John Lennon was a walking contradiction: a violent pacifist and a creative genius marred by creative inconsistency. Just as he was getting his groove back he was gunned down by Mark David Chapman, a self-loathing narcissist obsessed with his contradictory hero, as well as Lennon’s musical rival, Todd Rundgren and J.D. Salinger’s angsty Holden Caulfield from The Catcher In The Rye. Hear how all of these factors and more contributed to the musical icon’s senseless murder in the second chapter of a two part Disgraceland episode.

In Episode 229, Sarah talks with Laura B. McGrath about her new book, Middlemen, and the behind-the-scenes role literary agents play in publishing. They discuss what agents actually do, how they shape an author's career, the hype surrounding debut novels, and what Laura learned while researching one of publishing's least visible professions. Plus, Laura shares her book recommendations. This post contains affiliate links through which I make a small commission when you make a purchase (at no cost to you!).

McGrath (April 28) | Amazon | Bookshop.org  Why a literary agent's most important job isn't what most readers think. What agents are really looking for when they decide to represent an author. The surprising amount of homework agents do before signing a new client. The hype surrounding debut novels — and some of the downsides that come with it.

Sitat historiker og kongehusekspert Ole-Jørgen Schulsrud-Hansen: I mitt kaotiske sinn har jeg lenge grublet på en tematikk som kunne passet for Sidequest: Når får vi den norske spillromanen? Alle generasjoner har sin forfatter som definerer dem og deres verden. Være seg J. D. Salinger og "Catcher in the Rye", eller Roy Jacobsens "seierherrene". Hvis man tenker på hvor mange som faktisk spiller dataspill, er det relevant å tenke også "hvorfor" den norske spillromanen ikke har kommet ennå. Vi har fått den internasjonale versjonen i "Ready Player One", men hvor er den norske?Dere kjenner meg: Jeg er ikke vond å be når sånne meldinger ramler inn i innboksen. Klart det er mulig å prate nesten en hel time om dette?! God helg! Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

In this episode, I reflect on rereading Cormac McCarthy's All the Pretty Horses as a coming-of-age novel and bring it into conversation with one of my favorite books from high school, J.D. Salinger's The Catcher in the Rye. I explore the tragic and beautiful passage into adulthood — the loss of innocence, the grief of seeing the world more clearly, and the difficult courage it takes to keep loving, working, and showing up anyway.I also connect these themes to my work as a therapist with adolescents and young adults, where therapy can become a kind of initiation space — a place to grieve what is lost, discover what is gained, and learn how to care less about the crowd while caring more about the right people. Along the way, I bring in the idea of la lucha — the struggle, the fight, the refusal to let the bastards get you down — as part of what adulthood asks of us.

Joana Osman ist Autorin, Dozentin, Friedensaktivistin und Storytelling-Coach. Sie spricht mit Günter über die Geschichten, die sie besonders geprägt und inspiriert und manchmal auch getröstet haben. Für den Buchclub hat sie vier Bücher mitgebracht, die sie seit Jahren begleiten: von J. D. Salinger über Alice Walker und Mark Twain bis zu Isabel Allende.Es geht um literarische Heldenreisen und um die Frage, warum Geschichten uns nicht nur helfen, die Welt zu verstehen, sondern sie vielleicht auch zu verändern. Denn "alle Geschichten speisen sich aus der Realität und die ganze Realität speist sich aus Geschichten, aus Narrativen, die wir uns über uns selbst und über andere erzählen", so Joana Osman.Alle Bücher dieser Folge:Joana Osman: "Wenn wir vom Fliegen träumen" (C.Bertelsmann), "Am Boden des Himmels" (Atlantik Verlag), "Wo die Geister tanzen" (C.Bertelsmann), "Frieden. Eine reale Utopie" (Penguin), J. D. Salinger: "Franny und Zooey" (Rowohlt Taschenbuch), "Der Fänger im Roggen" (Rowohlt Taschenbuch), Alice Walker: "Die Farbe Lila" (Nagel & Kimche), Mark Twain: "Die Abenteuer des Huckleberry Finn" (Reclam Verlag), Isabel Allende: "Das Geisterhaus" (Suhrkamp Verlag).+++ Viel Spaß mit dieser Folge.

