The Spine Crackers return from their...well uh...extended break with a discussion of John Barth's 1982 metafictional romance of espionage, family, love, and death Sabbatical! Back again soon we promise.

Bookwaves/Artwaves is produced and hosted by Richard Wolinsky. Links to assorted local theater & book venues   John Barth (1930-2024) John Barth (1930-2024), who died on April 2, 2024 at the age of 93, was America's leading writer of metafictional and post-modern fiction. This interview was conducted by Richard Wolinsky and Richard A. Lupoff on November 12, 2001 in the KPFA studios, while on the book tour for the novel Coming Soon. John Barth began to receive notice for his two earliest novels, The Floating Opera and End of the Road in the late 1950s, but burst on the scene with his epic comic novel about colonial life in Maryland, The Sot-Weed Factor, and his allegory of the Cold War, set on a university campus, Giles Goat-Boy. His short story collection, Lost in the Funhouse and novella collection Chimera cemented his reputation as a writer of meta-fiction, as the stories zoom back on themselves and on the writing of those stories. From Wikipedia: “In his epistolary novel LETTERS (1979), Barth corresponds with characters from his other books. Later novels such as The Tidewater Tales (1987) and The Last Voyage of Somebody the Sailor (1991) continue in the metafictional vein, using writers as protagonists who interact with their own and other stories in elaborate ways. His 1994 Once Upon a Time: A Floating Opera casts Barth himself as the protagonist who on a sailing trip encounters characters and situations from previous works.” After the 2001 interview, he continued to work in the same vein with a triptych of novellas, Where Three Roads Meet in 2005, interrelated short stories set in a retirement community, The Development: Nine Stories in 2008, and Every Third Thought: A Novel in Five Seasons in 2011. A, book of collected stories was released in 2015 and Postscripts (or Just Desserts): Some Final Scribbling came out in 2022. This interview was both the last interview conducted with Richard Lupoff as co-host, and the final interview recorded and edited on analog tape. This program was digitized and edited in July 2024 by Richard Wolinsky. Complete 46-minute Interview   Lorrie Moore is a celebrated short story writer and novelist.

Why does this press call itself unnamed, how has it succeeded and what are the challenges of being an independent press? Along with asking about the role of multimedia, the vision of challenging the status quo and how the impact of published books is measured, those were the opening questions posed by Michael Krasny to publisher Chris Heiser. A dialogue followed related to the publishing of poetry and the importance of how a book looks and feels and Chris Heiser spoke of bookcases as embodiments of personal histories. A discussion of social media, marketing and book selling challenges then moved forward along with a question from Michael Krasny about a series from Unnamed Press on contemporary women's writing and what Chris Heiser believes the effects Artificial Intelligence will have on the book business and recent actions toward book censorship. What followed was a discussion of five unnamed books Chris Heiser felt were "truly representative" of the literary press he runs, including the classic imprint of an Edith Wharton novel and four other books all, as Michael Krasny pointed out, by academic authors with PhD degrees. Krasny then brought up the essential importance for readers of engagement and the size of different genres as well as John Barth's declaring the death of the novel. Heiser spoke of the diluting power over books of other media, whereupon Krasny asked him what it means to be literary and a rich conversation followed about the role of the reader. This vital and deeply informed and informative conversation concluded with Krasny asking about the role of translation, the influence on Heiser of Gabriel Garcia Marquez and how and why Heiser sought out a career in publishing.

