La debutante Alba Moon nos presenta Hambre en Manhattan (Ed. Hiperión), poemario ganador del XXV Premio Valencia Nova de Poesía en castellano que destaca por su descaro a la hora de asomarse a las contradicciones del ciudadano medio, aspirante a habitar la cúspide de un sistema capitalista que lo seduce a la vez que lo exprime. Luego, Ignacio Elguero nos recomienda varias lecturas: Un Aladino y dos lámparas (Ed. Lumen), libro en el que la escritora británica Jeanette Winterson se inspira en Las mil y una noches para reivindicar el poder de la imaginación y Una madeja de estambre (Ed. Visor), obra que ha valido el XXXVIII Premio Loewe a la Creación Joven a la artista mexicana Leonor Pataki. Además, Javier Lostalé abre su ventanita poética a Luz en la palabra (Ed. Erato), el decimocuarto poemario del escritor y médico Carlos Doñamayor. En su sección, Sergio C. Fanjul nos habla de Redes vacías. Tecnología catastrófica y el fin de la democracia (Ed. Anagrama), breve ensayo en el que César Rendueles anima a imaginar otras formas de socialización digital más libres y democráticas que las propuestas por los oligarcas tecnológicos. Terminamos el programa junto a Mariano Peyrou, que hoy saluda la aparición de Un estallido, una antología de joven poesía española cuya publicación es prueba de la curiosidad y audacia de la editorial Cátedra, conocida sobre todo por sus clásicos.Escuchar audio
Come along for a deep dive into mixed pronouns in queer, trans and nonbinary narratives with none other than Sue Lanser, your favourite narratologist's favourite narratologist. Sue and I talk about why we might need to rethink the concept of gender disguise narratives, where we find mixed pronouns in literary histories and why mixed pronouns often become sensual in literature. My favourite bit: Sue asks me about my personal hero, the Grinch.This conversation is part of a miniseries that accompanies my book Queer Forms and Pronouns: Gender Nonconformity in Anglophone Literature (Oxford University Press, 2026). I hope you like hearing more from your host, but not to worry: we will be back to our usual format in just a few weeks.

Why does Susan suggest that we need to revisit Shakespeare's and other's gender disguise narratives? Susan mentions how characters that are perceived as masculine but use she/her are much more frequently ridiculed than characters viewed as feminine who use he/him. Why do you think that is? How has feminism expanded what ‘she/her' can mean? How does mixing pronouns do similar or different work from singular they? Why does the Grinch, according to Lena, have big they energy?
This book has a very fabulous determined, genderfluid, and Bi character. Reading her released something in me.Today we meet Sarah Stone and we're talking about the queer book that saved their life: The Passion by Jeanette Winterson.Sarah Stone (she/they) is the author of Marriage to the Sea; Hungry Ghost Theater, a finalist for the 38th annual Northern California Book Awards; and The True Sources of the Nile, as well as co-author, with Ron Nyren, of Deepening Fiction: A Practical Guide for Intermediate and Advanced Writers.Sarah's work has appeared in many publications, including Ploughshares, StoryQuarterly, Scoundrel Time, Alta Journal online for the California Book Club, and A Kite in the Wind: Fiction Writers on Their Craft. She has taught for UC Berkeley, the Warren Wilson MFA Program for Writers, and Stanford Continuing Studies, AND has written for Korean public television, reported on human rights in Burundi, AND looked after orphan chimpanzees at the Jane Goodall Institute.The Passion was a 1987 novel described as "arresting, elegant." Set in Napoleon's Europe, The Passion tells the intertwined stories of Henri, a young Frenchmen who serves as a cook in Napoleon's army, and Villanelle who is a red-haired (and web-footed!) Venetian.Jeanette Winterson's (CBE) first novel was Oranges Are Not the Only Fruit. She has written thirteen novels, one memoir, and two collections of short stories.

If you had to tell a story to stay alive … what story would you tell? Jeanette Winterson's new book, One Aladdin Two Lamps, is a nonfiction exploration of storytelling, culture, politics and the things that make us human. It's based on the One Thousand and One Nights, the famous collection of Middle Eastern folk tales home to characters like Aladdin, Sinbad and Ali Baba. At the centre of it all is Scheherazade, a woman who tells a vengeful Sultan stories for 1001 nights to stop him from executing her. Like Scheherazade, Jeanette sees storytelling as a means of survival. In the book, she uses those tales to muse on the way that stories shape our identities and our lives … and how they're a tool to better ourselves and the world around us. Liked this conversation?