In what promises to be the snappiest episode of the podcast to date, we do a deep dive into the early years of Mike Allred's signature creation, Frank Einstein (sometimes but not exclusively also known as “Madman” in the comics themselves) at Tundra Publishing and Dark Horse Comics. Born of a desire to fuse existentialism with costumed adventure, Allred mixes ‘50s sci-fi movies, Silver Age comics, David Bowie lyrics, a dash of Mary Shelley and J.D. Salinger, and a whole lot of other influences and ingredients. With heart-on-its-sleeve earnestness tempered by gonzo absurdity, Madman asks the big questions: What makes us human? Is evil necessary to define good? Does God exist? But most importantly: Isn't it super-neat-o to have a girlfriend?Discussed in this episode: Madman #1-3, Madman Adventures #1-3, Madman Comics #1-10, plus material from Creatures of the Id #1 (recently and conveniently collected as Madman Omnibus Volume 1 from Dark Horse Comics)Man oh man, did you know you can back the podcast and get a monthly newsletter and Fifth Week Bonus episodes at patreon.com/ironageofcomics?

Welcome to another collaboration between myself and myself and my old ally 'from across the pond', John Fontaine. This conversation takes us through the world of literature—our own personal experiences with it, the books and stories that have influenced us, and the creative process we now use to produce our own literature (non-fincion for myself, fiction, poetry and biography for John). We talk about known literature works such as: Stephen King's IT, The Hardy Boys Mystery Stories, the Bible... We mention authors like J.D.Salinger, Gerald Durrell, Tolkien, Shakespeare and many more. And of course, our own works—especially John's latest spy-novel Turn the Page and my own Father-Wound and the Blueprint for Masculinity. We also reflect on the writing process, its many twists and turns, and what it takes to produce a finished book as an independent author. If you enjoy literature of any kind, this podcast episode has something to offer you! You can watch the video here: www.youtube.com/watch?v=O9fGU_JRb7M

In Jane Stahl's series discussing the literature that informed her life and career, she shares a play that she'd written for a graduate school slide show project featuring characters from a variety of the literature she taught in a class she developed titled "Man's Search for Meaning" in Colorado in the early 1970's. The main characters are Samuel Beckett's bums GoGo & DiDi from Waiting for Godot. They are visited by Franny from Salinger's Franny and Zooey, Emily from Thornton Wilder's Our Town, Sabina and Mr. Antrobus from Wilder's Skin of Our Teeth, Viktor Frankl from Man's Search for Meaning, Meursault from Camus' The Stranger. Each character has advice for the two misfits, advice Jane considered as she discovered herself.

Gilles Paris "L'attrape-mots" (Editions Héloïse d'Ormesson)Jade, adolescente rebelle, est amoureuse de Holden, le protagoniste de L'Attrape-cœurs. Grâce à lui, elle échappe à la tragique réalité de sa vie. Mais qui est-elle vraiment : une enfant blessée, une affabulatrice ? Plongée dans la fragilité de l'adolescence, L'Attrape-mots est un roman tendre, avec J.D. Salinger en guest star. L'histoire d'un amour fictif, à travers un roman doux et sensible sur l'adolescence et la quête de soi. Avec un ton poétique tout en délicatesse, Gilles Paris nous entraine dans un tourbillon d'émotions, et une série de récits emboités comme des poupées russes, allant du faux au vrai, du mensonge à l'apprentissage de soi.Musique : Hu Man "Greentea Peng"Hébergé par Ausha.

