Jérôme Colin et Miguel Allo traversent les États-Unis d'Est en Ouest. De New York à Los Angeles. Une quinzaine d'états à parcourir pour prendre la température de ce pays plus divisé que jamais. Musique, littérature, road trip semé de rencontres, ils rendront compte chaque jour en radio et sur le web de l'ambiance américaine à quelques jours seulement du scrutin du 5 novembre 2024. Chaque état traversé sera l'occasion pour eux de pointer un grand roman américain se déroulant dans la région. Sixième étape : La Louisiane : « La Conjuration des imbéciles » de John Kennedy Toole. John Kennedy Toole n'a écrit que deux romans, le premier à seize ans, la Bible de Néon, le second, La Conjuration des imbéciles, qui lui demandera près de dix ans de travail. Une fois le livre fini, il cherche à le faire éditer mais se voit opposer refus sur refus. Il finit par se suicider en 1969 à 31 ans, dans le garage de la maison de sa mère croyant être un écrivain raté. Alors qu'elle range ses affaires, sa maman tombe sur le manuscrit de la Conjuration. Tenace, elle tente de le faire lire à des professeurs d'université de la région et l'un d'eux, Walker Percy, va tomber sous le charme du livre et trouver un éditeur. Dix ans après la mort de John Kennedy Toole en 1980, la Conjuration des imbéciles est publiée et obtient le prix Pulitzer de la fiction, devenant un immense succès de librairie. Sublime et tragique dans « La Conjuration des imbéciles ». On suit donc un étonnant personnage Ignatius Reilly. Nous sommes en 1963. Ignatius est rondouillard, pantalon en tweed, casquette de chasseur sur le crâne. Il suit des études de littérature médiévale. Il est brillant. Ignatius, un génie presque. Mais il ne comprend rien aux règles sociales du monde dans lequel il vit. Monde qu'il déteste totalement, sans nuances. Tellement d'ailleurs que son anneau pylorique lui fait mal à chaque contrariété. Il déteste le monde, mais il déteste surtout l'époque dans laquelle il vit. Du coup, il méprise tout et tout le monde Les beatniks, les flics, les cathos, les activistes, même sa vieille maman un brin alcoolo chez qui il vit encore. Et ce gars-là, pas conforme au monde, va devoir pour la première fois chercher du travail et donc s'insérer dans un système social. Et ça ne va pas être rien. Il deviendra vendeur de hot-dogs et bossera dans les usines de jeans Levis. Je ne vous dis rien sur sa tentative de putsch en interne avec un calicot taché fait avec son drap de lit. Sa rencontre avec le monde sera terrible et hilarante. Celle avec Mirna, une jeune fille qui lui plait quand même un peu, même s'il ne veut pas l'avouer et quant à elle, spectaculaire. Un roman humoristique et profond qui raconte une époque, les années 60, mais aussi une ville, La Nouvelle-Orléans, qui a offert à ce personnage de fiction sa statue en plein centre-ville.

durée : 00:39:59 - Les Nuits de France Culture - par : Mathilde Wagman - Un Don Quichotte contemporain "made in USA" ? Pourtant, le roman "La Conjuration des imbéciles", devenu culte, n'a pas été publié du vivant de son auteur, John Kennedy Toole, qui s'est suicidé en 1969. Finalement édité en 1980, grâce à sa mère, il remporte le prix Pulitzer en 1981, à titre posthume. - réalisation : Virginie Mourthé - invités : Jacques-Pierre Amette

