In seinem Roman „Sarah“ erzählt der Amerikaner Scott McClanahan die Geschichte einer gescheiterten Liebe auf so drastische wie tragikomische Weise.Aus dem amerikanischen Englisch von Clemens J. Setzars vivendi VerlagISBN 978-3-7472-0107-7 206 Seiten22 Euro

Smarte Cities und technisch aufgerüstete Häuser versprechen ein bequemes Leben, allerdings zum Preis der totalen Überwachung. Zwei befreundete Ehepaare leben ihre amourösen Abenteuer übers Kreuz und dann ist da noch die abgefahrenste Lovestory der Saison – das alles in der Bücherauswahl vom April. Sie kommen von der Arbeit nach Hause. Ihr Haus erwartet sie, es ist bereit für sie. Es weiss, wie sie sich gerade fühlen und was sie brauchen. Es organisiert etwas zu Essen, es macht dort Licht, wo sie sich hinbewegen. Es ruft Freunde an, wenn sie einsam sind. Kurz es hat Augen und Ohren und überall Sensoren, die alles registrieren. Ein schöner Traum – oder doch eher ein Albtraum? Der Roman «Technophoria» von Niklas Maak spielt mit technischem Wissen von heute und erfindet damit ein mögliches Leben in naher Zukunft. Wie der Autor das macht und wie er diese smarten Cities und Häuser in eine Geschichte verwebt, das diskutieren die Literaturkritikerin Anne-Sophie Scholl und der Literaturprofessor Philipp Theisohn mit Esther Schneider in Literatur im Gespräch. Die weiteren Bücher der Sendung: «Sarah» von Scott McClanahan, die abgefahrenste und verrückteste Liebesgeschichte dieser Saison; sowie «Zwei und Zwei» von Tessa Hadley, eine Geschichte von zwei befreundeten Ehepaaren mit Liebesaffären übers Kreuz. Gäste: Philipp Theisohn, Anne-Sophie Scholl Weitere Themen: - Technophoria von Niklas Maak - Zwei und Zwei von Tessa Hadley - Sarah von Scott McClanahan

Jessica and I are superfans of the Morning News Tournament of Books, and have participated as readers for several years. We are not official partners of the Tournament, nor does it belong to us, but we are hopeful that all involved will take this as a fancast and that readers who haven't heard of it will participate next time. Both of us have encountered books through the Tournament we would never have read otherwise. In this bonus episode, we focus on the books from this year's Tournament (both the long and shortlist) but also end up talking about some highlights from previous years.

Steve Hernandez comes on to discuss The Sarah Book by Scott McClanahan which they don't get to the end. The gendering of grossness, Luis J. Gomez, Louis C.K., alcoholism, marriage, people getting cancelled, trauma, outrage, Skankfest, and then the book.

First episode of The Talking Book Podcast w/ Scott Mclanahan chatting about his life and The Sarah Book. Music by Keegan Grandbois and Alec Sturgis.

Season One, Episode Two — "Thirty Aught Six" Readers, in order of appearance: a. Christalla Fannon, ‘Paper Thin Hotel’ (L. Cohen, 1977) [0.00]; b. Scott McClanahan, ‘Nicky’ [2.47]; c. Juliet Escoria, 'Roadkill' [16.15] Scott McClanahan is the writer of 'The Sarah Book' (Tyrant Books, 2017), 'Crapalachia' (Two Dollar Radio, 2013) and 'Hill William' (Tyrant Books, 2013). He hasn't won any awards or grants. Juliet Escoria wrote 'Juliet the Maniac' (Melville House, 2019), 'Witch Hunt' (Lazy Fascist, 2016) and 'Black Cloud' (CCM/Emily Books, 2014).

The Sarah Book is master storyteller Scott McClanahan's portrait of new love, young heartbreak, the coming together of families, and families coming undone. As much as this book takes place in Appalachia, it also takes place in the universe. Its landscapes are the highways and basements and dirty rooms where we are eternally condemned and redeemed. McClanahan has written a love letter to divorce, in a language somewhere between Romantic poetry and a distilled mountain twang. The Sarah Book is an unforgettable tale told by one of today's finest writers.

Scott McClanahan discusses two of his close-to- the-bone and personal novels: The Sarah Book and Crapalachia: A Biography of Place.

