„Sing mir vom Tod“ von Ivy Pochoda – eine Rezension von Constanze Matthes - Zeichen und Zeiten(Hördauer 08 Minuten)„Wir sind nichts als unsere Narben.“Nicht jede düstere Story muss in der Dunkelheit beginnen. Aber sie kann. Ein Frauengefängnis ist bekanntlich kein Ort der Freude und Harmonie. Hier herrscht das Recht der Stärkeren, der immergleiche Alltag. Gewalt, Drogen und Missbrauch sind an der Tagesordnung. Auch die Aufseher mischen mit oder schauen weg, wenn es brenzlig wird. Wir sind zu Beginn in Arizona – hinter Gittern. Florence „Florida“ Baum und Diosmary „Dios“ Sandoval verbüßen ihre Haft für unterschiedliche Delikte, beide waren einige Zeit Zellengenossinnen....Den Volltext dieser Rezension findest Du hierUnsere Live-Sendungen in Schwabing Wenn Ihnen das gefallen hat, hören Sie doch einmal hier hinein.

Elle a beau se considérer comme victime des circonstances, Dios, son ex-codétenue, ne l'entend pas de cette oreille. Elle sait que Florida se cache derrière des excuses pour nier la violence qui l'habite. Lorsque les deux femmes sont libérées de manière anticipée, Florida n'a qu'une idée en tête : récupérer sa Jaguar à Los Angeles pour s'oublier sur les routes. Mais l'obsession de Dios pour Florida se dresse sur son chemin. La poursuivant telle une ombre funeste, Dios la pousse à embrasser sa colère et ses plus sombres pulsions, tandis que Lobos, une lieutenante hantée par ses propres démons, se lance sur la piste sanglante des deux femmes.Dans une prose coup de poing, Ivy Pochoda met en scène la rencontre fracassante entre deux femmes issues de milieux que tout oppose, et pourtant liées par une colère profonde, une violence que la société leur refuse."

The Ball Boys are back and ballsier than ever. On the premiere episode of 2025 we have our first ever Lady Ball Boy, Ivy Pochoda, novelist, writer for Racquet Magazine and Second Serve, and former professional squash player.

Buckle up, it's 2025.

The Holiday Season is upon us! In Episode 222, we continue our annual tradition of sharing bookish holiday gift ideas. We've given these items to loved ones or treated ourselves to them (or received them as gifts!). We hope you find our ideas helpful. Since our last episode, we've had some fun biblio adventures. Two highlights: Chris took a leisurely drive through the back roads of Connecticut to Hickory Stick Bookshop in Washington Depot (the town that inspired the Gilmore Girls), and Emily participated in the Cherry Bombe member book club discussion of Ina Garten's memoir Be Ready When the Luck Happens, featuring Ina's co-writer Deborah Davis. In our “Just Read” segment, we discuss a gardening book, a YA novel, two picture books, and two novels, one a suspense thriller, the other literary fiction: Complete Starter Guide to Bonsai: Growing from Seed or Seedling--Wiring, Pruning, Care, and Display by David Squirer When We Flew Away: A Novel of Anne Frank Before the Diary by Alice Hoffman Fight of the Century: Alice Paul Battles Woodrow Wilson for the Vote by Barb Rosenstock, illustrated by Sarah Green I Am Book by Joren Cull Trouble Island by Sharon Short The Weekend by Charlotte Wood Emily also discusses two short stories she's read, “Johnny Christmas” by Ivy Pochoda from Eight Very Bad Nights: A Collection of Hanukkah Noir edited by Tod Goldberg and “Cat Brushing” from the collection Cat Brushing by Jane Campbell. Chris hasn't read Gregory Magquire's novel Wicked, but she's curious about it after seeing the new Wicked movie. Have you read it? Thanks as always for listening!

Marine biologist Jasmin Graham joins co-hosts V.V. Ganeshananthan and Whitney Terrell to discuss her new book, Sharks Don't Sink: Adventures of a Rogue Shark Scientist, which is about the beauty and diversity of sharks and her career studying them inside and outside of academia. Graham, who left a doctoral program and subsequently founded the community-based organization Minorities in Shark Science to make the field more accessible and inclusive, unpacks how Jaws-inspired fears about sharks fail to understand the species. She also talks about seeing similarities in how sharks and Black people are misrepresented, misunderstood, brutalized, and threatened. Graham reads from Sharks Don't Sink.   To hear the full episode, subscribe through iTunes, Google Play, Stitcher, Spotify, or your favorite podcast app (include the forward slashes when searching).