John Kennedy Toole's novel A Confederacy of Dunces is internationally revered for having captured the essence and eccentricity of New Orleans — and for introducing readers to its larger-than-life protagonist, Ignatius J. Reilly. On this week's show, we take a culinary look between the pages of the book that was posthumously awarded the Pulitzer Prize for fiction in 1981. We begin with Spud McConnell, well known for his portrayal of Ignatius on stage. The Gonzales-born actor has become so recognized for his embodiment of the role, that the statue of the portly protagonist, which is located on a sidewalk in front of the old D.H. Holmes building on Canal Street, was modeled after him. Then, we speak with Cynthia LeJeune Nobles, who examined food as a character in the novel, compiling recipes for her gastronomical homage to Ignatius, A Confederacy of Dunces Cookbook. Cynthia spent 18 months engrossed in the novel, and like Spud, developed a personal relationship with Ignatius and his world — jelly doughnuts and all. From there, we venture through the streets of the French Quarter to a Lucky Dog hot dog cart, which served as the setting for one of the most memorable — and gluttonous — moments in the novel. Lucky Dog's owner, Jerry Strahan, is the author of Managing Ignatius: The Lunacy of Lucky Dogs and Life in the Quarter. He discusses his iconic business and its legendary employees. Finally, we wash it all down with Ignatius's favorite local soft drink: Dr. Nut. Having disappeared from grocery shelves decades ago, the beverage is as enigmatic as Ignatius himself. Designer Phillip Collier, the author of Making New Orleans, sheds some light on the mysterious Dr. Nut and provides us with an alcoholic version that he believes closely resembles the original recipe.

EPISODE #1094 HISTORICAL RABBIT HOLES PT. 1 Richard welcomes historian, author Donald Jeffries who takes another deep dive down the historical rabbit holes with American Memory Hole: How the Court Historians Promote Disinformation. You will discover how cancel culture was born during the administration of Franklin D. Roosevelt. And how U.S. interventionist foreign policy was established during the Woodrow Wilson presidency. Jeffries documents the tragically common atrocities committed by US troops, beginning with the Mexican-American War, which became official policy under the “total war” and “scorched earth” strategy of Abraham Lincoln's bloodthirsty generals. He recounts the shocking abuses of our military forces, in countries like Mexico, Haiti, the Philippines, and elsewhere. GUEST: Donald Jeffries has been a JFK assassination researcher since the mid-1970s. His first novel, "The Unreals," was published in 2007. His first nonfiction book, "Hidden History: An Expose of Modern Crimes, Conspiracies, and Cover-Ups in American Politics," was released by Skyhorse Publishing in November 2014 and quickly became a best-seller. The paperback edition featured a new Foreword from Roger Stone. His writing has been compared to Voltaire by award-winning author Alexander Theroux, and likened to Rudyard Kipling and John Kennedy Toole's "A Confederacy of Dunces" by "Night at the Museum" screenwriter Robert Ben Garant. Jeffries' second nonfiction book, "Survival of the Richest" was released to universal critical acclaim in July 2017. His next book, "Crimes and Cover Ups in American Politics: 1776-1963" will be released in May 2019.

"El comprador de aniversario" de Adolfo García Ortega (Seix Barral) ha sido el libro elegido por nuestro bibliotecario Antonio Martínez Asensio para entrar esta semana en La Biblioteca de Hoy por Hoy. La novela cuenta el infierno de Auschwitz a través de la vida de Hurbínek, un niño que nació y murió con tres años en el campo de concentración. El autor le da una vida a este niño y le crea otras vidas que pudo tener de haber podido sobrevivir. Es un libro necesario para no banalizar lo que fue un horror y para no estar despistados porque , aunque hayan pasado casi 80 ños del final del infierno, Auschwitz sigue estando muy cerca. Además de este libro hoy se produjeron otras entradas en  La Biblioteca. Las dos primeras de Miguel Delibes "El camino" y "Los santos inocentes". También "Volver a dónde" de Antonio Muñoz Molina, dos de George Orwell "El escritor  la política" y "la corrupción del lenguaje". De Primo Levi entra "La tregua" que fue la que inspiró a Adolfo García Ortega para "El comprador de aniversarios" que a su vez nos ha donado otros dos libros "La conjura de los necios" de John Kennedy Toole y el "Ulises" de James Joyce. Como novedades han entrado "el prrimer Unamuno" de Luis García Jambrina y "Teatro" de Yasmina Reza. El libro perdido encontrado por Pacual Donate fue "¿Por qué Schoenberg?" de Harvey Sachs. Y por último "Clarisa " de Stefan Zweig que será el libro que lleva Antonio Martínez Asensio a su programa "Un libro, una hora" 

