In this episode of The Cordial Catholic, I'm joined by my friend Matthew Becklo, writer, editor, and Publishing Director for Bishop Barron's Word on Fire Catholic Ministries, to talk about the Catholic "both/and" paradigm that uniquely defines the Church that Christ founded. Neither "earthbound" or too "heavenly-minded," Becklo shows how, time and again, the Catholic Church walks the line between being too worldly and being too disengaged with the world. In how the Church worships, the role of the sacraments, Christology, the nature of the Church, and the Protestant Reformation. Becklo demonstrates how throughout history the Catholic Church has paved the way which balances both the role of Scripture and the place of tradition. This is such a deep and fascinating conversation. I hope you love it! To check out Matthew's great new book head over to Word on Fire.Send your feedback to cordialcatholic@gmail.com.

In this episode of Pagecast, Jeremy Boraine sits down with acclaimed author James Whyle to discuss his latest literary work, We Two From Heaven. In this conversation they touch on the creative process, the themes that shaped the book, and the profound narratives woven throughout this remarkable work. Don't miss this insightful conversation that bridges literature and life. Whether you're a devoted reader or a curious listener, this episode offers a unique glimpse into the story behind the story. More about the book: We Two from Heaven is a singular memoir, a four-part fugue on the tricks and traps of memory, a shuffling of the cards of time. Episodes from the early life of writer James Whyle are interwoven with the letters of his father from the Western Front during the First World War. Their formative experiences – war, conscription, injury, desertion – flash by, juxtaposed, as if in counterpoint. How do we know who we are? Upending the reader's expectations of a memoir, Whyle then explores the violence and madness of apartheid society as the narrator passes through boarding school and university and takes his first steps to become a writer. Raw and rhythmic, lyrical and caustic, this is an unsparing, formally inventive dissection of human vanities and illusions. At the end of history, on the shores of a blue bay, the voices of the past can be heard as we await the arrival of the barbarians – or the baboons, whoever comes first. More about James and Jeremy: James Whyle grew up in the Amatole Mountains in South Africa. Conscripted into the apartheid army, he was discharged on the grounds of insanity. He did everything in his power to assist the authorities in arriving at this diagnosis. The resulting play, National Madness, won an Amstel Playwright of the Year merit award in 1982. His story, The Story, was chosen by JM Coetzee as winner of the 2011 Pen/Studzinski competition. The Book of War, a novel, won the M-Net Lit Prize for best debut in 2012. Jeremy Boraine is Publishing Director at Jonathan Ball Publishers. #Pagecast #JamesWhyle #WeTwoFromHeaven #JeremyBorraine #BookPodcast #AuthorInterview #LiteraryDiscussion #JonathanBallPublishers #PodcastLovers #CreativeWriting

Today I am speaking with Finnish publisher Outi Karemaa. I personally find the Nordic publishing market fascinating, not least because it is relatively difficult to sell into those markets. I like challenges! Outi and I speak about those challenges, the state of the Finnish publishing market, and also about the rising popularity, and therefore competition, of English-language books on the Finnish market which we're seeing in other Nordic countries and the Netherlands as well. Show Notes: Outi's book recommendations: - The Spy and the Traitor (Crown, 2019) and Agent Sonya: Moscow's Most Daring Wartime Spy (Crown, 2020) by Ben Macintyre - The Mitford Murders (series) (Minotaur Books) by Jessica Fellowes About Outi Outi Karemaa (born 1969) is an experienced Chief Executive with a long history of working in the publishing business. She is a Doctor of Philosophy (PhD) focused on history from the University of Helsinki. Outi started her career in the publishing business 1998 and worked at Edita Publishing as a Publishing Manager and then as a Publishing Director. In 2010 she started as a CEO of Metsäkustannus, which is a publisher of magazines and books. In 2019 Outi started as a CEO at book publisher Minerva. After the biggest book publisher of Finland WSOY (Werner Söderström Ltd.) bought Minerva a year ago, her title has been a Publisher. Minerva is nowadays an imprint of WSOY, so Minerva still has its own publishing list. Minerva's main areas are fiction, general non-fiction, as well as gift and hobby books and books for children. Outi lives in Helsinki with her family and a very social cat.

