Perché l'italiano? è il titolo dell'ultima raccolta di saggi della scrittrice anglo-bengalese Jhumpa Lahiri. Lahiri, a un certo punto della sua vita, ha scelto l'italiano come sua lingua letteraria e ci racconta perché. Il regista cinese Jia Zhangke nel suo ultimo film, Generazione romantica, descrive i grandi cambiamenti in corso nel suo paese sullo sfondo di una storia d'amore. Al teatro Bellini di Napoli è in scena Morte accidentale di un anarchico, una commedia di Dario Fo e Franca Rame del 1970 ispirata alla morte di Giuseppe Pinelli. La regia è di Antonio Latella. Con l'ultimo album, Ranch, il rapper sardo Salmo si conferma uno degli artisti più interessanti della scena musicale italiana.

Maria Luisa Frisa"I racconti della moda"Einaudi Editorewww.einaudi.itÈ la forma d'arte piú contraddittoria di tutte. Visionaria e insieme classica, pop ma anche snob, fieramente ignorata da molti eppure capace di muovere il mondo. La moda è un prisma: cultura e industria, sogno irraggiungibile e necessità quotidiana, haute couture e fast fashion. Ma in tutti questi anni, come l'ha raccontata la letteratura? E cosa ne sappiamo noi, veramente? Tra grandi nomi e riscoperte che non potremo piú dimenticare, in questa raccolta scintillano voci, sguardi e immaginari diversissimi, cuciti in un disegno audace, eclettico e divertente, pieno di intelligenza. Un viaggio dai salotti sfarzosi di inizio Novecento fino alle passerelle e ai flash dei giorni nostri, dai fruscii dell'atelier ai corpi iconici di domani.La moda è un linguaggio universale, che ci parla di noi e del tempo in cui viviamo. Ogni giorno, ogni volta che usciamo di casa, stiamo decidendo come mostrarci al mondo: dobbiamo sapere che tutto ciò che indossiamo è una forma d'arte progettata per noi da chissà chi. Maria Luisa Frisa quest'arte la conosce benissimo, la teorizza e la narra da anni. E in questa raccolta si serve di alcuni grandi racconti per dar forma al suo moda-pensiero, usando la letteratura come strumento per parlare di corpi, e degli abiti con cui si mostrano, e delle società che attraversano. Immaginando la moda come un affaccio panoramico sul mondo. Troverete, tra gli altri, Joyce Carol Oates che racconta di ragazze, consenso e abuso nell'America profonda, Pier Vittorio Tondelli con una riflessione su musica, stile e cravatte, Bret Easton Ellis che mette in scena la ricca disperazione del jet set di Los Angeles. Mentre Stefano Pistolini parte dal mito fondativo di Woodstock per capire l'impatto delle ondate giovanili sulla società dei consumi, Flavia Piccinni ci mette in guardia sui pericoli delle sfilate per bambini e ci fa entrare in quell'universo parallelo che è la moda per l'infanzia. E poi scoprirete la parabola di un artista fuori dagli schemi come Leigh Bowery, mondi immaginari in cui gli abiti diventano grandi come interi palazzi e le donne ci si nascondono dentro; assisterete a spettacoli fetish con luci soffuse, lacci e forbici, e vi misurerete con testi rivelatori come quello di Jhumpa Lahiri sui tanti significati che assume l'uso della divisa nella scuola dell'obbligo. E ancora, una serie di recuperi d'eccezione: Irene Brin, Gianna Manzini e la moda maschile secondo Lucio Ridenti. Infine, un dono: un racconto disperso e ritrovato di Michela Murgia.Maria Luisa Frisa, teorica della moda e curatrice, professoressa ordinaria all'Università Iuav di Venezia, dove ha fondato il corso di laurea in Design della moda e Arti multimediali.

For the 200th episode of Always Take Notes Simon and Rachel speak with the novelist Frederick Forsyth. He began his career in the Royal Air Force in 1956, before leaving to pursue journalism. Frederick worked for Reuters, the BBC, and as a freelancer; part of his early career was spent covering French affairs, including the attempted assassination of Charles de Gaulle. That provided the inspiration for "The Day of the Jackal", his first novel, which was published in 1971. Frederick's subsequent thrillers include "The Odessa File", "The Dogs of War," "The Fourth Protocol" and "The Fist of God", and he has sold over 70 million books worldwide. He also had extensive involvement with MI6 - the British overseas intelligence agency - starting in the 1960s. Many of Frederick's works have been adapted for the screen, including a new TV version of "The Day of the Jackal", which premiered in 2024. We spoke to Frederick about his career as a foreign correspondent, turning to fiction with "The Day of the Jackal", and his relationship with the intelligence services.

Several Silver books followed until Paula published "The Girl on the Train", a thriller, in 2015. The book became a worldwide hit, selling more than 23 million copies, and was adapted into a film starring Emily Blunt. Paula's subsequent thrillers, "Into the Water" and "A Slow Fire Burning", were also instant bestsellers. We spoke to Paula about moving from financial journalism to writing fiction, experiencing huge global success with "The Girl on the Train", and her latest novel, "The Blue Hour".

Penn and Joy discuss Jhumpa Lahiri's ground-breaking novel "The Namesake," a coming of age story of an Indian-American kid growing up 1st generation. Watch Nikhil/Gogol as he grows up outside of Boston to discovering himself in New York City. Gogol's experience resonates with first generation kids across America, especially the Indian ones!
Writer Jhumpa Lahiri grew up in Rhode Island after her family emigrated from India when she was a toddler. Her first language was Bengali and she spoke English in school. When she was 32, Lahiri won a Pulitzer Prize for Fiction for her first book Interpreter of Maladies. It was an honor but it also put a lot of pressure on her as a writer. Then Lahiri fell in love with the Italian language and when she moved to Rome, she discovered a kind of freedom. Now, Lahiri writes her books in Italian. Her latest work of fiction is called Roman Stories. We talk about identity, culture and what it's like to live between 2 different worlds. “Now What?” is produced with the help of Steve Zimmer, Lucy Little and Jackie Schwartz. Audio production is by Nick Ciavatta.