Description: In this special episode, we welcome Barnard College professor and accomplished author, Jennifer Finney Boylan, back to the show to discuss her latest labor of love, her book Cleavage, which examines the divisions – as well as the common ground – between the genders, and reflects on her experiences, both difficult and joyful, as a transgender American. Jenny discusses the importance that things like nuance,imagination, patience, empathy and understanding hold in our divided world, reflecting on her experiences as a transgender woman and noting that for many, “living your best life is not necessarily a political decision, but a matter of life and death.” The ultimate thing she wants, Jenny says, is just to be left alone, to live her life and to be free. Segments Bless & Release: Gender stereotypes *** Thought-provoking Quotes: Conversations about trans-women in sports are complicated and demand nuance, patience, and imagination. For us to be defined by the most difficult and controversial aspects of our existence is really unfair. – Jennifer Finney Boylan I'm not a woman with an asterisk. At 66 ½ years old, my life has a lot more in common with other women my age than you would think. My life does not revolve around me trying to sneak into your daughter's soccer game. My life revolves around my family, and reading, and teaching my students, and working in the garden, and things that I hope would seem very familiar to people. – Jennifer Finney Boylan These are hard times. But we do know that hard times come and hard times go. And, whatever this moment is, is not forever. Although I can't underestimate exactly how hard it is to be singled out by the President of the United States as a person who specifically is not deserving of love or respect or basic human kindness. – Jennifer Finney Boylan Nobody goes from male to female in hopes of getting a better deal. – Jennifer Finney Boylan I hope people will pick up and read Cleavage not because they want to understand more about the trans business but because they want to know what sorts of choices people can make when they feel that the world is against them and there is no room for them. I have found, against all odds, that there is room for me, that I have been loved, and, on a good day, the world is full of joy and humor. – Jennifer Finney Boylan Resources Mentioned in This Episode: Cleavage: Men, Women, and the Space Between Us by Jennifer Finney Boylan  Mad Honey: A GMA Book Club Pick: A Novel by Jennifer Finney Boylan Roxane Gay She's Not There: A Life in Two Genders by Jennifer Finney Boylan Jennifer Finney Boylan's New York Times articles - https://www.nytimes.com/column/jennifer-finney-boylan I Am Cait (Caitlin Jenner Show) - https://tv.apple.com/us/show/i-am-cait/umc.cmc.38b55qpveo4xdxypnk03xfvmp Torrey Peters - https://www.torreypeters.com/ Kate Bornstein - http://katebornstein.com/ Trans Bodies Trans Selves: a Resource Guide for the Transgender Community - http://transbodies.com/ John Barth - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/John_Barth Ben Hatmaker's marathon post - https://www.instagram.com/p/DGI6wt2OyBL/?utm_source=ig_web_copy_link&igsh=MzRlODBiNWFlZA== Cleavage Tour Schedule - https://us.macmillan.com/tours/jennifer-finney-boylan-cleavage/ Guest's Links: Jenny's website - https://jenniferboylan.net/  Jenny's Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/jenniferfinneyboylan Jenny's Twitter - https://x.com/JennyBoylan Jenny's Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/JenniferFinneyBoylan/ Jenny's Medium - https://medium.com/@jennyboylan_97964  Connect with Jen!

In questa puntata di Alice andiamo a Bellach vicino a Soletta per incontrare Peter Bichsel. Classe 1935, originario di Olten, con le sue rubriche uscite per trent'anni sulla Schweizer Illustrierte e con i suoi numerosi racconti è tra le voci più autentiche e tra le penne più brillanti del nostro panorama letterario svizzero. È lui a dirci che la letteratura non è responsabile per la salvezza del mondo ma ha il potere di unire le persone. Vale senz'altro per la grande letteratura, quella di Bichsel, delle sue storie brevi come quella della Signora Blum e del lattaio, o della poiana che dà anche il titolo alla raccolta uscita per Casagrande. E vale per Paul Celan che ritroviamo nel carteggio con Gustav Chomed raccolto nella pubblicazione di FinisTerrae curata da Anna Ruchat che Moira Bubola intervista per Alice e vale anche per John Barth e Il coltivatore del Maryland considerato una tra le opere più importanti del secondo Novecento e tra le massime espressioni della letteratura postmoderna. Francesca Rodesino ne parla con l'anglista Luca Briasco.undefinedundefinedundefined

Po raz czwarty zapraszam Państwa na spotkanie z Johnem Barthem. Tym razem prezentuję drugą jego książkę - "Koniec drogi" (1958). przekład

Cat Rambo lives, writes, and edits in the American Midwest. Their work has appeared in such places as Asimov's, Weird Tales, and Strange Horizons. They were the fiction editor of award-winning Fantasy Magazine (http://www.fantasy-magazine.com) and appeared on the World Fantasy Award ballot in 2012 for that work. Their story "Five Ways to Fall in Love on Planet Porcelain" was a 2012 Nebula Award finalist. John Barth described Cat Rambo's writings as "works of urban mythopoeia" -- their stories take place in a universe where chickens aid the lovelorn, Death is just another face on the train, and Bigfoot gives interviews to the media on a daily basis. They has worked as a programmer-writer for Microsoft and a Tarot card reader, professions which, they claim, both involve a certain combination of technical knowledge and willingness to go with the flow. In 2005 she attended the Clarion West Writers' Workshop.