Welcome to Season 2, episode 2 of Make Books Travel Podcast, during which I interviewed Judith Uyterlinde. Judith has had a diverse career in publishing, and for the past few years she's been Publishing Director of the very internationally-minded publishing house World Editions. It's one of the few publishing houses that focuses on bringing international literature to an English readership. If you listened to episode 20 of the first season, you may remember that translator Eve Bodeux and I discussed the challenges of translated literature on the English language market. Yet 2020, in spite of the general challenges it has brought to us all, is turning out to be quite a successful year for World Editions. Here are some of the questions I asked Judith: Can you tell us about World Editions and its mission? How many titles do you generally publish every year? The US and the UK are infamously difficult markets for books in translation. How has your experience been so far, and do you feel that things may be shifting? What is your biggest market in terms of sales: the US or the UK? Or is it evenly balanced? Have you noticed that certain topics or genres sell better (or less well) on this side of the pond than in the UK, and vice versa? What has the impact of the pandemic been on your sales this year? Did you postpone any publications and/or adapted your marketing and publicity strategy? What went through your head when you found out that Pilar Quintana's The Bitch, which you published earlier this year, was a finalist of the National Book Award for Translated Literature? How did the acquisition of this title happen? Were you already familiar with the author and her work? SHOW NOTES Judith's book recommendation: - Marieke Lucas Rijneveld, The Discomfort of Evening (Graywolf, 2020 for the US edition; Faber & Faber, 2020 for the UK edition; translated from the Dutch by Michele Hutchison) About Judith: Judith Uyterlinde (1962) started as an English, French, Spanish, German, and Portuguese translator for the European Community in Brussels. She wrote literary reviews for the newspaper NRC Handelsblad, and was a commissioning editor and publisher for several Dutch literary publishing houses, such as De Bezige Bij and J.M. Meulenhoff, with a focus on translated literature. Subsequently, she worked as a literary programmer and coordinator for the international literature festival Winternachten in The Hague. She was a judge for the European Literature Prize, the Anton Wachter Prize for literary debuts and the Libris Prize for Dutch novels. Judith has also written several books, one of which, Eisprong, was translated to over twenty languages. She also coordinated the literary ‘Guest of Honour' programme, which presented Dutch and Flemish literature to the international public at the Frankfurt Book fair. Since 2017 she is the Publishing Director at World Editions, an English language publishing house specialized in voices from around the globe.

Vanessa Kingori MBE is nothing if not extraordinarily impressive In 2016, in recognition of her incredible career, she was awarded an MBE in the Queen’s Birthday Honours List. She’s the first female publisher in British Vogue’s 103 year-long history (she’s the commercial counterpart to the magazine’s first male editor, Edward Enninful). She has a degree on management and sociology. She’s worked everywhere from Matches to the Evening Standard to GQ (where, in fact, she became the youngest and first female publisher of GQ, and Condé Nast UK’s first black publisher). She was named one of Britain’s overall Most Influential Black Britons for the past five years by Powerlist magazine, and she was appointed to Sadiq Khan’s Brexit Expert Advisory Panel. Yet, before all of this, Vanessa says the only role she was ever sure she wanted was to be a mother (her own mother is a celebrated midwife). Yet, her journey to motherhood was not without its challenges. She suffered a series of miscarriages, at a time where her career was taking off, and she suffered in silence. It wasn’t until her son Charles, now 14 months, arrived, that the full impact of her grief was felt. Vanessa is our guest this week on The Grace Tales Podcast, in conversation with our founder Georgie Abay, and there are so many fantastic takeaways from the episode, and one of them is the importance of meaningful, impactful work. And no one is more placed to talk about this than Vanessa, who alongside Edward, has transformed the British Vogue business, championing more diversity and inclusion, both within the office and on the pages of the magazine. Perhaps one of the most warming things about Vanessa, is that nothing feels off limits. Whether you’re talking about the big issues - leadership, anti-racism, making real change – or the little things like avoiding a toddler’s puree covered hands when you’re trying to get out the door to work, she’s an open book. This is one of our favourite episodes to date. In today’s conversation, we talk about: Growing up in Kenya, St. Kitts and London. What her mother - a celebrated midwife – has taught her. Her fabulous university job - working part time at Matches. Landing a job as the co-head of magazines at the Evening Standard. Being the first female publisher in the 103-year history of British Vogue. Bringing more diversity into the business — both within the office, and on the pages of the magazine. Anti-racism and what is means to Vanessa. Future-proofing the VOGUE brand. How before her son Charles arrived, she experienced a series of devastating miscarriages. Being a working mother. And of course, her wardrobe (and her closet hacks). Follow @vanessakingoriSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Welcome to episode #21 of the Make Books Travel podcast. Today's guest is Daniel Bunyard, Publishing Director and Head of Non-Fiction Publishing at Penguin Michael Joseph in the UK. Dan has been looking in detail at historical sales of books, in an effort to better understand what people's book buying motivations and patterns are. Why did certain books sell well at a given moment in time, and why did others hardly sell any copies during that same period? And what book buying patterns are we seeing in times of Corona? These are fascinating and important questions to ask for us publishing folks. So let's listen to my conversation with Daniel Bunyard! Show Notes About Daniel: Daniel Bunyard is a Publishing Director and Head of Non-fiction publishing at Penguin Michael Joseph, a division of Penguin Random House. After starting his career in academic publishing, working on history and philosophy titles at Palgrave Macmillan, he worked successively for John Blake, Orion and HarperCollins before moving to Penguin as a commissioning editor for commercial non-fiction. About his research: Daniel's paper on how publishing trends are influenced by historical context has not yet been published. I will update this information with the references once it's available. In the meantime you can watch his interview about this topic with Angus Phillips, who runs the journal that is publishing his article. End of season 1 On a side note, after today's episode I'm putting my recordings on hold for a short while. Even though I won't be traveling, things will get a little crazy and intense in the weeks leading up to and during the virtual Frankfurt Book Fair mid-October, with plenty of video meetings and such. Over the next couple of weeks, I will gradually move to European time, so I can make the most of this important book fair season. I'm in the Pacific time zone, which means there's a 9-hour time difference to overcome. It will be a first to be working on night shifts, and I'm curious to see how it will play out… In any case the podcast will return after the Frankfurt Book Fair with a second season!