Welcome to a miniseries about gender nonconformity pronouns in literature! In this episode, the amazing linguist Laura Paterson asks me many clever questions about singular they in literature. We talk about the function of pronouns, common misunderstanding about singular they, and neutral versus gender-nonconforming use of this fantastic third person pronoun. Whether you would like reading recommendations (Virginia Woolf, Lamya H, Rae Spoon…) or some insight into what singular they can do in creative and academic writing, this episode might have some answers – or questions – for you.

Jeanette Winterson is a writer who grew up in a Pentecostal evangelical family in a little town in the north of England. She was adopted. Her parents were poor. There was no indoor bathroom. Winterson dreamed of escaping that life. When she was 16, she fell in love with a woman. Her parents were scandalized. Winterson left home, slept in her car and managed to get into Oxford. She's fascinated by the ancient fairy tales in The One Thousand and One Nights. Winterson uses these stories as a framework in her new book One Aladdin Two Lamps. We talk about good relationships, ghosts, elves and AI. "Now What?" is produced with the help of Steve Zimmer, Lucy Little and Jackie Schwartz. Audio production is by Nick Ciavatta.
Livres, films, photographies, archives accompagnent Hélène Giannecchini et Blandine Rinkel dans leurs écritures pour évoquer les familles qui les entourent. Leurs livres résonnent par leur forme et leur sujet, où “l'attention et la joie sont connectées”. Généalogie fictive, héritage inventé, secrets, chacune partant de sa propre vie, rebat les cartes d'une histoire familiale qui procède de la fiction par les récits et les mots que l'on choisit, et les silences non comblés. Adressé à ceux qui se sentent fauves, intimement exilés, déplacés et éjectés de l'évidence familiale, La Faille s'attache à une communauté de solitudes, à ceux qui se sentent un peu anormaux, soit “en dehors de la norme” comme dit Blandine Rinkel.“Avoir une histoire permet de se situer dans le monde avec force” affirme la théoricienne Joan Nestle. C'est ainsi que Hélène Giannecchini trouve son récit, à la recherche d'une transmission manquée. Elle inscrit l'histoire des luttes et des mouvements queer à sa propre histoire familliale. Au-delà de la vie de ses parents et grands-parents, les ancrages historiques et politiques ont leur importance et dans l'histoire queer, la sexualité importe moins que le politique et la vision du monde. Autour d'Élodie Karaki, dans une discussion où sont convoquées Jeanette Winterson, Kath Weston ou encore Saint-Just, les écrivaines parlent des mots qui montrent l'importance des relations choisies.

In haar essaybundel Twaalf bytes haalde de Britse literaire grootheid Jeanette Winterson religie, mythe, literatuur, ras, genderpolitiek en natuurlijk informatica erbij om ons te helpen begrijpen hoe kunstmatige intelligentie onze wereld verandert. Ze is niet pessimistisch, wel kritisch. In deze aflevering gaat zij met de Nederlandse schrijver en historicus Ewoud Kieft in gesprek over de rol van kunstmatige intelligentie in onze samenleving – een gesprek dat de clichébeelden van AI als ‘schrikbeeld' of juist als ‘enige oplossing' overstijgt. Kieft publiceerde eerder de roman De onvolmaakten, over een samenleving waarin kunstmatige intelligentie tot alle facetten van het leven is doorgedrongen. Zou Winterson hierin een realistisch toekomstscenario zien? Of wordt de discussie over verschillen tussen kunstmatige en menselijke intelligentie hier voor eens en altijd beslecht?Exploring Stories is een podcast van ILFU (ilfu.com)Presentatie, selectie en eindredactie: Lisa Prinsen & Gijs WilbrinkMuziek: Evert Smit & Vincent Shore Hosted on Acast.

In her latest novel, One Aladdin Two Lamps, the writer Jeanette Winterson takes inspiration from the legendary story of Shahrazad in One Thousand and One Nights. But she calls on the reader to look again at stories we think we know, unpick how fiction works, and have the courage to challenge and change the narrative.The saxophonist and presenter Soweto Kinch will perform his new album, Soundtrack to the Apocalypse, with the London Symphony Orchestra (at the Barbican, London, on Friday 14th November), combining British jazz, hip-hop and orchestral music. This is the finale of his acclaimed trilogy of politically charged, genre-defying works that tell different stories of the past, present and future. The former MP Rory Stewart spent nearly a decade in Britain's most rural constituency, Penrith and Borders, and wrote a column for a local newspaper. In Middleland: Dispatches from the Borders he's collected together these fragmentary moments from rural life and local politics to capture a wide-ranging portrait of life and stories from the Cumbrian countryside.