The world's greatest masterwork creators make their work when they have something to say. When the work feels honest. When their art feels right. They don't play a game of putting products out because they're afraid of falling behind because that wouldn't be sovereign, honest and honorable. It would be weak. And over time, weak never endures.Let's go even deeper. The real game to play is one where your work influences, affects and uplifts multiple generations. Short-term producers are consumed by trends, algorithms and immediate visibility.

At the request of a dear friend, Jane shares pieces of J.D. Salinger's Catcher in the Rye and Franny and Zooey that served as formative in her self-discovery as a 20-year-old beginning her teaching career. Like Franny, Jane found teaching as service to a high calling. Salinger gave her the words to express her intention. Alert: the episode is long and perhaps of interest to literature lovers only.

In this episode, Nancy Griffin welcomes author and SuperAgerSusan Salinger to discuss the hidden barriers women face regarding health and aging. Sue shares her journey of research, personal stories, and practical advice for women to prioritize their well-being, dismantle stigma, and embrace later life with purpose and connection.About SusanSusan Salenger is a non-fiction writer, an avid reader, and a passionate foodie with a particular love for dark chocolate. For more than 25 years, she and her husband owned Salenger Films, a company that produced and distributed corporate training films worldwide.Her book, Sidelined: How Women Can Navigate a Broken Healthcare System, was published by She Writes Press on April 12, 2022. The book explores the barriers women face inobtaining the best possible medical care. Salenger examines the persistent gender bias within the healthcare system and the ways in which women are often treated differently from men. Even in recent years, inequities remain.Sue also addresses the internal barriers many women face.Women frequently put their own health behind the needs of their families, and some experience guilt when they become ill, which can influence critical medical decisions and lead to regret. Through extensive research and in-depth interviews, she uncovers the emotional conflicts many women experience when navigating complex healthcare choices.Sidelined includes a comprehensive resource directory offering services and support to help women determine the best path forward for their healthcare needs.Key Takeaways:Self-blame and shame impact women's health decisions. Women often withhold illness due to stigma and cultural expectations. They are ashamed to go to the doctor and embarrassed to ask questions. For many diseases, women have different symptomsfrom men. Autoimmune diseases and Illnesses like heart attacks and chronic pain often have had trouble getting diagnosed. The doctor says “It's all in your head” because there is no data to support women's symptoms, which reinforces women's proclivity to blame themselves. This creates a vicious circle. Many times, Illnesses are random, but we tend to give disease a meaning. There are alcoholics that don't have a liver problem and people with lung cancer that have never smoked. De-stigmatization is the first step on the road to transparency and health. Self-advocacy and soliciting second opinions in critical to navigate a broken healthcare system. Do your research. Understand your diagnosis. Get a second opinion. Social connections, purpose, and community are paramount for mental and physical health. Find something that gives you self-satisfaction and makes you feel good about yourself. Prioritize meaningful connection.

James welcomes Aston Villa fan Lee Jackson and Leeds United fan Ed Salinger on to Clash of the Correspondents ahead of the meeting between the two clubs at Villa Park on Saturday. The title may look beyond Villa, but there's still plenty to play for as they try and hold on to a Champions League qualification spot and they will fancy their chances of going deep in the Europa League too.