Dama z podkastu Znalezione Przeczytane i niżej podpisany Gentleman, LAUREACI LITERATURY, POEZJI I SZTUKI WSZELAKICH zapraszają do wysłuchania wyjątkowej rozmowy, którą mieli okazję odbyć w podróży.(00:15) Miłe złego początki, czyli fragment, gdzie Laureaci usiłują zacząć nagrywać, ale wiele dzieje się wokół i nie wychodzi im to. Łaskawie upraszają o życzliwość PT Słuchaczy, gdy wprowadzają na orbitę poznawczą - Wspaniałą Prowincję Maryland(06:10) Rozmowa zmierza do przedstawienia prawdy o dwóch utworach "The Sot Weed Factor", a napisanych przez dwóch AUtorów, a (z)referowanych przez licznych NARRAtorów. Wspominają także Pana Sławomira Magalę, który napisał tę ksiażkę na nowo po polsku, który powinien za to dostać Orła Białego jak nic, bo nie można wykluczyć, że zrobił to lepiej niż Barth. (14:10) Laureaci próbują ustalić, czy jest to powieść historyczna czy histeryczna, ale przy okazji interesuje ich wiele różnych i bardzo przyziemnych spraw. (26:15) Zostaje wprowadzony świat przedstawiony, w szczególności piękne i wesołe kolonie brytyjskie. Miejsca pełne szarmu i sprawiedliwości, piratów, przemytników oraz - literalnie - burdeli na kółkach. (40:00) Laureaci rozmawiają o demitologizacji historii (której nie znają), autoironii i humorze i dowcipie (którego są pozbawieni) oraz o Henrym Burlinghamie III, które to rozważana prowadzą do wniosków na temat prywatności, RODO-SRODO i okolic. (48:00) Twórczość i psotmodernizm mają swoje pięć minut, kiedy Laureaci Literatury stają się Laureatami Poezji (bardziej niż zwykle). Wspominają też Homera, ale na szczęście krótko. Przypominają również wielce szanownego rycerza Don Kichote oraz jego Wiernego Sługę. Laureatka, wspomina takoż o nawiązaniach do tradycji hamerykańskiej, która dla Laureata jest mocno odległa. (55:00) Fragment, gdzie Laureat okazuje się Abnegatem, a Lauretka - Laureatką. Co okazuje się w rozmowach na tematy różne. No i w końcu pojawia się również Pocahontas! (70:00) Laureaci żegnają się, ale - podobnie jak James Bond - powrócą wkrótce. Rozmawiają też o planach czytelniczych i obiecują tyle, ile tylko mogą. (72:00) Pamięci Ebena Cooke'a, Poety i Laureata Prowincji Maryland. Cześć jego pamięci!Bostońska herbatka 250 lat później @Podkast Amerykański John Barth OPOWIADAĆ DALEJ Spotify | Apple

In honor of two recent John Barth reissues—The Sot-Weed Factor and Chimera, both Dalkey Archive Essentials—John Domini (The Archeology of a Good Ràgu, The Color Inside a Melon, and this appreciation of Barth, among other works) and Max Besora (author of the intro to Sot-Weed Factor along with the very much Barth inspired The Adventures and Misadventures of the Extraordinary and Admirable Joan Orpí, Conquistador and Founder of New Catalonia) joined Chad W. Post to talk about these two titles and Barth's overall impact on the literary scene. It's a long, interesting conversation with a Spanish superfan and a former student of Barths. Well worth the listen! The music on this episode is "Say It Isn't So" by The Sot Weed Factor. (Who knew this existed??)

Inside John Barth

What makes a good podcast host? That's a question many of us ask! What gives a Podcast its "hostiness" and makes you want to come back for more again and again?“There's almost nothing about hosting and really by implication producing and that, that quality – I did not coin the term 'hostiness,' that comes from I believe PRX many years ago – but it's, it's this ineffable quality that makes us go 'oh, I love listening to Ira Glass,' or Jad Abumrad of Radio Lab, or Anna Sale, or Brené Brown, or whoever we connect with, and different people obviously connect with different hosts. But what is that makes us connect?”-- Elaine Appleton GrantMy next guest has actually been on this podcast before. She's an award-winning journalist, audio producer, and on-air talent who worked for three NPR affiliates before founding Podcast Allies, LLC in 2019. She hosts the podcast Sound Judgment, a master study in great podcast hosting, and I'm certainly honored to have her here. In fact, you might have heard her review of this podcast read out on a recent show. Her show features today's best hosts, and producers, including Glynn Washington, host of Snap Judgment, John Barth, founding producer of Marketplace, Ann Bogel of What Should I Read Next, and Stephanie Wittels Wachs of Last Day. Her production company, Podcast Allies, develops narrative and conversation podcasts for social impact organizations, such as the Environmental Defense Fund and the American Academy of Pediatrics, so her background in audio is pretty extensive.Her name is Elaine Appleton Grant, and I'm looking forward to getting her take on what she feels makes a good podcast and a great host. With all the interesting people she's interviewed, she's bound to have a very informed opinion.As always, if you have questions for my guest, you're welcome to reach out through the links in the show notes. If you have questions for me, visit www.audiobrandingpodcast.com where you'll find a lot of ways to get in touch. Plus, subscribing to the newsletter will let you know when the new podcasts are available.

