From the loss innocence, to the heart-wrenching betrayals and gasp-worthy twists (yes, we said fuck you in the most complimentary way), Stacey unpacks the themes of love, loyalty, destiny, and power that make A Forbidden Alchemy unforgettable.

In dieser Episode befasse ich mich mit dem Buch "Maschinen wie ich" von Ian McEwan, einem Roman, der tiefgreifende Fragen zur menschlichen Existenz aufwirft. Die Geschichte folgt Charlie, einem charmanten Lebenskünstler Anfang 30, und Miranda, einer intelligenten Studentin mit einem düsteren Geheimnis. Ihre Beziehung wird durch die Einführung von Adam, einem lebensechten Androiden, auf eine spannende Probe gestellt. Ich erkunde die grundlegenden Fragen des Romans: Können Maschinen denken, fühlen und lieben? Adams komplexe Emotionen und moralischen Prinzipien führen Charlie und Miranda in unerwartete und teils verhängnisvolle Situationen. In meiner persönlichen Rezension teile ich, wie ich zu diesem Buch gekommen bin. Als ich am Samstag über den Markt schlenderte und in der Büchergilde Gutenberg stöberte, fiel mir das Buch in die Hände. "Maschinen wie ich" spielt in einer alternativen Vergangenheit, im Jahr 1982, wo technologische Entwicklungen weit fortgeschrittener sind als in der Realität. Der Roman thematisiert, was wäre, wenn wir bereits im Jahr 1982 über selbstdenkende Maschinen und Konzepte wie ein bedingungsloses Grundeinkommen diskutiert hätten. Diese alternativen Aspekte der Handlung verleihen der Geschichte ihren einzigartigen Charme und machen sie zu einem fesselnden Leseerlebnis. Die Beziehung zwischen Charlie und Miranda steht im Mittelpunkt der Erzählung. Miranda trägt schwer an ihrer Vergangenheit, geprägt von einem traumatischen Erlebnis. Gleichzeitig wird der brillante Alan Turing eingeführt, dessen historische Figur mit der Entwicklung der Computertechnologie verbunden ist. Im Roman lebt Turing weiter und hat entscheidenden Einfluss auf die wissenschaftlichen Fortschritte. Einzigartig ist auch Adams Charakter, der nicht nur ein Roboter, sondern auch ein tiefgründiger Protagonist ist, der für Miranda empfindet und Gedichte verfasst. Trotz der Vielzahl an Themen bleibt der Roman fokussiert und unterhaltsam. McEwan skizziert eindringliche Personen und Situationen, die den Leser zum Nachdenken anregen. Ich reflektiere darüber, wohin uns die Entwicklung von Robotern führen könnte, insbesondere wenn sie uns zu ähnlich werden. "Maschinen wie ich" ist weit mehr als nur ein Science-Fiction-Roman; es ist eine Einladung zur Auseinandersetzung mit entscheidenden Fragen über unsere Menschlichkeit und Technologie. Ich empfehle jedem, die Gelegenheit zu nutzen, dieses Buch zu lesen, es hat das Potenzial, den Leser nachhaltig zu berühren und zum Nachdenken zu bringen. Der Roman ist zugänglich und doch komplex, ideal für jene, die sich auf tiefere Gedanken einlassen möchten.

A Missouri woman will spend a decade behind bars after admitting she shot her sleeping husband in the back of the head because financial difficulties made divorce too costly. On Monday, Sixteenth Circuit Court Judge Jalilah Otto sentenced 42-year-old Melanie Biggins to 10 years in state prison for the 2022 killing of her husband, Etienne L. McEwan, according to court records. Biggins reached a plea deal in which she pleaded guilty to voluntary manslaughter. In exchange, prosecutors dropped charges of first-degree murder and armed criminal action, averting a possible life sentence. Authorities say officers with the Kansas City Missouri Police Department responded to a 911 call around 1 a.m. on Aug. 31, 2022, at a home in the 1700 block of Gillespie Place. Biggins and McEwan's two young daughters, ages 10 and 11, waved down first responders, who went upstairs and found Biggins attempting CPR on her husband. Emergency personnel pronounced McEwan dead at the scene. Initially, Biggins claimed she woke to the sound of a gunshot and did not see who fired the weapon. She told investigators she found the front door open, suggesting an intruder might have been responsible. However, police found no evidence of forced entry and quickly ruled out suicide. Detectives recovered a pillow with a bullet hole and blood at the foot of the bed, along with a handgun containing a spent shell casing under a bunk bed in a nearby room. Purchase records showed Biggins had bought the revolver just a month earlier. She later acknowledged that she had hoped to leave McEwan for another man but was unable to afford a divorce. Both daughters reported waking to a gunshot and finding their mother downstairs before returning to discover McEwan lying in bed, prompting one of them to call 911. Biggins initially denied owning a handgun or leaving the bedroom, but ultimately admitted to purchasing the weapon and expressed a desire to end her marriage. In sentencing Biggins, Judge Otto accepted the plea deal negotiated by public defender Edward S. Berrigan and prosecutors, resulting in a 10-year prison term for voluntary manslaughter.