“Here they come, marching into American sunlight.” In Episode 33, DDSWTNP follow Mao II from this opening line into a chilling view of a mass Moonie wedding at Yankee Stadium, and on into the story of reclusive novelist Bill Gray, whose work, maybe, has a chance of deprogramming the mind and language of Karen Janney, one of the participants in that wedding – but maybe not, given the totalizing dominance by images that this novel documents. Our conversation delves into the several rich dialogues Mao II is known for, especially that about (quoting Bill) the “curious knot that binds novelists and terrorists,” the differing attempts by writers and bomb-makers to “alter the inner life of the culture” and “make raids on human consciousness” that DeLillo juxtaposes in this novel, which follows the writer from his cloying “bunker” to London, Athens, and (almost) Lebanon, while also taking in scenes from Iran, China, and the homeless encampments of lower Manhattan. Throughout we discuss the many followers of and sequels to Mao and Maoism DeLillo analyzes, all the ways his characters foolishly seek, outside the values of deep reading and the novel, scenes of “total vision” and messianic “total being,” the “lightning-lit” language of information and the terrorist's mastery of “the language of being noticed.” We examine in detail as well the effects of Andy Warhol's work as DeLillo sees it; what it means that readers never learn much at all about the content of Bill's famous novels; the commonalities he has with Rushdie, Salinger, Pynchon, and DeLillo himself; and why terrorist go-between George Haddad loves word processors so much. We also have a lot to say about the ailing, injured body and spirit of Bill Gray, as well as the simplicity of spoons and what they might teach us about objects and art. Mao II is a book that, as we say in the episode, sums up much of the DeLillo that came before it, lays the groundwork for the masterpiece to come, and contains so many of what have come to seem over the years since 1991 (and over the run of our episodes) the foundational DeLillo ideas and questions, especially ones about politics, violence, and images. Hope you'll have a listen and, if moved, tell us what you think! Texts referred to in this episode: David Cowart, Don DeLillo: The Physics of Language. Athens: U. of Georgia P., 2002. “Mao II is a sort of rest-and-motion book, to invent a category.  The first half of the book could have been called ‘The Book,' Bill Gray talking about his book, piling up manuscript pages, living in a house that operates as a kind of filing cabinet for his work and all the other work it engenders. And the second half of the book could have been called ‘The World.'  Here, Bill escapes his book and enters the world. It turns out to be the world of political violence . . . I was nearly finished with the first half of the book before I realized how the second half ought to be shaped. I was writing blind . . .” –“Don DeLillo: The Art of Fiction CXXXV,” The Paris Review 128 (1993): 274-306. Interview by Adam Begley. “I called him Bill Gray just as a provisional name,” DeLillo says. “I used to say to friends, 'I want to change my name to Bill Gray and disappear.' I've been saying it for 10 years. But he began to fit himself into the name, and I decided to leave it.” –Vince Passaro, “Dangerous Don DeLillo,” New York Times Magazine, May 19, 1991 (https://www.nytimes.com/1991/05/19/magazine/dangerous-don-delillo.html) Mark Osteen, American Magic and Dread: Don DeLillo's Dialogue with Culture. Philadelphia: U. of Pennsylvania P., 2000. Sources of interlude clips from Warhol and Moon: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9vCKc7r8U8Ehttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GiCYKJc_VwI

Joyce Maynard has been writing for 53 years. At 18, she landed on the cover of the New York Times Magazine, caught the eye of J.D. Salinger, and disappeared into a relationship that would define her for decades—until she finally told her story and was called a "predator" by Maureen Dowd. In this conversation, Joyce talks about being canceled before canceling was a thing, surviving as a Me Too survivor before Me Too became a movement, and why she returned to Yale at 65 only to discover she reads in the 17th percentile.  TIMELINE: 00:35 Being canceled before it was a thing 01:47 The New York Times Magazine cover story at 18 03:29 JD Salinger's letter and the beginning of their relationship 04:30 Moving in with Salinger and giving up Yale 05:39 Keeping the secret for 25 years 06:22 Writing "At Home in the World" and the backlash 08:26 When 18-year-olds dating 53-year-olds was "romantic" 09:41 The Charlie Rose interview (and what happened after) 10:27 Why the culture turned against her in 1998 11:23 Can you separate the artist from the art? 13:25 Teaching memoir to women in Guatemala 15:45 Writing family sagas and "How the Light Gets In" 16:31 Growing up in a problematic family 17:00 Mother's writing bootcamp from age 3 22:23 Including real-world events (Trump, January 6th) in fiction 24:09 Writing is not therapy or catharsis 29:43 Throwing away manuscripts that aren't good enough 30:08 Discovering ADHD at Yale at age 65 32:08 The D-minus French exam that changed everything 34:22 Reading in the 17th percentile 36:39 The gift of ADHD 40:39 "You cannot be a writer if you're not a reader" - and why that's wrong 41:48 Character-first vs. plot-first writing 43:33 Never knowing where the story will end (vs. John Irving) 44:18 No outlines - "outline is for a term paper" 46:22 Finding inspiration in news headlines 47:49 Why some stories are memoir and others are fiction 50:48 On sensitivity readers and the transgender character 51:44 When characters display "politically incorrect" attitudes 52:57 Fear of cancellation from the left 53:29 Trigger warnings at Yale and the softening of everything