La conjura de los necios (A Confederacy of Dunces, 1980) de John Kennedy Toole es una novela humorística, que fue publicada once años después de la muerte de su autor. En este libro conocemos a Ignatius J. Reilly un hombre excéntrico e inmenso, físicamente y de carácter, que nunca es visto sin su peculiar gorro de cacería verde. Ignatius cree que el mundo moderno está moralmente en bancarrota y adora disertar sobre la época medieval. Sin embargo, sus ambiciones intelectuales se interrumpen cuando se ve en la necesidad de enfrentar su miedo más profundo: un empleo.   Acompáñanos en este episodio para descubrir de qué trata este libro y qué tiene de bueno y de malo.

We discuss the life and times of John Kennedy Toole (1937-1969), the influential author behind the classic novel, A Confederacy of Dunces. We're joined by independent writer Dan Baltic, who teaches us some of the lessons he has learned from Toole's life and career.Dive into the captivating world of A Confederacy of Dunces, as we discuss the book's main character, Ignatius J Riley; learn how Toole's persistence (or lack thereof) serves as a cautionary tale for contemporary independent writers; as well as the parallels between Toole's struggles and Dan's rise as an independent author on the internet. Dan shares his experience building an audience on Twitter, publishing his first novel, and the lessons he's learned himself.We try to unlock the strategies and goals of dissident writers, and how independent authors like Dan are able to make a living and continue producing great art. We'll discuss the pros and cons of traditional publishing deals, vs. the world of independent publishing.Chapters:(0:03:46) - Toole's "A Confederacy of Dunces"(0:15:45) - John Kennedy Tool's Life and Work(0:29:40) - Persistence and Patience for Writers(0:33:21) - Navigating the Confusion of Independent Publishing(0:43:02) - Building a Twitter Audience for Success(0:48:34) - Unlocking Twitter for Independent Writers(1:02:17) - Success for Independent Writers(1:13:09) - Lessons for Starting a ProjectDan Baltic:Twitter - https://twitter.com/baltic_danNUTCRANKR - https://terrorhousepress.com/product/nutcrankr/Other Life✦ Subscribe to the coolest free newsletter in the world and I'll send you all of my private book highlights. https://otherlife.coIndieThinkers.org✦ If you're working on independent projects, join the next cohort of https://IndieThinkers.org

Is it possible to choose only the best books to read?In April 2023 we reviewed 5 books on this channel. For some crazy reason both Juan and I just read bangers this month. It could be somewhat predicted as I revisited two authors who are probably in my top 10 writers. Juan was also reading to prepare himself for his baby girl so was also focused intently on trying to get good information.A big thanks to Alwin from Conshax for supporting.

American Literature Snap Shot Series Ch.1 Only…10th Grade Class Discussion Guide

When a true genius appears in the world, you may know him by this sign, that the dunces are all in confederacy against him.'A Confederacy Of Dunces' by John Kennedy Toole is a picaresque novel of a fat delusional man named Ignatius J. Reilly. He is a bombastic rogue living in a corrupt world and is forced to get a job by his domineering mother. His interactions with other zany characters progressively decline and become more and more outlandish.I summarised the book as follows. "Only a dunce would NOT find this funny. I only covered a couple of the anecdotes of the wonderful mishaps of Ignatius as they are numerous. Certainly is the type of person who is more fun in print than in real life. It lacks the deep cutting drive of something like Catch-22 but if you want a laugh I'd recommend this"I hope you have a fantastic day wherever you are in the world.

our louisiana module comes to a close with its third and final book: a confederacy of dunces by john kennedy toole. before we discuss the book, we learn about tulsa as "a state of mind" and finally unveil why original host bobby left the show. we discuss the interconnectedness to other books this module, whether or not we know any ingatius j. reilly types in real life, and whether it feels more or less new orleans and louisiana than the other books in this module. we wonder whether the new orleans accent truly sounds like a new jersey accent. tulsa offers joey a gross gift. we look ahead to future states, perspectives, and field trips. we share an important real-life food update, discuss "the valve" and dollar hot dog nights, and whine about the terrible kindle experience for this book. reading list for season four the moviegoer by walker percy all the king's men by robert penn warren a confederacy of dunces by john kennedy toole

