Who holds up a mirror to you? We're all on our journeys forward, trying to figure things out and understand our destination, and it's really hard to do that alone. So, travel with people. Travel with someone. Travel with a group of people. Now, one of those people, I think, should be someone who can say, this is who I think you are right now. This is where I think you are right now. It's the same person who can then say, look how far you've come. Look how you're a different person. They can see the growth and they can celebrate the change to find that person. Also, be that person for someone. Travel with them and speak what you see. Today's guest is Lauren Crux, a multifaceted individual with a diverse range of talents and experiences. As a psychotherapist, author, photographer, and performer, she brings a unique perspective to her work. She embodies the essence of self-discovery and growth, inspiring others to explore their own paths with courage and curiosity. Get book links and resources at http://2pageswithmbs.com and subscribe to the 2 Pages newsletter at https://2pageswithmbs.substack.com. Lauren reads two pages from The Book by Mary Ruefle. [reading begins at 17:16] Hear us discuss: "The far horizon has become the near one. So what do you do when you're looking over the edge? What becomes important?" [01:38] | "I just continue to learn and do my best to figure out how to love life even though I suffer a lot, you know, that sort of thing." [02:07] | "I love the wit and the humor and the absurdity. She uses this formal form of ‘one would, one doesn't.' These phrases, “I am of the surest that you would be…” It's ridiculous." [23:02] | "I love the ordinary everyday that becomes magical. And sometimes it just remains mundane." [24:43] | “I do a lot of fertilizing and a lot of watering and replanting. And I work at it. It's easy work, but I do work at it." [32:11]

Close friend of Michael Silverblatt's and Bookworm editor for 30 years, Alan Howard guest hosts this episode on grief and loss. When the two met more than 33 years ago, Michael's first words were, “What are you reading?” It was a question that brought Howard back to literature. Over the years, Michael did the same for thousands of listeners. With Bookworm, he was determined to return literary fiction and poetry to the center of the zeitgeist. In the process, he faced the realities of loss and grief. In conversation after conversation with writers he was forging collegial friendships with, loss itself was a frequent topic of those friendships and conversations. We'll hear from Marilynne Robinson, Joan Didion, Jim Krusoe, Steve Erickson, Dave Eggers, and Mary Ruefle.

Do good people make for good novels? In this episode, the author Lydia Millet, best known for The Children's Bible, a National Book Award Finalist, talks about her latest novel, Dinosaurs,  the story of Gil, an unambiguously good man who is determined to make the world a better place.  “I think books should have an agenda, but I don't think you should be able to deliver a one-liner about what that agenda is,” she has said. “It should be an agenda felt by the reader, sensed by the reader, but not fully known. In my work, often there's a sort of agenda of empathy.” Later in the show we'll discuss what agenda might be lurking between the lines of two of Lydia Millet's favorite books - the short, tight prose pieces in Mary Ruefle's collection, The Most of It, and in Mary Robinson's 2001 novel, Why Did I Ever. And we'll hear from Mary Ruefle herself, as she reads from one of the pieces in The Most It.

Reviewing Post Meridian (2000), critic Lisa Beskin of the Boston Review observed, “Like John Ashbery and James Tate, Mary Ruefle investigates the multiplicities and frailties of being with an associative inventiveness and a lightness of touch; the purposefulness of her enquiry never eclipses the remarkable beauty of her work.”Ruefle earned a BA from Bennington College. She has received fellowships from the National Endowment for the Arts and the Guggenheim Foundation, as well as a Whiting Writers' Award, and an Award in Literature from the American Academy of Arts and Letters. Her work has been anthologized in Best American Poetry, Great American Prose Poems (2003), American Alphabets: 25 Contemporary Poets (2006), and The Next American Essay (2002). Ruefle has taught at Vermont College and the University of Iowa Writers' Workshop. She lives in Vermont.From https://www.poetryfoundation.org/poets/mary-ruefle. For more information about Mary Ruefle:My Private Property by Mary Ruefle: https://www.wavepoetry.com/products/my-private-property“Becoming Invisible: An Interview with Mary Ruefle”: https://www.theparisreview.org/blog/2016/12/12/becoming-invisible-an-interview-with-mary-ruefle/“Mary Ruefle”: https://www.maryruefle.com

In Mary Ruefles Prosaminiaturen wird das Profane, werden Obsessionen, Sehnsüchte und widersprüchliche Neigungen zum Katalysator von Erkenntnis. Es geht um die Banalität, wie auch um das Glück im Alltäglichen, aber auch um die Traurigkeit und die Vergeblichkeit menschlichen Tuns.  Von Angela Gutzeitwww.deutschlandfunk.de, BüchermarktDirekter Link zur Audiodatei

Das neue Jahr startet mit zwei literarischen Schwergewichten: Der französische Starautor Michel Houellebecq veröffentlicht sein neues Buch fast gleichzeitig in Frankreich und Deutschland. Es spielt 2027 und heißt martialisch: "Vernichtung". "Zum Paradies" dagegen heißt das neue Buch von Hanya Yanagihara und auch das spielt zur Hälfte in der Zukunft - nämlich 2093. Eine virengeplagte Menschheit, in der gleichgeschlechtliche Liebe völlige Normalität ist (und vielleicht die einzige Freiheit, die geblieben ist). Außerdem bewundern wir das kleine Buch "Mein Privatbesitz" von Mary Ruefle und stellen einen neuen Roman von Ronja von Rönne vor.

In their funny and thought-provoking conversation by telephone, celebrated American poet Mary Ruefle and Review editor Emily Berry discuss starting poems and first lines; working to commission and no longer facing the blank page; writing letters, writing prose, humour and sadness and not being afraid of the latter; pins, paper clips, swimming and getting comfortable with what we don't know... Poetry is to be experienced as a phenomenon on earth, Ruefle says, “[it] is not be understood… it's a little scary but it's a matter of letting go”. She gives wonderful readings of her poems in the Review summer 2021 issue: ‘Lament', ‘Conflict', ‘My Life as a Scholar' and ‘Empathy of Cod'.