Following a record-smashing performance by University of Iowa basketball star Caitlin Clark, now the all-time leading scorer in NCAA Division I basketball, novelist and former professional squash player Ivy Pochoda joins host V.V. Ganeshananthan to talk about portrayals of women athletes in media, literature, and film. Pochoda considers the gender binary that continues to divide most sports and how athletes from Serena Williams to Lynette Woodard to Clark have been treated differently due to systemic bias. She discusses the lack of adult literary fiction featuring women athletes, as well as her new favorite novel in this category, the Booker-nominated Western Lane. Pochoda also reflects on how her athletic training helps her as a writer and reads an excerpt from a middle grade fantasy book she wrote with Kobe Bryant, Epoca: The Tree of Ecrof, in which sports play a central role.  To hear the full episode, subscribe through iTunes, Google Play, Stitcher, Spotify, or your favorite podcast app (include the forward slashes when searching).

From Squash Courts to Literary Pursuits Ivy Pochoda, renowned American novelist and former squash player, who is taking the literary world by storm shares her journey from the competitive realm of sports to creating gripping stories that touch our souls with her inspiring story.

Southern Californians have donated lots of supplies to help those displaced by the Lahaina fire. Shipping containers are full, but there are other ways to help. Ivy Pochoda's latest novel, “Sing Her Down,” focuses on two formerly incarcerated women making their way to and through LA in the early days of the COVID pandemic. Art historian Thuy N.D. Tran aims to shed light on a lost “golden era” of South Vietnamese modernism by piecing together collective memories from the diaspora.

On this week's Fully Booked Takeover, special guest host Megan Abbott (Beware the Woman) interviews novelist Ivy Pochoda (Sing Her Down). And in a sponsored interview, Megan talks with Preeti Chhibber and Alex Segunda, authors of original Spider-Man stories for young readers from publisher Marvel. Then our editors share their top picks in books for the week.

Aujourd'hui, le livre qu'on croque, c'est Ces femmes-là, un thriller écrit par Ivy Pochoda. L'histoire, c'est celle d'une série de meurtre, une première fois en 1999 puis de nouveau en 2014. Même mode opératoire, même population ciblée : les femmes qui travaillent dans la rue, les danseuses, les prostituées, surtout les femmes noires, métisses ou latinas. Celles qui font le trottoir, s'habillent de vêtements courts et moulants, qui sont des putes ou ont l'air de pute selon les personnes qui passent devant. Est-ce que c'est le même tueur ? Un tueur en série ? Pourquoi ? Pourquoi cette pause de 15 ans ? On suit la mère d'une victime de 1999, une inspectrice moquée par sa hiérarchie, une jeune femme qui se pose des questions sur son travail de serveuse dans une discothèque, une photographe qui cherche à donner de la vie à ses photos, une femme qui a survécu en 1999 mais en garde des séquelles. Des femmes laissées pour compte qui ne comptent vraiment pour personnes, qui restent des proies, souvent, qui ne sont pas crues car traumatisées, paranoïaques, droguées, prostituées. Plusieurs femmes, qui parlent chacune de leur histoire, de leurs croyances, de leur peur, de leur impuissance.Ces femmes-là, c'est un thriller féministe, un roman choral, une critique de la société étatsunienne. Plusieurs narratrices racontent leur histoire et nous font avancer dans celle du roman : ces voix, elles disent l'indignation, la rage, la précarité, l'addiction, la violence, le déni, l'injustice, la résignation, les moqueries, les moments de solidarité aussi.C'est un roman haletant et choquant, violent par moment, percutant toujours grâce à la langue crue de beaucoup de personnages et leur réalité à toutes. Le fait que ce polar avance dans son intrigue avec le point de vue des victimes ou futures victimes et des dommages collatéraux sur leurs familles est assez original et m'a plu. Je vous le recommande si vous voulez rôder dans les quartiers pauvres de Los Angeles avec le lieutenant Perry et prouver qu'il y a un lien entre les meurtres de 2014 et ceux de 1999. Pour cela, il faudra vous plonger dans ce thriller sociologique haletant.Vous avez lu ce livre ? Vous lisez souvent des thrillers ? Si oui, que me conseillez vous ?