Caca Dolce: Essays from a Lowbrow Life (Soft Skull Press) From a cult favorite and indie-press bestseller who has been called “the preeminent chronicler of Internet-age malaise” (Lena Dunham) and “an exquisite original” (Chloe Caldwell), a candid, tender, and very funny book about relationships, class, art, sex, money, and family. In a fresh, subversive voice that charts her trajectory from a dead-end California town to a burgeoning career as an author and illustrator, cult favorite Chelsea Martin returns with her debut essay collection, Caca Dolce: Essays from a Lowbrow LIfe. Blending the poignant wit of David Sedaris in his bestseller Dress Your Family in Corduroy and Denim with the feminist candor of Melissa Broder’s So Sad Today and Jessi Klein’s You’ll Grow Out of It, CACA DOLCE is a book about relationships, class, art, sex, money, and family—and about growing up weird, and poor, in the late 1990s and early 2000s. Chelsea examines her varied experiences: as an eleven-year- old atheist, trying to will an alien visitation to her neighborhood; fighting with her stepfather and grappling with a Tourette’s diagnosis as she becomes a teenager; falling under the sway of frenemies and crushes in high school; going into debt to afford what might be a meaningless education at an expensive art college; navigating the messy process of falling in love with a close friend; and struggling for independence from her emotionally manipulative father and her hometown family and friends. Praise for Caca Dolce: “Martin’s honest writing exists above the confines of fear and social norms. She is a breath of pure oxygen in a literary environment that often shies away from female grit. . . her writing is sweaty, uncomfortable, and enchanting. She taps into the consciousness of her past selves with precision and care, respecting the integrity and desires of those younger women. A sure hit for fans of Sara Benincasa’s Agorafabulous! and Lena Dunham’s Not That Kind of Girl.” —Booklist (starred review) “A wild ride of a memoir, and a true glimpse into the mind of an artist as she’s figuring out what life is all about.” —Nylon “Martin, a writer who’s earned a cult following with her books Mickey and Even Though I Don’t Miss You, turns to nonfiction in her debut essay collection, bringing her irreverent voice to tales of childhood, crushes, art school and the California town she grew up in where people just can’t seem to leave.” —Huffington Post “The arc of growing self-awareness lends the story both gravity and an odd appeal.”—Kirkus Reviews “Deeply human—it’s a lonely book that made me feel less alone.” —Melissa Broder, author of So Sad Today “I highly enjoyed Caca Dolce—a weird, funny, moving, complex memoir that’s excitingly like if Diane Williams edited a 500-page novel down to 200 pages.” —Tao Lin, author of Taipei “Chelsea Martin is one of the best American writers alive. Savage and sharp, tender and hilarious, Martin’s Caca Dolce is a book like she’s never written before. You’ll only think one thing after reading it. Chelsea Martin can do anything.” —Scott McClanahan, author of The Sarah Book “Chelsea Martin delivers neon electric jolts of reality in deadpan perfection. Refreshing, hilarious, self-deprecating, as far from pretentious as you can get.” —Molly Brodak, author of Bandit “I’m probably not Chelsea Martin’s biggest fan because I’m sure she has legitimate stalkers, but I’m way up there. Gold, gold I tell ya.” —Mary Miller, author of The Last Days of California “If David Sedaris were younger, hipper, and had once subscribed to Cat Fancy, he might write like this.”—Elizabeth Ellen, author of Person/a Chelsea Martin is the author of Everything Was Fine Until Whatever;The Really Funny Thing About Apathy; Even Though I Don’t Miss You, which was named one of the Best Indie Books of 2013 by Dazed magazine; and Mickey. Her work has appeared in publications including Buzzfeed, Hobart, Lenny Letter, Vice, and Catapult, and chosen as a Notable Essay in Best American Essays 2016. She is a comic artist and illustrator and the creative director of Universal Error and currently lives in Washington State.

Episode 1 of The Talking Book podcast featuring the author of The Sarah Book (6/20/2017) Scott McClanahan, and excerpt of his new book.

Scott McClanahan is from West Virginia, which accounts for his twang, and also for his love/hate relationship with the American South. In his 2013 memoir, Crapalachia, McClanahan tells his origin story, growing up in the backwoods of the South. McClanahan is a lovable nihilist when he discusses his writing, as producer Eliza Smith discovered when she spoke with Scott about his work for the Organist. This episode also features “The Firestarter,†one of McClanahan’s short stories that Smith adapted into a radio play for the Organist, in which a man causes car accidents by virtue of his being there to witness them. CREDITS Produced by Eliza Smith. Radio play adapted by Eliza Smith and Jacob Winik with original music by Carly Bond and Robert Shelton.

Mike Bushnell is the guest. His latest poetry collection is called OHSO, and it's available now from Scrambler Books. Scott McClanahan says "OHSO is revolutionary. It has seen death. Mike Bushnell is a ghost of the classics." And Beach Sloth says "Mike Bushnell is a tornado of a person. Everything around him gets sucked into his vortex. What comes out are some of the single best lines I have encountered. The energy he possesses with live readings translates extremely well into the written word. OHSO has been a long time a coming but thank goodness it is finally here." Monologue topics:  moving, schedule changes.       Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