This episode takes Jack Aldane to Manchester, where he meets two men who knew Martin Amis in a rather unique setting. Ian McGuire and John McAuliffe, both esteemed authors, are the co-founders of The Centre for New Writing at the University of Manchester.Not long after establishing this bastion of new literary talent in 2007, the pair began the search for ambassadors to endorse its mission and teach new entrants. In 2006-2007, Martin Amis joined as Iconic Professor of Creative Writing. He was followed in 2011-2012 by Colm Tóibín, who in turn was followed by Jeanette Winterson, who has filled the role since 2013. More recently, the centre has enjoyed the employment of Emma Clarke and Tim Price on its new screenwriting modules. As its website explains, the centre teaches people "how to write novels, short stories, poems, plays and screenplays", helping students "to read as a writer reads, offer seminars on form and theory, and on contemporary publishing".Ian and John recount their fondest, funniest memories of working alongside Amis, as well as the political climate after 9/11 that made him more of a political figure than he'd ever been before.This conversation captures an altogether different look at who Amis was. This is Martin Amis not so much performing for an audience as seeking to impart the best of what he knew to a new generation of writers. This was, as John describes, an "avuncular" Amis, then in his 50s and early 60s, still game for a pint down the local with his students, and with arguably some of his best work still ahead.And then there was Amis's surprising grasp of the 5 principles of Pilates. If you want understand what that's about, you know what to do.FOLLOW US ON TWITTER/ X: @mymartinamisFIND US ON YOUTUBE Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
Show notes / Cheat Sheet Infographic / Free Audiobook / IN THIS EPISODE: New York Times bestselling author and Communication expert Jefferson Fisher offers a transformative approach to handling difficult conversations by focusing on emotional understanding, self-control, and connection rather than winning arguments. Learn how to argue less and talk more with Jefferson Fisher's simple 3-step system. This summary covers all key ideas from the bestselling book on handling tough conversations and solving conflicts. TOPICS: Conflict resolution, confidence, Boundaries, communication, emotional intelligence KEY FIGURES: NASA, Crucial Conversations, Jefferson Fisher, Jeanette Winterson, Difficult Conversations, Emotional Intelligence, StoryShots, Storyshots App, How to Talk to Anyone, Josh Billings, The Next Conversation: Argue Less, Talk More SUMMARY: Jefferson Fisher, a trial lawyer from Texas, shares his insights on effective communication and conflict resolution in his book 'The Next Conversation'. His approach emphasizes understanding the underlying emotions and struggles driving conflicts, rather than trying to win arguments. Fisher argues that most arguments stem from personal pain and unaddressed emotional challenges, and by shifting from a combative mindset to a curious and empathetic one, individuals can transform difficult conversations into opportunities for deeper connection. Fisher introduces a three-step communication system: say it with control, say it with confidence, and say it to connect. Key strategies include managing emotional reactions through techniques like strategic breathing, using purposeful silence, and avoiding reactive responses. He provides practical tools for handling difficult people, setting healthy boundaries, and framing conversations clearly, with a focus on understanding the other person's perspective rather than proving oneself right. The book offers guidance for navigating tough conversations in various contexts, including workplace interactions and personal relationships. Fisher emphasizes the importance of emotional self-control, assertive communication, and active listening. His approach is rooted in his legal experience and aims to help people turn potentially confrontational situations into opportunities for mutual understanding, respect, and stronger relationships. KEY QUOTES: • "Arguments aren't about winning, they're about understanding people." - Jefferson Fisher • "If I can't be a bridge, I'll be a lighthouse." - Jefferson Fisher • "When you shift from trying to win to seeking understanding, you find solutions that seemed impossible." - Jefferson Fisher • "The person you see isn't always the person you're talking to." - Jefferson Fisher • "Confidence comes from taking action." - Jefferson Fisher KEY TAKEAWAYS: • Arguments are more about understanding underlying emotions and personal struggles than winning or proving a point • Effective communication involves controlling your own emotional reactions before addressing conflicts • Confidence in communication grows through action, not just intention - practice assertive and clear communication techniques • Strategic silence and well-timed pauses can be powerful communication tools, especially when dealing with difficult people • Setting healthy boundaries requires clear, direct communication with specific consequences and follow-through • Tough conversations are opportunities to deepen relationships when approached with curiosity and empathy • Every conversation can be different from the last - focus on learning and understanding rather than being right • Communication skills like emotional self-control, active listening, and framing conversations clearly are essential for resolving conflicts Learn more about your ad choices.