Hörspiel nach dem gleichnamigen Roman von Ivy Pochoda. Teil Eins: Ein nackter Mann joggt in der morgendlichen Rushhour die Freeways von LA entlang, eskortiert von Polizeiautos und einem Hubschrauber. Ein Anwalt steigt aus seinem Auto und rennt ihm hinterher. Er tut dies reflexhaft, ohne lange zu überlegen. In der Schlange der Zeugen sitzt ein, soeben aus dem Gefängnis entlassener, jugendlicher Kleinkrimineller in geklautem Fahrzeug und schwitzt Blut und Wasser. Soweit die filmreife Eröffnungsszene. „Wonder Valley“ ist eine Geschichte über Outlaws und Sinnsuchende: da ist die junge Frau, die sich in eine Aussteiger-Farm in der Wüste flüchtet, der Familienvater, der in seinem Luxus-Leben keine Erfüllung mehr findet - sie alle geraten nacheinander ins Visier der jungen Autorin, die ein wahrhaft schonungsloses Bild der amerikanischen Gesellschaft zeichnet. Dabei spielt es keine Rolle, um es sich um den Glamour in den Vororten oder die Elendsviertel handelt – es ist die Präzision, der Blick fürs Detail, die Gnadenlosigkeit der Diktion, die diesen Roman auszeichnen. Fünf Einzelschicksale, fünf Biografien, die sich berühren, auseinanderdriften, wieder zusammenkommen, untrennbar miteinander verbunden sind. Alle auf der Flucht. Alle voller Sehnsucht. Alle auf der Suche nach dem einen Ort, an dem sie sein sollten, weil sie dort nicht hingehören, wo sie gerade sind. Ivy Pochoda, geboren 1977, geboren in Brooklyn, studierte in Harvard und war einige Zeit professionelle Squash-Spielerin. Aus dem amerikanischen Englisch von Sabine Roth und Rudolf Hermstein.

Plus, Paula reads her compelling letter of encouragement. Join our Patreon for access to an upcoming bonus segment from this episode, in which Paula talks about her riveting novel excerpt, featured in this month's Digital Plume.

She is the author of four novels, including Here We Lie (Park Row Books, 2018) and holds an MFA from the University of Southern Maine.

From a refreshingly honest new voice in fiction, Emily Beyda, comes The Body Double. Taking cues from both David Lynch’s Mulholland Drive and Sofia Coppola’s The Bling Ring, The Body Double is a cinematic and fabulously plotted noir that follows a young woman plucked from obscurity by a charming stranger to impersonate reclusive starlet, Rosanna Feld.  At first alluring and exciting, our narrator’s new life as a body double quickly turns sour. Locked up in a small apartment in the hills, she studies footage of Rosanna, eats her favorite foods, wears her clothes, and endures punishing exercises to obtain Rosanna’s “perfect” body. She takes on Rosanna’s public persona and gains entry to her inner circle, but her sense of self deteriorates and doubts start to arise.  The Body Double is a stunning exploration of fame, beauty, and the hidden cost of keeping up appearances. Equal parts engrossing and unnerving, Beyda’s debut novel offers a sharply observed portrayal of the dark side of Hollywood. Growing up in LA, Beyda worked for the family of a famous Hollywood star and her intimate knowledge of that world informs every detail on the page.

In the second episode of the Mood Indigo podcast, Publishing Director Ellah Wakatama Allfrey speaks to Ivy Pochoda, author of the award-winning LA thriller Wonder Valley, about the desert setting of her novel, her characters' search for family and community, and the temptation of running away.