With special guest Longinus, the boys drink and review a raspberry cookie stout from Great Lakes Brewing, then discuss a famous American novel. It's not quite a Christmas book, but Holden Caulfield gets kicked out of his prep school just before Christmas, so it's close enough. Longinus starts off with some biographical info on Salinger, then the boys dive into the novel. The book is written as if it's by Holden, a young man of about 16. The novel is all about tone -- about the attitude and perspective of Holden -- his angst and his worries.The whole idea of adolescence was new when The Catcher in the Rye came out, and Salinger tried to capture it in this novel. From Holden's point of view, everything is either depressing, phony, corny, or boring. The Catcher in the Rye is often called a coming of age novel. If you're curious about this classic, give a listen and let us know what you think.

In its duration, geographical reach, and ferocity, World War II was unprecedented, and the effects on those who fought it and their loved ones at home, immeasurable. The heroism of the men and women who won the war may be well documented, but we know too little about the pain and hardships the veterans endured upon their return home. As historian David Nasaw makes evident in his masterful recontextualization of these years, the veterans who came home to America were not the same people as those who had left for war, and the nation to which they returned was not the one they had left behind. Contrary to the prevailing narratives of triumph, here are the largely unacknowledged realities the veterans—and the nation—faced that radically reshaped our understanding of this era as a bridge to today. The Wounded Generation: Coming Home After World War II (Penguin, 2025) tells the indelible stories of the veterans and their loved ones as they confronted the aftershocks of World War II. Veterans suffering from recurring nightmares, uncontrollable rages, and social isolation were treated by doctors who had little understanding of PTSD. They were told that they were suffering from nothing more than battle fatigue and that time would cure it. When their symptoms persisted, they were given electro-shock treatments and lobotomies, while the true cause of their distress would remain undiagnosed for decades to come. Women who had begun working outside the home were pressured to revert to their prewar status as housewives dependent on their husbands. Returning veterans and their families were forced to double up with their parents or squeeze into overcrowded, substandard shelters as the country wrestled with a housing crisis. Divorce rates doubled. Alcoholism was rampant. Racial tensions heightened as White southerners resorted to violence to sustain the racial status quo. To ease the veterans' readjustment to civilian life, Congress passed the GI Bill, but Black veterans were disproportionately denied their benefits, and the consequences of this discrimination would endure long after the war was won. In this richly textured examination, Dr. Nasaw presents a complicated portrait of those who brought the war home with them, among whom were the period's most influential political and cultural leaders, including John F. Kennedy, Robert Dole, and Henry Kissinger; J. D. Salinger and Kurt Vonnegut; Harry Belafonte and Jimmy Stewart. Drawing from veterans' memoirs, oral histories, and government documents, Dr. Nasaw illuminates a hidden chapter of American history—one of trauma, resilience, and a country in transition. This interview was conducted by Dr. Miranda Melcher whose book focuses on post-conflict military integration, understanding treaty negotiation and implementation in civil war contexts, with qualitative analysis of the Angolan and Mozambican civil wars.

