Nick has six novels and a collection of short stories under his belt, but A Forty Year Kiss may be his first love story.  His mind was set to wondering after he overheard a passionate conversation in his favorite local bar between two older people, a conversation that made him blush just a little. He began playing with the idea of what this couple's back story was. Nick's book asks readers to consider the difference between first love and love between mature adults, how life's baggage affects personal relationships, and whether people can really change.    Nick also talks to us about his rural Wisconsin roots, why he read Babysitter Club books in his childhood, and the debate on whether he should wear a cape.     For our book recommendation section of this episode, we decided to find some of our favorite books we've read as a result of being in a book club together for two decades. For the most part, our book club chooses novels, but there is one memoir in the lot, as well as contemporary fiction, historical fiction, sci-fi, and a classic.    Books Discussed in this Episode:   1- A Forty Year Kiss by Nickolas Butler   2- Shotgun Lovesongs by Nickolas Butler   3- A Paris Year by Janice MacLeod   4- Godspeed by Nickolas Butler    5- Love, Hope & Carnage by Nick Cave and Sean O'Hagan   6- The Fertile Earth and the Ordered Cosmos edited by M.

Haciendo saltos temporales y con voces que retratan la adultez y la ilusión del pasado, Henry, Beth, Lee, Ronny y Kip atraviesan matrimonio, divorcios, nostalgias vinculadas a lo que creen que ha sido el fracaso y, sobre todo, la vulnerabilidad que implica ver que la propia vida a seguido cursos que no terminan de gustarles.

Nickolas Butler is an award-winning writer and novelist who has published five books, one of which is the wildly popular, award-winning "Shotgun Love Songs." His most recent novel is titled "Godspeed"-- a fast-paced, thriller of a book that is set in and around Jackson Hole, Wyoming. While the novel has all of the components that make for a great story-- action, suspense, wild landscapes, complex characters-- it also touches on many of the challenges facing the modern-day West, including income inequality and rural gentrification. From the first page of "Godspeed," I was hooked, and I stayed up way too late for several nights in a row finishing the book. - For all of Nick's accomplishments as a novelist, his path to becoming a full-time writer was not an easy one, nor was he an overnight success. He spent many years working a variety of jobs, including as a telemarketer, meatpacker, and Burger King maintenance man. And as you'll hear him discuss in this conversation, it was during his stint working as a liquor store clerk that he decided to fully commit to the craft and profession of writing. Fast forward to today, and his focus, commitment, and hard work have paid off-- not only is he a successful full-time writer, but also a devoted husband and father of two. - Nick and I recorded this conversation just a few days after the publication of "Godspeed." I was lucky enough to read an advanced copy of the book prior to our conversation, and I can't say enough great things about it. So we obviously talked a lot about the book-- his process for writing it, how the book highlights present-day challenges facing the West, and how he went about developing the plot and the characters. We discussed his journey as a writer and artist-- how and why he views writing as a craft, the importance of hard work, and how he keeps his competitive fire burning, even after experiencing so much success. We also talk a lot about family and community, which are two subjects that Nick and I are both very passionate about. And finally, Nick offers up a ton of excellent book and author recommendations, as well as some wise parting words. - Big thanks to the great writer, angler, and past podcast guest Chris Dombrowski for introducing me to Nick. Check the episode notes for the full list of everything we discuss and links to all of the books and authors that nick mentions.

Mateo lo analiza con la sutileza de un cirujano. El rockero viejo que ya no puede decir que nunca muera es Sylvain Sylvain, el guitarrista de los New York Dolls, un tipo que se puede ir al hoyo feliz y contento de tantos caminos que abrió con sus colegas. Manu nos habla de un cómic pistonudo: Tigresa contra Pesadilla y, además, nos trae al novelista Nickolas Butler que, desde su casa de Wisconsin nos habla de su año loco, sus obsesiones y su próximo libro.

Die erste Pfarrerin der Schweiz, eine Mutter, die wegen ihres Glaubens das Leben ihres Kindes gefährdet – und erste Sätze in der Weltliteratur. Der Stapel auf dem heutigen Literaturstammtisch ist vielseitig – und trotzdem haben die Bücher etwas gemeinsam: sie sorgen für Denkanstösse. In der ersten Hälfte des 20. Jahrhunderts durften Frauen in der Schweiz zwar Theologie studieren, aber kein Pfarramt übernehmen. 1931 fand das Bündner Bergdorf Furna keinen Mann für diesen Posten – und wählte Greti Caprez-Roffler. Im Buch «Die illegale Pfarrerin» hält ihre Enkelin Christina Caprez Rückschau auf dieses bewegte Leben zwischen Ungehorsam und Anpassung. Mit seinem neuen Roman «Ein wenig Glaube» hat der US-amerikanische Autor Nickolas Butler eine aktuelle Thematik aufgegriffen: es geschieht immer wieder, dass Eltern, die einer fundamentalistischen, religiösen Gruppe angehören, ihren kranken Kindern die medizinische Hilfe verwehren. Butler hat dieses Schicksal eines Kindes fiktionalisiert und erzählt von einem Jungen und seinen Grosseltern, die keine Chance haben, sich gegen die Mutter, die zu einer Sekte gehört, zu stellen. Der erste Satz einer Erzählung oder eines Romans muss verführen. Welche Tricks da zur Verfügung stehen, erläutert der renommierte Berlin Germanistikprofessor Peter-André Alt in seinem Buch «Jemand musste Josef K. verleumdet haben. Erste Sätze der Weltliteratur und was sie uns verraten». Anhand von über 200 besonders gelungenen ersten Sätzen zeigt er auf, was die Weltliteratur und uns Leserinnen und Leser in Schwung bringt. In der Stammtischrunde diskutieren: Luzia Stettler, Franziska Hirsbrunner, Britta Spichiger. Buchhinweise: Christina Caprez. Die illegale Pfarrerin – Das Leben von Greti Carpez-Roffler. Limmat Verlag, 2020. Nickolas Butler. Ein wenig Glaube. Klett-Cotta, 2020.  Peter-André Alt. Jemand musste Josef K. verleumdet haben. Erste Sätze der Weltliteratur und was sie uns verraten. C. H.