Sandra Petrignani"Leggere gli uomini"Editori Laterza.itwww.laterza.itSpalancando le chiuse ‘stanze tutte per sé' degli scrittori, Sandra Petrignani legge gli uomini, con passione e in ordine sparso. Rilegge i loro libri cercando di comprendere anche la loro natura.Per secoli, solo gli scrittori maschi hanno potuto disporre di una stanza tutta per sé, di uno ‘studio' inaccessibile dove indisturbati hanno composto capolavori. E quando ne uscivano, avevano il mondo intero per fare esperienza di cose e persone. Al sesso femminile raramente è stato concesso un analogo privilegio. Il sesso femminile per molto tempo non ha potuto scriverli quei libri meravigliosi: soltanto leggerli. Così intere generazioni di donne hanno esplorato le geografie dell'animo umano, scoperto l'amore, l'amicizia e la propria identità sulle opere scritte dagli uomini. Rispecchiandosi a volte perfettamente, a volte con difficoltà, a volte per niente.Fra esercizi di ammirazione e scatti di rabbia, attraverso memorabili citazioni, Sandra Petrignani ci porta dentro tante pagine indimenticabili, da Dumas a Roth, da Pavese a Proust, da Calvino a Tolstoj, da Gary a Dostoevskij, da Moravia a Mann, da Manganelli a Kundera, da Malerba a Čechov, da Nabokov a Chatwin, da Tabucchi a Kafka e a mille altri. Fino ad alcuni grandi di oggi, Modiano, McEwan, Carrère... Cercando davvero di capirli i maschi, nella scrittura e nella vita, nel coraggio e nella fragilità, nel bisogno di nascondersi e di negarsi, nelle ossessioni di cui sono preda. Una scorribanda molto personale e appassionata che ci fa scoprire, come insegna Virginia Woolf, quanto «nella vita come nell'arte i valori delle donne non sono i valori degli uomini» e che esiste, probabilmente, un modo femminile di essere lettore.Sandra Petrignani, nata a Piacenza, vive fra la campagna umbra e Roma. Fra le sue pubblicazioni: con La Tartaruga Le signore della scrittura; con Neri Pozza i libri di viaggio Ultima Indiae La scrittrice abita qui, i racconti di fantasmi Care presenze, ilritratto della società letteraria del dopoguerra Addio a Roma, il romanzo dedicato alla figura di DurasMarguerite, il ritratto di Natalia GinzburgLa corsara, finalista Premio Strega 2019; con Giunti La persona giusta, romanzo per YA; con Rrose Sélavy la fiaba illustrata per bambini Elsina e il grande segreto, ispirata a Elsa Morante; con Gramma/Feltrinelli Autobiografia dei miei cani.

The Repair of a Frame Gone Awry with Alan Karbelnig, PhD (Pasadena, California)

"As I elaborate in the book, there was no physical contact or romantic engagement. The reason why I chose the ‘lover' as the [psychoanalytic] analogy is, in the real world outside of psychoanalytic practice, where else do you have an interpersonal encounter that is so intensely engaging, attentive, respectful, and caring? That would be in the first six weeks or six months of a romantic relationship. If we eliminate the romantic/sexual part and just stay with ‘wow, this other party is paying such attention to me' -  reminds me of Lacan's idea that what we really seek in the other is their desire for us, which by the way, I don't completely agree with because I think it goes both ways - I would say that that is the analogy from the world of lovers that I would map onto psychoanalytic work at least on the part of the psychoanalyst - he or she ideally pays that kind of intense attention, care, respect and attunement, that you would find between lovers.”   Episode Description: We begin with discussing the various ways that we can shape our psychoanalytic frame to enable a deepening of the clinical encounter. This is in contrast to frames that have gone awry. In his book Lover - Exorcist - Critic Alan describes a composite patient where he became over-involved to the detriment of the work that was eventually repaired. We reference a problematic frame in his earlier training analysis that perhaps set the stage for this difficulty. He shares with us his concept that "by enlightening subjectivity, by raising consciousness, depth psychotherapy liberates." We discuss in some detail the forces in him, his patient, and their relationship that led him to greater enactments than were useful. He shares with us the challenges he faced in remedying his emotional imbalance with her and the intense rage it awakened in her, deriving from various periods in her life. We both emphasized the vital role of the consultant at such times. We close with Alan describing his co-founding and leadership in the Rose City Center - a low fee clinic providing dynamic psychotherapy to individuals who would never otherwise see the inside of an analyst's office.   Our Guest: Alan Michael Karbelnig, PhD is a psychoanalyst, writer, teacher, and forensic psychologist and practices in Pasadena, California. He is a supervising and training psychoanalyst at the New Center for Psychoanalysis in Los Angeles. He lectures nationally and internationally, including in China, India, Thailand, and Israel. He writes a weekly Substack newsletter titled Journeys to the Unconscious Mind. Alan has published 20 scholarly articles and five book chapters in addition to his book Lover, Exorcist, and Critic. He considers his 2004 founding of Rose City Center—a nonprofit clinic providing psychoanalytic psychotherapy for economically disadvantaged persons throughout California—his proudest professional accomplishment.    Recommended Readings:   Bellow, H.
