SAN ONOFRE-TMR thru the eyes of pubescent magic Claudio y Ulises descuartizan a la carpa SAN ONOFRE sacamos pecho al presentar un episodio único e histórico en nuestra milenaria histeria radiofónica. Por primera vez en veintiséis campañas y más de un millar de transverbaciones, ninguno de los dos fundadores de SAN ONOFRE abrirá el pico en absoluto. Toman el testigo, para alivio y solaz de nuestra nutrida, entregada parroquia onofrita dos prepúberes, Ulises y Claudio. Prometedores nombres, ¿ein? Estos muchachos llegarán a ser hommmbres ilustres. Les voy a confesar una cosa, amigos onofritas, cuando al fin hincamos el diente onofrita, hace escasas lunas, a Children of Men, de la gran PD James, no pudimos evitar que Ulises y Claudio nos recordaran poderosamente a los dos protagonistas principales, respectivamente Theo Faron y Xan Lyppiat. ¿No se consumen Vstedes de ganas de saber el enfoque de estos ilustrados chaveas? SAN ONOFRE presenta, salvaje, sin adulterar, loca, creativa, expansiva, transgresora, inmortal, siempre recién nacida, acaso moribunda Trout Mask Replica. ¡Larga vida al Capitán! Próxima liturgia onofrita: Eugene Chadbourne (und Schoreder) Bar Arcadia. Viernes 26 abril 2024 20:00 h. 10 evros

Our guest this week, Ritu Mukerji, is a busy, full-time physician and a mother of 3, but she managed to find time to write her first novel, a recently published historical fiction mystery titled Murder by Degrees about a female physician in late 19th century Philadelphia. She was inspired by her love of the mystery genre as well as her experience living in Philadelphia while getting her medical degree where she would often visit places where female doctors had paved the way for other women to follow. We chat with Ritu about why physicians can make good detectives, and she shares some of her favorite mystery series and the recipe for her favorite Thanksgiving side dish that's been prepared in her family for over 30 years.

Scientist and writer Danyl McLauchlan joins Kim to tackle life's big questions, ideas and thinkers. This week, he's examining the role dystopian novels play in politics. The conservative fundamentalist nightmare of Margaret Atwood's The Handmaid's Tale has become a go-to analogy for liberals when criticising the right. Just recently Labour's Megan Woods accused National (via a tweeted GIF) of wanting to turn New Zealand into Gilead if they excluded contraceptives from their prescription subsidy scheme. It's not the only book to be co-opted as a political weapon. Orwell's 1984 and P D James' Children of Men have been used in similar ways by politicians of varying colours.
When the world's first state pension was introduced in Prussia in 1889, the qualifying age was 70 and the average life expectancy was 40. Half a century later, in 1935, many countries lowered the retirement age to 65, but still barely half the population lived long enough to claim it. Now, it's clearly a very different story. With the help of PD James, Sarah Dunant looks at how the UK can tackle the demographic nightmare it currently faces - an ageing population but falling birth rates.