Both those things really help – and I'd love to feature your review on future podcasts. You can leave one either in written or in voice format from the podcast's main page. I would so appreciate that. The Voice of GodAs we start the episode off, the discussion turns straight to podcasting, its storytelling strengths, and the powerful role it plays in audio branding. We talk about her work with John Barth, developer of the famous Moth Radio Hour, and Elaine and I discuss audio trends in everything from television commercials to movie trailers, and how modern audiences have outgrown the classic "voice of God" Hollywood voice-overs. As Elaine puts it, "it's like the end of the newscaster voice." Ways to Get AttentionOur conversation continues with a look at how multi-tasking and our always-on-the-go lifestyle have changed the tone and purpose of advertising. "We're all trying to find ways to get attention," she says. "There are effective ways, there are good ways, there are ways with integrity, and there are ways that you and I might argue are less so." We talk about how this very podcast got its start and the audio trends, both good and not-so-good, that helped inspire its focus on sonic branding. An Ineffable QualityElaine tells us about the start of her podcast Sound Judgment and her search for the true meaning of “hostiness,” a word she borrowed from Jay Bear to describe that perfect chemistry with a host that brings the...

The series explores the case of Leo Schofield, a man convicted of murder in a gross miscarriage of justice. King, the Pulitzer Prize-winning author of Devil in the Grove, and Decker, a producer with a background in sociology and oral history, came together in a four-year quest to peel back the layers of Schofield's case, uncovering startling new evidence and chilling confessions that are a call to action for long-awaited justice and redemption.Takeaways from Gilbert King and Kelsey Decker1. Does your idea need to be told in audio? Bone Valley did.  As storytellers, we have many formats to choose from. So how do you know when your idea is well-suited to audio, versus a book, a film, or a video? As an author, King's first instinct was to write a longform article about Leo Schofield's case. But as soon as he and Decker talked with Leo, they realized that the story begged for audio. “The power of their voices made us pivot,” King says. “I don't think they would have been the same in print. I love the way their voices break and crackle and emote.”2. Start with a sound visionSecond, you may have noticed that King and Decker had a pretty clear “sound vision” for Bone Valley. I always remember producer John Barth saying, in episode 2, “You have to have a distinctive sound vision.” When he develops a new show, he imagines the kind of listener he wants to attract. That determines what the show needs to sound like. In Bone Valley, the two producers made sure to simply lay out fact after fact, so the listener couldn't escape the conclusion or emotion. They used both sound design and language to create a work of narrative nonfiction and made sure not to sensationalize or cheapen the story. Furthermore, Decker could hear how the narration should sound in her head. She and other  producers directed King to voice the narration to match that sound. And sound designer Britt Spangler attended story conferences – and helped shape the scripts from the start.3. Podcasts are a team sportGilbert King won a Pulitzer for his book Devil in the Grove. So you might imagine he had nothing else to learn as a writer. But he'd never done a podcast before. His early drafts were written for the page, with too much narration, and quotes, which don't work in audio. When he and Decker hooked up with the production company Lava for Good, he learned from their producers how to write for the ear. Subscribe to Sound Judgment, the NewsletterWant more of this kind of audio storytelling analysis?

