On the heels of his National Book Critics Circle Award-winning memoir Half a Life, Darin Strauss, author of the New York Times bestseller Chang & Eng, presents us with a wild and indelible story based on the loves and losses of Lucille Ball, the woman who became Hollywood’s first true female mogul while navigating a tumultuous personal life. In The Queen of Tuesday, Strauss mixes fact and fiction, memoir and novel, to bring us face-to-face with one of the world’s most remarkable entertainers. The novel begins with a daring conceit: that the author’s grandfather, Isidore Strauss, may have enjoyed—and suffered as a result of—a passionate affair with the legendary actress. As Strauss shows, Lucille is a singular character—the greatest screen idol the world has ever seen, and the most powerful woman in the history of Hollywood. She starred in America’s first big-time interracial marriage. She loved hard. She may or may not have been a Communist. And she more or less single-handedly came up with the modern television business. When she got pregnant, she convinced a network that viewers would accept warmed-over episodes, thus creating the “re-run.” While making millions laugh on the small screen, in private Lucille struggled. Her partner in that famously “happy marriage” that people tuned into, reliably, week after week, couldn’t stay faithful. And she found it difficult to balance her ever-ascending fame with the demands of being a mother, a creative genius, an entrepreneur, a media tycoon, and, most of all, a symbol. Did Strauss’s grandfather actually have a relationship with the First Lady of Television? Who’s to say he did, and who’s to say he didn’t? Regardless, The Queen of Tuesday vibrates with Lucy’s inspiring and surprisingly human story at the same time it interrogates celebrity, media, the role of gender, and the manufacturing of glamour, offering a fresh view of a woman America adored, and reminding us all that, sometimes, you have to create your own reality. Darin Strauss is the author of the bestselling novels Chang & Eng, The Real McCoy, More Than It Hurts You, the National Book Critics Circle Award-winning memoir Half a Life, and a bestselling comic-book series, Olivia Twist. Together, they’ve been New York Times Notable Books and Newsweek, Los Angeles Times, San Francisco Chronicle, Chicago Tribune, Amazon, and NPR Best Books of the Year. The recipient of a Guggenheim Fellowship and an American Library Award, Strauss has been published in 14 languages and 19 countries. He has appeared on ABC’s Good Morning America and CBS’s The Late Late Show, and has collaborated on screenplays with Gary Oldman and Julie Taymor. Films based on Half a Life and More Than it Hurts You are in progress, and the TV rights to Chang & Eng have been optioned to Ilene Chaiken, a creative force behind The “L” Word, The Handmaid’s Tale, and Empire. Clinical Professor of Fiction in the Graduate Writing Program at New York University, he lives in Brooklyn. --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/steve-richards/support

Let's connect our global literary community in a time of closed borders. Hear World Editions authors Adam Dalva, Esther Gerritsen, Adeline Dieudonné, Pierre Jarawan, Sisonke Msimang, and Amin Maalouf read from their works, discuss the current situation in their countries, and talk about what books mean to them during Covid-19. Adam Dalva’s writing has appeared in The New York Review of Books, The Paris Review, Tin House, and The Guardian. He teaches Creative Writing at Rutgers University and is a book critic for Guernica Magazine. Adam has received fellowships from the Atlantic Center for the Arts and the Vermont Studio Center. He is a graduate of NYU’s MFA Program, where he was a Veterans Writing Workshop Fellow. Adam’s bestselling comic book, Olivia Twist, was published by Dark Horse in Fall 2018. Esther Gerritsen is a Dutch novelist, columnist, and playwright. She made her literary debut in 2000. She is one of the most established, widely read, and highly praised authors in the Netherlands, and makes regular appearances on radio programs and at literary festivals. Esther Gerritsen had the honor of writing the Dutch Book Week gift in 2016, which had a print run of 700,000 copies. In 2014 she was awarded the Frans Kellendonk Prize for her oeuvre. Her book Craving was made into a film in 2018, and film rights have been sold for her novel Roxy, which was just published in English. Adeline Dieudonné is a Belgian author and lives in Brussels. Real Life, her debut novel, was published in France in Autumn 2018 and has since been awarded most of the major French literary prizes: the prestigious Prix du Roman FNAC, the Prix Rossel, the Prix Renaudot des Lycéens, the Prix Goncourt―Le Choix de la Belgique, the Prix des Étoiles du Parisien, the Prix Première Plume, and the Prix Filigrane, a French prize for a work of high literary quality with wide appeal. Dieudonné also performs as a stand-up comedian. Pierre Jarawan was born in 1985 to a Lebanese father and a German mother and moved to Germany with his family at the age of three. Inspired by his father’s imaginative bedtime stories, he started writing at the age of thirteen. He has won international prizes as a slam poet, and in 2016 was named Literature Star of the Year by the daily newspaper Abendzeitung. Jarawan received a literary scholarship from the City of Munich (the Bayerischer Kunstförderpreis) for The Storyteller, which went on to become a bestseller and booksellers’ favorite in Germany and the Netherlands. Sisonke Msimang is the author of Always Another Country: A memoir of exile and home. She is a South African writer whose work is focussed on race, gender and democracy. She has written for a range of international publications including the New York Times, the Washington Post, The Guardian, Newsweek and Al Jazeera. Born in Beirut in 1949, Amin Maalouf has lived in France since 1976. After studying sociology and economics, Maalouf joined the Lebanese daily An-Nahar, for which he travelled the world covering numerous events, from the fall of the Ethiopian monarchy to the last battle of Saigon. Forced to emigrate by the war in Lebanon, he settled in Paris, where he resumed journalism, and from where he started to travel again, from Mozambique to Iran and from Argentina to the Balkans. He became editor of the international edition of An-Nahar, then editor-in-chief of the weekly Jeune Afrique, before giving up all his posts to dedicate himself to literature.

Ett collage om den egensinniga jazzgitarristen och filmmusikkompositören Jan Tolf. Vem var han och vad var det för inre bilder som drev honom? Jan Tolf var vida känd i jazzkretsar med band som EGBA, Resa, Häxmjölk, Alfons Bandage mfl. Han influerades av Herbie Hancock, Frank Zappa, Stravinskij, Bernard Herrmann mfl. Många som sysslar med filmmusik har haft Tolf som förebild. Hans filmmusik bidrog i hög grad till prisade SVT Dramaproduktioner som Apelsinmannen, Trenterserien, Svarta Cirkeln, Den vite riddaren, En komikers uppväxt och Olivia Twist. Som maskrosbarn omvandlade Jan Tolf sina upplevelser på ett fascinerande och fantasifullt sätt. Nu inspirerar han en ny generation musikskapare. Vem var han, denna säregna begåvade musiker som skrev titlar som Födselände, Tropiklugg och Man blir inte blind av att blunda? Musikervänner och kollegor ger sin egen bild av Jan Tolf.I programmet hör vi ett 20-tal röster om Jan Tolf, bl a Jonas Cornell regissör, Mia Olvång bildkonstnär och livskamrat, Örjan Fahlström professor på KMH, Alfons Karabuda, kompositör och SKAP-ordförande och musikervännerna Zoie Finer, David Fredrickson, Lise Hummel, Kjell Karlsson, Rolf Magnusson, Kettil Medelius, Tessan Milveden, Nino Ramsby, Gertrud Stenung, Claes Wang och Jenny Wikström.