Writing dynasties (part 4): Felix Francis, Andrew Child/Grant & Rajmohan Gandhi tell We'd Like A Word hosts Paul Waters & Stevyn Colgan about taking on a big book brand or carrying on a family writing tradition. It's different from continuation novels, they say, like when Anthony Horowitz took on Ian Fleming's James Bond character (see episode 4, series 1 of We'd Like A Word with Anthony Horowitz https://spotifyanchor-web.app.link/e/rtTQmLv7Ivb ). These are books, stories and characters with whom they have grown up. But do they try to be exactly like their predecessor or collaborator? Distinctively different? How open are they about it? Is it better to keep it a secret until you're sure that readers will like it? And what if the originator decides he maybe does not want to retire after all? How do they write? And what books are they writing next? Lots of interesting answers in this 4-part episode. Felix Francis is the son of Richard and Mary Francis, who together created the internationally bestselling Dick Francis thrillers, set in the world of horse racing. Felix began contributing to, then co-writing, then solely authoring the Dick Francis books long before his name was on the covers. He's written 16 of them now. Where does Dick end and Felix begin? Listen to find out. Andrew Grant - now also known as Andrew Child - is the younger brother of Lee Child (real name Jim Grant), the creator of the bestselling Jack Reacher series - which you may also know from the Tom Cruise movies or the Amazon series starring Alan Ritchson. When decided he had only 4 more books left in him, he asked his brother Andrew to collaborate with him with a view to ultimately taking over. (Though that particular plot thickens...) But Andrew was already a successful thriller author in his own right. And he has a personal past cloaked in mystery. Rajmohan Gandhi was a teenager when he was inspired to investigate how the world works and to write about it when his grandfather, the Mahatma, Mohandas Gandhi was assassinated in 1948. He spoke to We'd Like A Word at the Khushwant Singh Literary Festival in Kasauli in India. It's hard to think of a more famous forebear than Gandhi. So how does Rajmohan fit into the tradition? Lots of other authors, people & topics get discussed too - Tasha Alexander (the Lady Emily Ashton mysteries), Ben McIntyre, Desmond Bagley, Alistair Maclean, Alan Davies (Just Ignore Him), Arthur Ransome (Swallows and Amazons), Paul Gallico (The Snow Goose), Airey Neave and PD James. We'd Like A Word is a podcast & radio show from authors Paul Waters & Stevyn Colgan. We talk with writers, readers, editors, agents, celebrities, talkers, poets, publishers, booksellers, audiobook creators about books - fiction & non-fiction. We go out on various radio & podcast platforms. Our website is http://www.wedlikeaword.com for information on Paul & Steve & our guests. We're also on Twitter @wedlikeaword & Facebook @wedlikeaword & our email is wedlikeaword@gmail.com Yes, we are embarrassed by the missing apostrophes. We like to hear from you - questions, thoughts, ideas, guest or book suggestions. Perhaps you'd like to come on We'd Like A Word to chat, review or read out passages from books. And if you're still stuck for something to read, may we recommend Blackwatertown, the thriller by Paul Waters or Cockerings, the new comic classic by Stevyn Colgan.

Rise of the Ravenisha: A Fantasy Fiction Novel On Freeing Yourself From Bondage And Coming Into Your Own Power A wonderfully woven, speculative fiction novel about werepanthers, warrior women, and revenge. Warrior women. Ancient power struggles. Corrupt experiments. Queen Idia sold her friends and fellow warriors into slavery for nefarious reasons, an ancient tribe of African warrior women known collectively as the Ravenisha. Hundreds of years later, the Old-Generation Ravenisha anticipate that the time to release themselves from bondage has arrived. The New-Generation Ravenisha, led by Teddy, need to be nurtured and are ready to spring into action. Can Teddy overcome her own issues to fulfill La Panthère Noire's prophecy to lead the Ravenisha into a new world order, or will she doom the Ravenisha to slavery for all eternity? A Talladega, Alabama native, Pamela Lawson received her Bachelor's Degree in Anthropology from the University of California at Berkeley. After threatening to write a book for twenty-plus years, Pamela finally did so, with Rise of the Ravenisha being her maiden novel. The second book, Rogue Ravenisha, is complete, and there are plans for a third installment, tentatively titled Revenge of the Ravenisha. Pamela has been a fan of horror since childhood: staying up many a weekend watching creature features and reading books written by authors, such as Edgar Allan Poe and Mary Shelley. Pamela's literary interests are far-ranging, from authors such as Stephen King, Anne Rice, PD James, Walter Mosley, James Lee Burke, Kathy Reichs, and Louise Penny to James Baldwin and Zora Neale Hurston. Pamela lives in Northern California with her two felines, Ferg and Nikos and dabbles in dressage. --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/mahogany-says/support