This one's a little break from the usual — it's me talking to a friend about my new novel, Look, I'm Gone with a particular emphasis on the iconic American author JD Salinger, who has a meaty role as a character in my book, playing himself, kind of a first for Salinger, who passed away in 2010. My friend Ted Cleary is a writer, artist, and musician from New York City. He studied English and history at Columbia University and has taught writing and literature for several decades. He's been a landscape gardener, assistant district attorney, and stroke oar for an American rowing team racing traditional Irish fishing boats in western Ireland. Two energetic novellas, At the End of the World and Song of the Cicada, are available on Amazon, and he has recently launched Substack as tedcleary1. The KunstlerCast theme music is the beautiful Two Rivers Waltz written and performed by Larry Unger

John Lennon was a walking contradiction: a violent pacifist and a creative genius marred by creative inconsistency. Just as he was getting his groove back he was gunned down by Mark David Chapman, a self-loathing narcissist obsessed with his contradictory hero, as well as Lennon's musical rival, Todd Rundgren and J.D. Salinger's angsty Holden Caulfield from The Catcher In The Rye. Hear how all of these factors and more contributed to the musical icon's senseless murder in the second chapter of a two part Disgraceland episode.

Nearly 16.4 million Americans served in the U.S. Armed Forces in World War II, and for millions of survivors, the fighting left many of them physically and mentally broken for life. There was a 25% death rate in Japanese POW camps like Bataan, where starvation and torture were rampant, and fierce battles against suicidal Imperial Japanese forces, like at Iwo Jima, where 6,800 Americans died. Additionally, the psychological toll of witnessing Holocaust atrocities and enduring up to three years away from home intensified the war’s brutality. This is why when they returned home, they had physical and psychological wounds that festered, sometimes for years, sometimes for decades, and sometimes for the rest of their lives. Veterans suffering from recurring nightmares, uncontrollable rages, and social isolation were treated by doctors who had little understanding of PTSD, a term that didn’t enter the DSM until 1984. Returning veterans and their families were forced to double up with their parents or squeeze into overcrowded, substandard shelters as the country wrestled with a housing crisis. Divorce rates doubled, with more than 1 million GIs leaving or being left by their wives by 1950. Alcoholism was rampant, and an entire generation became addicted to smoking. To explore this dark shadow that hung over the WW2 generation, we’re joined by David Nasaw, author of The Wounded Generation: Coming Home After World War II. Those affected include the period’s most influential political and cultural leaders, including John F. Kennedy, Robert Dole, and Henry Kissinger; J. D. Salinger and Kurt Vonnegut; Harry Belafonte and Jimmy Stewart. We look at the ways the horrors of World War 2 shaped their lives, but we also see incredible resilience and those who found ways to move past the horrors of their wartime experiences, and what we can learn from that today.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Well, there's no way around it: the very first feature is about Black activism, written by a white author (Kim) who gets no help from her editor on how not to sound tone-deaf as she describes being judged by the color of her skin or feeling unwelcome in Black spaces. So let's quickly dispense with it and move on to the rest. Karen finds three couples to talk about their couplehood. Amy Turner -- who checks in from the present day, because she's Pam's friend IRL -- visits Antarctica. Everyone on staff shares their stress relief tips. Plus: foods that trigger headaches, Danielle from Niagara Falls quoting J.D. Salinger at Stuff You Wrote, Ian Ziering on dating girls his parents didn't like, how atheism Happened to this month's Me, and more! Draw a soothing bath and listen! QUICK LINKS

What do J.D. Salinger's Catcher in the Rye and the Holy Bible have in common? They both contain explicit instructions to kill John Lennon—or at least, according to Mark David Chapman, they do. And guess what? Chapman's been up to some stuff since that fateful day in 1980 when he snuffed out the life of the quote-unquote “Smart” Beatle. In this episode, the boys find out exactly what the fame-hungry murderer has been up to since our original coverage of him in Episode 315 on the Last Podcast on the Left—which includes being denied parole a grand total of THIRTEEN TIMES. Maybe he should've given peace a chance, huh?
