Bookwaves/Artwaves is produced and hosted by Richard Wolinsky. Links to assorted local theater & book venues   Susanna Clarke: “Jonathan Strange and Mr. Norrell.” Susanna Clarke in 2006 Susanna Clarke, author of the classic fantasy novel, Jonathan Strange & Mr. Norrell, interviewed September 12, 2005 in the KPFA studios. ​​​​​Back in the fall of 2004, a new fantasy novel, Jonathan Strange and Mr. Norrell by a newcomer, Susannah Clarke, became an instant classic, finding its way to best-seller lists in the U.K. and United.States, and winning the Hugo Award for 2004's best novel at the 2005  World Science Fiction Convention. This interview with Susannah Clarke was recorded while on tour for the paperback edition of Jonathan Strange and Mr. Norrell, and has not aired in two decades. Both Christopher Hampton and Julian Fellowes took stabs at writing a film adaptation of Jonathan Strange and Mr. Norrell, but both were unable to translate the very long novel into a screenplay, and then New Line cancelled the project. It was eventually developed into a seven -part miniseries for the BBC, and aired in both the United States and Britain in 2015. It is now streaming on Amazon Prime. After the publication of Jonathan Strange and Mr. Norrell, and the awards, Susannah Clarke continued to work on the sequel, set in the same universe a few years later, but became bogged down, almost sentence by sentence, as chronic fatigue syndrome took its toll. By 2015, after visiting the set of the BBC production, she decided to go another route, and went back to another manuscript that likely pre-dated her best-seller. That novel, Piranesi, was published to mostly favorable reviews in 2020. She is now working on a third novel. Complete Interview.   Dawn Porter Dawn Porter, documentary filmmaker, in conversation with host Richard Wolinsky, recorded September 11, 2023. Dawn Porter's work has appeared on ESPN, HBO, Netflix, PBS and other streamers. Her film Trapped, focusing on abortion clinics in the South, won a special prize at Sundance in 2016 along with a Peabody Award. Her 2013 documentary, Gideon's Army, her first film, focusing on public defender attorneys in the South, is now part of the US Deparment of State's American Film Showcase. She is also the director of John Lewis: Good Trouble, which focuses on the late Congressman and activist. Her recent projects are The Lady Bird Diaries, which was shown at SXSW Film Festival and the four part documentary series, Deadlocked: How America Shaped the Supreme Court, both of which can be found streaming on various platforms. Other recent projects include the short film Bree Wayy, about the life of Brionna Taylor, Luther: Never Too Much, about the late singer/songwriter Luther Vandross, and The Sing Sing Chronicles, about men wrongly incarcerated in Sing Sing prison.

Exploring Alternate History: When Small Changes Create Completely Different Worlds

Fully-Booked: Literary Podcast

Play Episode Listen Later Nov 8, 2024 29:52


In this episode of the Fully-Booked podcast, we delve into the fascinating subgenre of alternate history, a topic we're also covering in-depth on our website and newsletter this month. As we explore the different flavors of alternate history fiction, from magical retellings of Tudor England to dystopian tales of parallel universes, we find ourselves pondering the age-old question: what if? Defining Alternate History Alternate history is a tricky genre to pin down, as it often straddles the line between science fiction and historical fiction. Depending on the story, an alternate history tale might lean more heavily into sci-fi elements, such as time travel or advanced technology, or it might focus more on the historical aspects, reimagining key events or figures from the past. At its core, alternate history asks us to consider how the world might be different if certain pivotal moments had played out differently. What if the Confederacy had won the Civil War? What if the Nazis had emerged victorious in World War II? These are the kinds of questions that alternate history seeks to explore, often with thought-provoking and sometimes disturbing results. The Appeal of "What If?" As we discuss in the episode, the concept of alternate history has been around for centuries, with early examples dating back to the 1400s. There seems to be a universal human fascination with the idea of the road not taken, the path that wasn't followed. We can't help but wonder how our own lives might have turned out differently if we had made other choices at key junctures. This same curiosity extends to the grand sweep of history as well. We look at major events like wars, assassinations, and political upheavals, and we can't help but speculate about how the world might have changed if things had gone another way. Alternate history allows us to indulge these musings and explore the myriad possibilities of the multiverse. Fantasy vs. Sci-Fi One of the key distinctions we draw in the episode is between alternate history stories that incorporate fantasy elements and those that hew more closely to science fiction. We find that the fantasy-tinged alternate histories, like My Lady Jane with its Tudor-era shapeshifters or Jonathan Strange & Mr Norrell with its magicians in Napoleonic England, tend to have a lighter, more playful tone. In contrast, the alternate histories that lean into sci-fi tropes, such as The Man in the High Castle with its dystopian vision of a world where the Axis powers won WWII, are often much darker and more unsettling. These stories seem to suggest that any deviation from our known history is likely to lead to a worse outcome, a more oppressive and nightmarish reality. The Perils of Revisionism This brings us to an important point about the potential pitfalls of alternate history. While it can be fun to imagine how things might have been different, we must be careful not to fall into the trap of historical revisionism or wishful thinking. It's tempting to look back at certain tragedies or atrocities and think, "If only this hadn't happened, the world would be a better place." However, as we note in the episode, reality is often much more complicated. Every event, even the most terrible ones, is the result of a complex web of causes and effects. If you pull on one thread, you risk unraveling the entire tapestry in ways you might not expect. A world without the Civil War, for example, might seem appealing on the surface, but it's impossible to know what other horrors or injustices might have taken its place. The Power of Speculative Fiction Despite these caveats, we remain thoroughly fascinated by the possibilities of alternate history fiction. At its best, the genre allows us to reexamine our assumptions about the past and consider the myriad factors that shape our world. By presenting us with visions of what might have been, alternate histories invite us to look at our own reality with fresh eyes and a greater appreciation for the contingency of history. Moreover, alternate history provides a unique vehicle for exploring issues of identity, power, and social change. By imagining worlds where the marginalized are centered or where the status quo is radically upended, these stories can challenge our preconceptions and broaden our understanding of what is possible. As we wrap up our discussion of alternate history, we find ourselves more intrigued than ever by this endlessly inventive genre. From the fanciful to the dystopian, from the magical to the all-too-real, alternate histories offer a kaleidoscopic array of visions and possibilities. Whether you prefer your alternate histories with a dash of fantasy or a hard sci-fi edge, there's no denying the enduring appeal of the question "What if?" As long as humans keep wondering about the paths not taken and the worlds that might have been, alternate-history fiction will be there to fuel our imaginations and challenge our assumptions. The only limit is the boundless realm of possibility itself. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