The Six Biggest, Most Surprising or Useful Lessons our Hosts Identified in 20221. The host defines the brand of your show.2. Hosting changes the host—not just as a storyteller and performer, but as a human being. 3. Great performances are valuable, whether that's a million-dollar signature story in a keynote speech or the captivating storytelling and connection skills of a great host.  4. We must challenge unconscious bias about the kinds of voices that are perceived as acceptable. 5. Narrative isn't simply important, it's the way we experience the world, define our identities, and make meaning. Sharing stories builds empathy. When we revise our own stories, we change our lives. 6. To stand out from the competition, we need to constantly think of how to be "better than good," as Jay Baer puts it. BONUS: Podcasting is a team sport—not simply because of the variety of skills and tasks involved in producing a great show, but because collaboration with colleagues who make you feel safe enables courageous, vulnerable creativity. We will almost always do better work in collaboration than we will completely alone. The episode(s) discussed on today's Sound Judgment:The Host Defines the Brand with John Barth, Sound Judgment Ep. 2A Host on a Mission with Quien tu Eres host Pabel Martinez, Sound Judgment Ep. 6Finding Your Voice with Shelter in Place Host Laura Joyce Davis, Sound Judgment Ep. 5A "Yes, And" Approach to Cohosting with Pantsuit Politics, Sound Judgment Ep. 3Cinematic Storytelling with Crime Show's Emma Courtland, Sound Judgment Ep. 4The podcast Standing Ovation with host Jay Baer: A sneak peek of a Season 2 Sound Judgment episode The podcast Snap Judgment with host Glynn Washington: A sneak peek of Season 2, Episode 1, coming January 12, 2023Sound Judgment Ep. 1, “Emotional Bravery on Last Day with Stephanie Wittels Wachs”Subscribe to Sound Judgment, the Newsletter, our once- or twice-monthly newsletter about creative choices in audio storytelling.Captivate Your Listeners, Improve Your Hostiness and Grow Your Show in 2023!What's it like for you to face the blank page of your script – or that "blank tape" on the mic?

How to be a great host: John Barth's takeaways1. What is “hostiness?” This is where John shines as both a talent recruiter and a content developer. As he says, he's always looking for ‘the blue M&M” — “that special voice.” “It's a combination of very different factors. There's a likability in someone's voice or style. There's this innate sense that I'd really like to spend more time with them. There's also this range of curiosity and joy and versatility that comes across when you encounter hostiness. But it's that compelling nature, that if you saw them live on stage, you'd never want the show to end.” 2. Consistent sound matters, and improves with a good host-producer partnership.“Anybody who uses their voice professionally, you want to get to a consistent sound. If a good host can hear what makes them sound good in front of an audience, you want to implant that sound in their head. [As a host], after a while, you know your own range — and even on an off day, you can pull that out.” John's job as an executive producer? “Helping talent be the very best talent they could be behind a mic.”3. For a more natural and dynamic sound, talk about your passions before taping.  John coached a reporter who'd never before had voice coaching. “First, I let her talk about the story, about her passions. When people talk about their passions, they automatically get a bigger range. You hear more color in their voice. So then, when it came to reading a script, we would do it again and again. And I would listen for moments of passion…and hold up the mirror. After a while, you hear the joy come out.” And then, John says, they would rehearse that script again and again, going over the most difficult and most promising parts. Often, he would direct her, saying, “Take me back to that scene that you're describing and feel that in the sentence.” When they finished, she couldn't believe how great she sounded. “Sometimes, we just don't know what our own voice can do. And you need a coach, another pair of ears to say, ‘Ooh, that really did work.'”4. “We're not enthralled by copies. We're enthralled by originals.” “The goal is certainly to read the script, but your voice and style is loose enough that you can really bring some expression of life to it. There's nothing worse than sounding like Walter Cronkite with the forced intonation and forced pattern. That doesn't mean credibility.”5. A host defines the brand of the show. “When you're hiring a host, the host really does imprint their own sound, voice, and style on the show. So it actually begins to define the brand that you're creating. [On Marketplace] it took me a while to get to a host who embodied the sound that I heard from the show… There was an editorial vision, but there was also a sound vision. And it needed to be distinctive. I always imagined how the audience was listening to the show and the kind of listener I wanted to attract. So that had to be a certain sound.”6. How to prep before taping. “Our goal (at Marketplace)  was to laugh uproariously before we went into the studio to do the live show. So we would tell a funny joke or dirty joke; we would be really snarky in his (David Brancaccio's) office. My job was to get [David Brancaccio], as a host, not only loosened up, but comfortable with a real range of emotion. So by the time that mic went on, he could really bring his full self to whatever he had to do in those 30 minutes. I mean, it was so much fun.”7. What producers do “It's sort of like directing theater and being a writer and being a cat herder. And, you know, everything all at once. People have no idea what producers really do.” (Elaine) 8. Choose to learn storytelling from the very best — The MothWhen John first saw The Moth on stage, he went back to his boss at PRX, Jake Shapiro, and said, “We have just found our first hit.” He then became a key member of the team that developed The Moth Radio Hour. “The Moth knows probably more about hostiness than anyone. So if you think that storytelling is just getting somebody on a stage to tell their story into a mic, you don't appreciate what The Moth does to get to The Moth sound. Their  process is so respectful of finding not only the true story of the storyteller, but the voice of the storyteller and the hostiness of the storyteller.” 9. Just because we are accustomed to a conventional broadcast voice does not mean it remains relevant today. Experiment. [About the search for a host of Reveal and the choice to hire Al Letson]“What we needed for that show was a voice and a host who would help us redefine what investigative reporting would sound like. And that's why Al  was a natural choice for that job.”10. Bring your identity to your story, and be transparent about it. In Mississippi Goddamn, Al Letson and producer Jonathan Jones (J.J.), tell the listener where they were born, what their races are (Black and white) and where they have lived. “Most journalists are trained to remove themselves from the story,” John says. ‘But that's a false construct; you never really do.” Of course, he says, there are objective facts. “[And] it's your eyes, your ears, your notes… And then it's also layered by all the experiences that help you see what you see or what you notice or what you miss…It's a false neutrality [to remove oneself from the story], because we're all individuals…It's rare to hear this acknowledged so plainly, but it really does need to happen that way, especially in a story like this.”More about John BarthToday, John Barth runs his own firm, Creative Media LLC. He does talent recruitment and content development for clients in public media, news and social impact. He also coaches people in their media careers. For 16 years, John was the Chief Content Officer of PRX, named by Fast Company magazine as one of the Top 10 Most Innovative media companies. He led the design and launch of Reveal with The Center for Investigative Reporting and The Moth Radio Hour, both Peabody Award winners.