The boys (sans Friedrich) wrap Season 3 by talking about the perfect capstone book: John Kennedy Toole's A Confederacy of Dunces. They take one last gander at form (picaresque? satire?), discuss Fortuna's wheel, and think through what it means to be a political and artistic outsider in the vein of Ignatius J. Reilly. They also talk localism and other weird political alignments that defy the usual American dichotomies. Theme Music: "Shostakovich," by Mucca Pazza

483. We talk to Tison Pugh about his Confederacy of Dunces article entitled, "Systemic Racism, Queer White Privilege, and the Carnivalesque Humor of John Kennedy Toole's A Confederacy of Dunces." "In the disparate circumstances facing his primary Black character, Burma Jones, and his primary gay White male character, Dorian Greene, Toole contrasts the imprisoning effects of systemic racism to the liberating pleasures of queer White privilege. Although humorists need not shy away from treating serious subjects irreverently, it is nonetheless instructive for readers to consider the variability of their efforts and the ways in which satiric impulses shift in light of the situations depicted. Toole's carnivalesque tropes, as they intersect with issues of race and homosexuality, expose the contrasting ways in which systemic racism and systemic heterosexism function within a primarily comic world, as well as their lasting repercussions both on his characters and on the wider culture."

No hay otra ciudad de Estados Unidos que albergue a personajes tan disparatados como Nueva Orleans. Desde el inepto policía que persigue criminales en donde no los hay, hasta la sociedad de homosexuales refinados que celebra tertulias desenfrenadas sin pudor, pasando por los trabajadores negros oprimidos por el capataz blanco, en La conjura de los necios vemos desfilar, como en un lienzo de Pieter Brueghel el Viejo o una película de Federico Fellini, a los distintos estamentos de la sociedad con todas sus contradicciones. Ninguno escapa del sarcasmo de John Kennedy Toole (1937-1969), quien, en sus escasos años de vida, trató de maquillar con risas la mueca dolorosa de una tragedia personal. Cuando reímos con las ridículas piruetas de Ignatius J. Reilly, en realidad reímos de nosotros mismos. En esta ocasión, en #culturamínima partimos en busca de la risa perdida... ¡Acompáñanos!

Fives Guys. A Confederacy of Dunces by John Kennedy Toole (1980) vs Interview with the Vampire by Anne Rice (1976).

FINGERSMITH by Sarah Waters & A CONFEDERACY OF DUNCES by John Kennedy Toole. This week, Toby takes a twisty ride with queer Victorian tricksters in Sarah Waters' astounding FINGERSMITH. Then, Bailey travels to the Big Easy with Ignatius J. Reilly, a bombastic character she won't soon forget. Plus, the hosts test how many times they can say "jambalaya" in one episode. Answer: more than necessary!

John Kennedy Toole es el autor elegido para el tercer episodio de GRANDES INFELICES, un podcast literario de Casa Blackie presentado y dirigido por el escritor Javier Peña (autor de “Agnes” e “Infelices”). La historia de Toole no es desconocida: cuando tenía 25 años escribió “La conjura de los necios”, la novela fue rechazada por varias editoriales y John, deprimido, se suicidó. Once años después de su muerte, su madre, Thelma, consiguió que la obra se publicase y en 1981 recibió el Premio Pulitzer de forma póstuma. Pero detrás de esta historia hay muchas incógnitas que Thelma Toole se empeñó en tapar: ¿cuál fue el motivo real del suicidio de John? ¿Cómo era la relación entre madre e hijo? ¿Cuánto hay de cierto en el rechazo editorial a La Conjura? ¿De dónde se sacó Toole al inolvidable personaje de Ignatius? En el nuevo capítulo de Grandes Infelices trataremos de darles una respuesta a todos estos interrogantes y a muchos otros sobre la triste historia de John Kennedy Toole.