"Let the red dawn surmise / What we shall do, / When the blue starlight dies / And all is through." This short poem, an epigraph to "The Yellow Sign," arguably the most memorable tale in Robert W. Chambers' 1895 collection The King in Yellow, encapsulates in four brief lines the affect that drives cosmic horror: the fearful sense of imminent annihilation. In the four stories JF and Phil discuss in this episode, this affect, which would inspire a thousand works of fiction in the twentieth century, emerges fully formed, dripping with the xanthous milk of Decadence. What's more, it is here given a symbol, a face, and a home in the Yellow Sign, the Pallid Mask of the Yellow King, and the lost land of Carcosa. Come one, come all.

VYS0038 | Fuck Capitalism! - Vayse to Face with Rob Kristoffersen - Show Notes Unable to put off dedicating an episode to the UFO mystery any longer, Hine and Buckley welcome researcher, podcaster and writer Rob Kristoffersen. Rob is the creator and host of the incredibly popular podcast Our Strange Skies: UFOs Throughout History, co-creator of the web-comic Welcome UFO People and expert on all things extra-terrestrial, ultra-terrestrial, crypto-terrestrial and any other form in which the phenomenon may choose to manifest. Rob talks about his own weird experiences and Hine and Buckley waste no time in asking him the questions that keep them awake at night: What exactly is it that people are seeing when they see UFOs? Are UFO and alien encounters a range of different experiences and phenomena or are they all the same thing viewed through different lenses? What's the deal with Whitley Strieber and what the deal with Jacques Vallée? Is there a connection between UFOs and death? What's really behind the whole Disclosure movement? Which Cryptid has the best PR person? and what does Rob really think about capitalism...?

Tensions are running high at Book Dreams! Why? The fantasy novels of author Susanna Clarke, that's why. After Julie--and multiple Book Dreams guests--strongly recommended Clarke's novel Piranesi, Eve gave it a try, only to quickly toss it on her DNR pile. Outraged, Julie insisted that Eve not only finish Piranesi, but also dig into Clarke's 800-page doorstopper Jonathan Strange & Mr. Norrell. Can Eve see the error of her ways? (Can you tell who is writing this description?) Is she still speaking to Julie? Should you read the work of this divisive maestro? Take a listen to this week's episode to find out. Susanna Clarke's debut novel, Jonathan Strange & Mr Norrell, was first published in more than 34 countries and was longlisted for the Man Booker Prize and shortlisted for the Whitbread First Novel Award and the Guardian First Book Award. It won British Book Awards Newcomer of the Year, the Hugo Award, and the World Fantasy Award in 2005. The Ladies of Grace Adieu, her collection of short stories, some set in the world of Jonathan Strange & Mr Norrell, was published by Bloomsbury in 2006. Piranesi was a New York Times and Sunday Times bestseller, and shortlisted for the Costa Novel of the Year Award, the RSL Encore Award, and the Women's Prize for Fiction.