In 1985, Jeanette Winterson published her debut novel – the groundbreaking and subversive Oranges Are Not The Only Fruit. Genre-bending and narratively bold, it garnered then-rare mainstream success for a story that was fiercely feminist and challenged traditional gender roles. Four decades on, Winterson remains one of our most distinguished writers, renowned for her singular voice and restless curiosity. Her work spans a vast landscape of ideas, from artificial intelligence to religion, from myth to memory. In this episode, hear from one of literature’s most provocative and original minds, as Winterson joins the Wheeler Centre for an exclusive Melbourne appearance at The Capitol, reflecting on her remarkable career and the themes that continue to shape her writing. This event was recorded on Saturday 24th May 2025 at The Capitol. It was presented in partnership with RMIT University. The official bookseller was Hares and Hyenas.

Antonio Martínez Asensio ha elegido como libro de la semana 'Una vida' de Alejandro Palomas (Destino) que cierra la tetralogía entorno al personaje de Amalia que empezó con 'Una madre' y siguió con 'un perro' y la premiada con el Nadal 2018 'Un amor'.

Long before Manchester gave the world titans of industry, comedy, music and sport, it was the cosmopolitan Roman fort of Mamucium. But it was as the ‘shock city' of the Industrial Revolution that Manchester really made its mark on the world stage. A place built on hard work and innovation, it is no coincidence that the digital age began here too, with the world's first stored-program computer, Baby. A city as radical as it is revolutionary, Manchester has always been a political hotbed. The Peterloo Massacre is immortalised in British folklore and the city was a centre for pioneering movements such as Chartism. Suffragette Emmeline Pankhurst hailed from here and the city still treasures its wilful independence. Manchester's spirited individuality has carried through into its artistic output too, bringing the world Anthony Burgess, L.S. Lowry, Jeanette Winterson, Joy Division and Oasis. Mention United or City almost anywhere and you'll find fans, and opinions. Until Made in Manchester: A People's History of the City That Shaped the Modern World (Harpernorth, 2024), this magnificent city did not have its definitive history. From Brian Groom, the author of the bestselling Northerners, this work of unrivalled authority and breadth tells the story of a changing place and its remarkable people. This interview was conducted by Dr. Miranda Melcher whose new book focuses on post-conflict military integration, understanding treaty negotiation and implementation in civil war contexts, with qualitative analysis of the Angolan and Mozambican civil wars.

Long before Manchester gave the world titans of industry, comedy, music and sport, it was the cosmopolitan Roman fort of Mamucium. But it was as the ‘shock city' of the Industrial Revolution that Manchester really made its mark on the world stage. A place built on hard work and innovation, it is no coincidence that the digital age began here too, with the world's first stored-program computer, Baby. A city as radical as it is revolutionary, Manchester has always been a political hotbed. The Peterloo Massacre is immortalised in British folklore and the city was a centre for pioneering movements such as Chartism. Suffragette Emmeline Pankhurst hailed from here and the city still treasures its wilful independence. Manchester's spirited individuality has carried through into its artistic output too, bringing the world Anthony Burgess, L.S. Lowry, Jeanette Winterson, Joy Division and Oasis. Mention United or City almost anywhere and you'll find fans, and opinions.

Los oyentes fareros no fueron los únicos que debaten en sus notas de audio sobre lo que debería considerarse o no normal, también se lo preguntamos a nuestro invitado, el guionista y cómico Manuel Burque. Burque interpretaba a Borja en la película 'Requisitos para ser una persona normal' de 2015, que fue el debut de Leticia Dolera como directora de largometrajes, y con la que él consiguió la nominación a Actor Revelación en los Premios Goya de 2016. Además, como cada miércoles abrimos la librería con Eva Cosculluela, que nos recomienda el libro '¿Por qué ser feliz cuando puedes ser normal?' de Jeanette Winterson, las memorias noveladas de una mujer lesbiana en una familia evangelista ultrarreligiosa.
Spooky season is year-round, and so are our episodes about scary stories. First up, NPR's Ayesha Rascoe speaks with Jeanette Winterson about The Night Side of the River, a collection of ghost stories that weaves in the liminal spaces — Metaverses, one might say — created through technology to coexist with the dead. Then, NPR's Juana Summers asks Desiree Evans and Saraciea Fennell about The Black Girl Survives in This One, an anthology of horror stories by Black writers that contend with the genre's relationship to race.

