLetrasAntofagasta/

In this lecture Miles Leeson, Director of the Iris Murdoch Research Centre at the University of Chichester, discusses Murdoch's reception by her contemporaries and look at the lighter side of how she was lampooned, both directly and indirectly, in the work of H.E. Bates, Malcolm Bradbury, Brigid Brophy, Barbara Pym and Ian McEwan, as well as the reception of her work by Philip Larkin and Monica Jones. Whilst a good deal of this was affectionate, and some even complementary, there was also a streak of jealousy and cruelty present. As Murdoch grew in popularity, and as a public intellectual figure, this became commonplace and is part of the mythic figure of ‘Iris' that was played out in the 2001 film, but has now has begun to fade from the public imagination. Miles's lecture asks what it might mean for us to admire her work today in the light of these texts.

Luis Herrero y Ayanta Barilli hablan sobre el libro de Ian McEwan.

«Water remembers. It is humans who forget.»En vanndråpe finner veien fra oldtidens Mesopotamia til en gategutt i London på 1840-tallet, så videre til en yazidisk familie i dagens Irak. Tre personers liv og skjebner bindes sammen gjennom to elver – Themsen og Tigris – og vannet som renner gjennom dem.I romanen Det er elver på himmelen (til norsk ved Bente Klinge) vever Elif Shafak sammen svunne riker, kolonitidens plyndringer, moderne konflikter og læren om vannets kretsløp, i en handling som strekker seg fra oldtiden og frem til dagens konflikter i Midtøsten. Med spenning, humor og et dyptloddende språk, er Det er elver på himmelen en bok som begeistrer og fascinerer, og har blitt hyllet av forfattere som blant annet Ian McEwan, Arundhati Roy og Mary Beard.Tyrkisk-britiske Elif Shafak er en av verdens fremste forfattere av historiske romaner. Gjennom sine fjorten romaner på tyrkisk og engelsk, har hun utforsket kulturelle spenninger og sosioøkonomiske ulikheter mellom øst og vest.

Hun bor i selvvalgt eksil i London, etter stadige rettslige trusler i Tyrkia mot virket hennes som forfatter.På Litteraturhuset møtte Shafak journalist og forfatter Marte Spurkland til en samtale om tid, aktivisme og vannets hukommelse.Samtalen er på engelsk.

«Water remembers. It is humans who forget.»A droplet of water finds its way from ancient Mesopotamia to a street urchin in 1840's London and on to a Yazidi family in present day Iraq. Three people's lives and destinies are connected by two rivers – the Thames and the Tigris – and the water which flows through them.In the novel There Are Rivers in the Sky, Elif Shafak weaves together lost empires, colonial plunder, modern conflicts, and the study of water in a plot stretching from ancient time to the present. With thrill, humour and evocative language, There Are Rivers in the Sky is both enthralling and fascinating, and has been lauded by authors such as Ian McEwan, Arundhati Roy and Mary Beard.Turkish-British Elif Shafak is one of the world's foremost writers of historical fiction. Through her fourteen novels, she has explored cultural tensions and socioeconomic inequalities between East and West in historical and contemporary settings. She has also been an active champion of the freedom of speech and of human rights, particularly women's rights, an activism evident in both her fiction and non-fiction. She lives in London in self-imposed exile, after past and continuing threats in Turkey against her work as an author.At the House of Literature, Shafak meets author and journalist Marte Spurkland for a conversation on time, cultural conflicts, and the memory of water.

Er ist ein Superstar der Literatur und seine Bücher liefern immer neuen Stoff für Hollywood: Ian McEwan, einer der bekanntesten Schriftsteller dieser Zeit, der die Abgründe menschlichen Lebens und Liebens schonungslos ausleuchtet und ihre ganze Widersprüchlichkeit zeigt. Vielfach verfilmt mit Stars wie Keira Knightley, Anthony Hopkins und Emma Thompson, begeistern McEwans literarische Werke seit Jahrzehnten ihr Publikum. Sie sind von der Ambivalenz der menschlichen Erfahrung geprägt und von den Lehren, die das Leben erteilt. So auch sein 2022 erschienenes und wohl persönlichstes Buch «Lektionen», das die ganze Bandbreite menschlichen Lebens abbildet und eng mit der Biografie des Briten verwoben ist. Am Ende bleibt immer die Frage: Was ist ein gelungenes Leben? Und gibt es das überhaupt? Als Schriftsteller äussert sich Ian McEwan oft politisch, wobei er auch die Sehnsucht kennt, sich angesichts der dramatischen Weltlage «ins Innere des Wals» zurückzuziehen, wie George Orwell schrieb und Ian McEwan es in seinem neuesten Essay diskutiert. Darf man sich der politischen Verantwortung entziehen – und kann man es im digitalen Zeitalter überhaupt noch? Barbara Bleisch spricht mit Ian McEwan über Familiengeheimnisse und menschliche Schuld, über die Lasten und Freuden des Lebens und über sein Dasein als Schriftsteller. Eine Wiederholung der «Sternstunde Philosophie»

The British evacuation from the beaches of the small French port town of Dunkirk is one of the iconic moments of military history. The battle has captured the popular imagination through LIFE magazine photo spreads, the fiction of Ian McEwan and, of course, Christopher Nolan's hugely successful Hollywood blockbuster. But what is the German view of this stunning Allied escape? We are exploring that with today's guest, Robert Kershaw, author of Dünkirchen 1940: The German View of Dunkirk. We look at what went wrong for the Germans at Dunkirk.As supreme military commander, Hitler had seemingly achieved a miracle after the swift capitulation of Holland and Belgium, but with just seven kilometers before the panzers captured Dunkirk – the only port through which the trapped British Expeditionary force might escape – they came to a shuddering stop. Only a detailed interpretation of the German perspective – historically lacking to date – can provide answers as to why.SponsorsGet Exclusive NordVPN deal here → https://nordvpn.com/historyunplugged It's risk-free with Nord's 30-day money-back guarantee!"