Brittany and Jeannetta welcome Amelia Louise Herridge Ishak to the podcast to discuss reading as a writer. Amelia comes from London, England and has an MPhil in Anglo-Saxon, Norse and Celtic and moved to Aarhus, Denmark hunting for viking myths and monsters. Norse mythology and the rawness of Scandinavian nature inspires her work. She joined the Aarhus Women Write in 2017 and took over the running of it in 2020. The three discuss early childhood reading interests and how that has influenced their writing today, what genres and styles inspire them and the other reasons why they read besides pleasure or craft. Amelia's piece which is shared on the podcast, "The Hidden Spirit of the Forest" is available in Meet me at 19th St available here: https://archstreetpress.org/2021/11/02/the-hidden-spirit-of-the-forest/. Questions How much has your childhood reading interests influenced the way you write or the topics you write about? How much have your reading habits changed since becoming a writer? Do you read more around the genres and styles you write in? Do you write in the style and genres you read in? Is this different to when you were younger/before you became a writer? We often hear how other writers inspire or influence other writers in a positive way, but what are some things that you have read where you have thought "I never want to write like that" and learnt what not to do? Besides pleasure and improvement of your craft (which are some of the reasons I read) what are some other reasons you read? As a follow up to #1, what are the other ways reading has improved your creative practice besides the writing itself? (related to your question #2)?

This episode we look at a popular book from the early 2000's, The Namesake, by Jhumpa Lahiri, and the film adaptation directed by Mira Nair. This story examines what it means to be caught between two homes and two cultures, and how the experiences of second generation immigrants can differ from their parents. But don't worry, we also keep it light and discuss awkward sexual tensions, crazy ex girlfriends, and unconvincing age differences between parents and children.

Our guest this week is writer Jhumpa Lahiri. Her debut short story collection, Interpreter of Maladies, earned Lahiri a Pulitzer Prize in 2000. Many short story collections followed, as well as novels like The Namesake, which was the basis of a 2006 film directed by Mira Nair. Lahiri now translates and produces her own work in Italian too. On October 13, 2023, Jhumpa Lahiri came to the Sydney Goldstein Theater in San Francisco to talk to Peter Stein about her latest collection, Roman Stories - which centers around Rome, not as a setting, but as a protagonist. Translated from Italian, the stories capture Rome as both a metropolis and a monument, multi-faceted and metaphysical, suspended between past and future – and prove that Lahiri is now master of form in her adopted language.

Roman Stories, the new collection of short stories by Jhumpa Lahiri, captures the tensions of a rapidly-changing Rome, Italy. In today's episode, Lahiri speaks with NPR's Leila Fadel about how growing up as the daughter of immigrants in the U.S. and later moving to Italy as an adult has complicated ideas of home and belonging for her – and how ultimately, home might be of a mental state rather than a physical place.
In Roman Stories Jhumpa Lahiri translates her own writing from Italian in a feat of language and a love and connection to Rome itself. Lahiri joins us to talk about the role of a translator in literature, language and identity, exophonic authors and more with Miwa Messer, host of Poured Over. This episode of Poured Over was hosted by Executive Producer Miwa Messer and mixed by Harry Liang. New episodes land Tuesdays and Thursdays (with occasional Saturdays) here and on your favorite podcast app. Featured Books (Episode): Roman Stories by Jhumpa Lahiri Interpreter of Maladies by Jhumpa Lahiri The Namesake by Jhumpa Lahiri Translating Myself and Others by Jhumpa Lahiri Trick by Domenico Starnone Metamorphoses by Ovid
Five talented narrators join forces to deliver a nuanced performance of Jhumpa Lahiri's new collection of short stories. Host Jo Reed and AudioFile's Emily Connelly discuss this collection written originally in Italian, the author's third language, and translated into English. The contemplative and elegant stories revolve around outsiders drawn to the City of Light. The mix of voices - Indian subcontinent, mid-American, British-African, Italian-American - highlights the atmosphere of displacement. Their voices create a tapestry of a story, weaving together these very different lives of those who live and long to belong in Rome. Read the full review of the audiobook on AudioFile's website.

Kathryn Tickell and The Darkening's new album, Cloud Horizons, fuses synthesizers with a bone flute, a sistrum – very old Egyptian instrument - and lyrics based on an inscription in Latin carved on a stone in Northumberland nearly 2 millennia ago. Kathryn talks to Samira about this ancient Northumbrian futurism and plays her smallpipes, live. We remember the film director Terrence Davis, perhaps best known for the film Distant Voices, who has died aged 77. Samira spoke to him for Front Row last year, about his Netflix drama Benediction, which followed the life of the war poet Siegfried Sassoon. Samira talks to Jhumpa Lahiri, the Pulitzer Prize winning novelist, essayist and editor. Her latest offering Roman Stories marks a return to shorter fiction, presenting snapshots of a city and its unnamed residents in flux. Today the Heritage Fund announces nine ‘Heritage Places' across the UK- the first of twenty to receive a share of £200 million in National Lottery funding over the next 10 years to support local heritage. We hear from Eilish McGuinness, Heritage Fund Chief Executive about how the money will be spent and from Eirwen Hopkins, founder of the heritage group Rich History in Neath Port Talbot, one of the nine places to receive the cash injection. Presenter: Samira Ahmed Producer: Olivia Skinner