A reading of a story

The scope of women's political history is so vast that it can't be covered by one podcast. This week Amended host Laura Free introduces a special episode from And Nothing Less, a seven-part series from the Women's Suffrage Centennial Commission and PRX. This episode is more than a story about women's rights. It's a story about civil rights. And women like Ida B. Wells and Mary Church Terrell understood that the suffrage fight was as much about race as it was gender. Hosts Rosario Dawson and Retta speak with some great guests you'll recognize from Amended—like Martha Jones and Lisa Tetrault—and some you haven't met yet—like Michelle Duster, great-great granddaughter of Ida B. Wells, and historians Alison Parker and Marjorie Spruill. Visit amendedpodcast.com for a transcript of this episode.

In this episode, Chris, Hans, and I discuss John Barth's The Sot-Weed Factor, an epic tale that might be an historical novel, a satire of an historical novel, or both. It's witty and hilarious, but also serious and touching. Check it out.

This show will highlight the disability community. We will talk with people involved in local and statewide work to promote inclusion, mentoring, health and employment opportunities for people with disabilities in Indiana. Our guests are Christine Dahlberg, Executive Director of Indiana Governor's Council for People with Disabilities , Emily Munson is a Governor's Council spokesperson and John Barth from Managed Health Services.

A few years ago we read a John Barth story collection (On With the Story) that Mike enjoyed and Tom did not. So this week Mike's making Tom read one of Barth's most-loved short stories to see if he can turn him into a fan. Also: We talk about other artists we took a while to warm up to, and listener-submitted stories of second chances. For more, visit us online at bookfightpod.com. 

Michial Farmer talks with David Grubbs and Nathan Gilmour about John Barth's articles "The Literature of Exhaustion" and "The Literature of Replenishment" along with his short story "Title."

This week, I interview my friend, the fiction writer Chad Benson, who also happens to be a rock musician called Quinn W. Shagbark, plus Jesse Duthrie talks about John Barth's The Floating Opera. TEXTS DISCUSSED [vimeo http://vimeo.com/61609421] NOTES If you are writing in Denver, check out the Lighthouse Writer's Workshop. Read about Quinn W. Shagbark in Slate. On Tuesday, August 13th, at Urban ReThink in downtown Orlando, I will read with JOSEFINE KLOUGART, DAN LAUER, & DREW JOHNSON in Jesse Bradley's series, There Will Be Words, which was just named the best reading series in Orlando by Orlando Weekly. Two days later, I will be reading an art-inspired piece in this event:

Tom hates metafiction. Mike tries to get him to love it, or at least appreciate it, using John Barth's 1996 collection On With the Story, linked stories that play a number of narrative games and call attention to how stories work, and how we expect them to work. We also talk about about the false dichotomy of sad stories vs happy stories, and why Tom's students want him to cheer the hell up.