Guest host David Sedaris presents stories that reimagine holiday rituals. In Tobias Wolff's “Powder,” a pre-Christmas snowstorm provides an adventure for a father and son. SELECTED SHORTS' late host and founder Isaiah Sheffer is the reader. A long-established couple turn out to be able to surprise one another in Allegra Goodman's gentle borrowing from an O. Henry classic. Dana Ivey and Michael Cerveris read her “Gifts of the Jewish Magi.” And David Sedaris says English writer Jeanette Winterson captures the city to a “T” in “Christmas in New York,” a modern fairy tale with just a hint of magic, performed by Richard Masur.
At the heart of the three-day exhibition Manchestermodern: past present future, curated by Factory International and CHAOS SixtyNine with the support of CHANEL, a special edition of the Rendez-vous littéraires rue Cambon [Literary Rendezvous at Rue Cambon] was held at the Victoria Baths in Manchester.In conversation with writer and critic Erica Wagner, author Jeanette Winterson, CHANEL ambassador and spokesperson Charlotte Casiraghi along with actress and CHANEL ambassador Kristen Stewart reveal what constitutes, according to them, the powers of literature. Together, they also talk about the books that are dear to them and the female literary figures who inspire them.
WARNING: This discussion deals with suicide. England's Jeanette Winterson reflects on her childhood and explores her search for love and belonging in her memoir, Why Be Happy When You Could Be Normal?. Winterson is the author of the hit, semi-autobiographical novel, Oranges Are Not the Only Fruit. Her latest book, Night Side of the River, is a collection of ghost stories. *This interview originally aired in 2012.
The portraits in the National Gallery's new retrospective of the artist Frans Hals capture his informal and fresh style which contrasted with other masters like Vermeer and Rembrandt. We hear from the exhibition's curator Bart Cornelis and by the writer Benjamin Moser whose forthcoming book The Upside-Down World describes his lifelong passion for the art of what's often called the Dutch Golden Age. The enthusiasm of politicians for the spectacular U-turn has reached the cultural sphere; in Scotland the government has U-turned a U-turn in its arts funding. Joyce McMillan, The Scotsman's theatre critic and political columnist, explains what has happened and not happened and what it all means for the arts in her country. As a retrospective of her work opens at the Courtauld Gallery in London, Claudette Johnson talks to Tom Sutcliffe about her portraits of Black women, her work in the 1980s with the BLK art group and how Rembrandt and Toulouse Lautrec's approach to painting women has inspired her. And Ghosts are in the ether… an upsurge of interest in the supernatural often coincides with disruptive events like the Covid pandemic. Tom Sutcliffe is joined by Jeanette Winterson whose new book Night Side of the River tells 13 ghost stories, and by Danny Robins' whose book Into the Uncanny has just been published.

Hey Ragers! This week, let's talk about the tragedies at sea that haven't been as widely covered by the media. There are thousands of lives lost at sea each year due to a lack of search-and-rescue missions for migrants looking for a better life for themselves and their family's.

I am on board when it comes to technological progress. I look forward to updating my devices (although I don't do it as frequently as I used to). New apps and features excite me. I'm pretty quick to adapt to change. I am not a Luddite. Or so I thought. “The word Luddite still means an old-fashioned type who is anti-progress,” writes Jeanette Winterson in her book 12 Bytes. “But the Luddites of the early 19th century were not against progress; they were against exploitation.” Reading these lines was the first time what the Luddite movement actually stood for really sank in. Where I had once seen atavism and fear, I now saw labor politics I could get behind.When I picked up Gavin Mueller's Breaking Things at Work: The Luddites Were Right About Why You Hate Your Job, I did so to learn more about the radical roots of Luddism and how the movement could inform my own thinking on the future of work. I also picked it up amidst the current fervor over AI and debates about whether the robots were finally coming for writers' jobs. In this episode, I share my favorite ideas from Mueller's book and apply them to commonplace tools like project management apps (ClickUp, Asana, etc.) and social media scheduling apps. I think you'll have a different perspective on tech once you've listened!Footnotes: Breaking Things At Work by Gavin Mueller 12 Bytes by Jeanette Winterson Gavin Mueller on the Chris Voss show (YouTube) "AI and Automation are destroying jobs, not work" via Quartz (YouTube) "Dear YouTube, creators keep burning out.

With quick wit and sharp insight, writer Jeanette Winterson lays out a vision of the future where human and machine intelligence meld -- forming what she calls "alternative intelligence" -- and takes a philosophical look at our species, asking: Are we smart enough to survive how smart we are? (Followed by a Q&A with TED's head of curation Helen Walters)