  A native New Yorker, Ivy Pochoda has discovered the pull of the desert. After moving to LA, she'd heard folks talk about going to the desert.  Eventually she took a trip to Palm Springs and, though nice, wasn't really the experience she was looking for. The second trip she booked a vacation rental 'near Joshua Tree National Park'. After driving for sometime past two entrances to the National Park, Ivy realized the definition of the word 'near'  had different meanings to her and the vacation rental owner. Turns out, the reward for all that driving was staying in what's known as The Tile House in Wonder Valley.   Growing up in NY, Ivy started playing squash, found she was very good at it and ended up traveling the world to play. When her parents encouraged her to get off the 'road' and find something more stable, Ivy decided on writing. Her publisher parents weren't certain that was the right choice - Ivy has prevailed. Her third novel, 'Wonder Valley', was a Los Angeles Times Book of the Year and her writing has appeared in many publications like the New York Times, Wall Street Journal and The LA Times, just to name a few.   Though only featured in three chapters of 'Wonder Valley',  we talk about dealing with the reactions of locals, who may feel 'their place' may have been misrepresented in a work of fiction.   After watching a film about LA's Skid Row, Ivy decided to get involved with LAMP (Los Angeles Men's Place) Community, teaching creative writing in their arts program. LAMP has since merged with another organization and is now known as The People Concern.   Ivy finds herself planning to return to the desert even before the present trip she's on is over. Me thinks she's hooked.

Speak (Ecco Press)  A thoughtful, poignant novel that explores the creation of Artificial Intelligence--illuminating the very human need for communication, connection, and understanding. In a narrative that spans geography and time, from the Atlantic Ocean in the seventeenth century, to a correctional institute in Texas in the near future, and told from the perspectives of five very different characters, Speak considers what it means to be human, and what it means to be less than fully alive. A young Puritan woman travels to the New World with her unwanted new husband. Alan Turing, the renowned mathematician and code breaker, writes letters to his best friend's mother. A Jewish refugee and professor of computer science struggles to reconnect with his increasingly detached wife. An isolated and traumatized young girl exchanges messages with an intelligent software program. A former Silicon Valley Wunderkind is imprisoned for creating illegal lifelike dolls. Each of these characters is attempting to communicate across gaps--to estranged spouses, lost friends, future readers, or a computer program that may or may not understand them. In dazzling and electrifying prose, Louisa Hallexplores how the chasm between computer and human--shrinking rapidly with today's technological advances--echoes the gaps that exist between ordinary people. Though each speaks from a distinct place and moment in time, all five characters share the need to express themselves while simultaneously wondering if they will ever be heard, or understood. Praise for Speak "Speak reads like a hybrid of David Mitchell and Margaret Atwood; a literary page turner that spans four centuries and examines the idea of who and what we define as human. Louisa Hall has written a brilliant novel."—Philipp Meyer, author of New York Times bestseller The Son "Speak is that rarest of finds: a novel that doesn't remind me of any other book I've ever read. A complex, nuanced, and beautifully written meditation on language, immortality, the nature of memory, the ethical problems of artificial intelligence, and what it means to be human."—Emily St. John Mandel, author of Station Eleven “Louisa Hall's Speak is a deeply original and intelligent novel. It's also riveting. I wouldn't have thought artificial intelligence, as a subject, would make for such a warm and human and psychologically astute novel. I'll be thinking about Babybots and Hall's quietly chilling and all-too-plausible vision of the near-future for a long time to come.”—Adelle Waldman, author ofThe Love Affairs of Nathaniel P “Speak is a triumph. With a poet's voice, Louisa Hall reaches into the past and imagines the future to weave a beautifully complex novel about our human need to communicate. The result is a transcendent story about artificial intelligence that heartbreaking and very, very real.”—Ivy Pochoda, author of Visitation Street Louisa Hall grew up in Philadelphia. After graduating from Harvard, she played squash professionally while finishing her pre-medical coursework and working in a research lab at the Albert Einstein Hospital.

Our first live episode, recorded in front of an amazing audience on August 22nd at the Barnes & Noble at the Grove in Los Angeles, California. We’re joined by guest author Ivy Pochoda, who just that day was wrapping up the book tour for her latest novel, Visitation Street. For the Disco trio to read, Ivy selected the novel Tampa by Alissa Nutting, the first book to make Tod’s jokes and innuendos seem tame by comparison. But first, we each do a Bookshelf Revisit, two of which harken back to the “origin stories” we told in our very first episode. Then Tod brings the Poet Voice to the masses. We let the audience vote on which of his dramatically intoned selections is actually a poem. It’s long, it’s unruly, and thanks to many technical issues, it doesn’t sound all that great…but it’s Literary Disco live!
