La atmósfera del relato escrito en el año 1967 y narrado en primera persona es bastante intensa desde un primer momento. El oyente puede experimentar un intenso malestar ante la insistencia de la protagonista de hablar con el Sr. Morrison, como si algo realmente no anduviese bien. Reestrenamos Sexo y/o el Sr. Morrison con sonido mejorado. Sin duda tiene unas extrañas afectaciones por el Sr. Morrison que se acentúan cuando decide allanar la morada de este. Para más inri cuando el Sr. Morrison vuelve a su apartamento ella se esconde allí para verlo hacer...sus cosas de solterón. Y todo esto contado con un tono bastante neutro, como si fuera lo más normal del mundo oler camisas usadas y comer queso bajo un escritorio. En varias ocasiones hace pensar en que tenemos un narrador no fiable, pero luego sucede que la autora Carol Emshwiller le da la vuelta al relato y todo lo que teníamos preconcebido se viene abajo, desencadenando un sentimiento de repulsa y horror aún mayor que ver a una criatura obsesionándose de tal forma con el vecino de arriba. Hay una mezcla de ciencia ficción, terror y fantasía... La narradora experimenta hacia el esquivo Morrison una fascinación creciente, y esta fascinación muy pronto deja el terreno de lo previsible: Deténganse a pensar sólo una cosa. Hay solamente dos sexos y cada uno de nosotros pertenece a uno de ellos, y sin duda —o al menos es lo más probable— cada uno sabe algo acerca del otro. Pero pudo ser ahí en donde yo cometí mi error: ¿nunca han pensado ustedes...? Bueno, eso que yo comencé a pensar: ‘Ha de haber Otros entre nosotros’”. La narradora se dedica, pues, a encontrar el rastro de los Otros, es decir de aquellos que viven escondidos o camuflados, precisamente porque no son ni hombres ni mujeres y tampoco lo que eufemísticamente se llama “tercer sexo”, porque esto, en última instancia, sólo se entiende como una combinatoria de los otros dos sexos/géneros (ya el mero hecho de llamarlo “tercero” es confirmar la regla de los “dos” y mantenerla precisamente como paradigma, ley binaria, mandato divino, dogma, estereotipo, etcétera). La narradora de este cuento sospecha, pues, que el señor Morrison no es uno de los “Normales” sino precisamente uno de esos silenciosos y obliterados “Otros”, un ser radicalmente distinto, humano pero otro, y cuya sola presencia (e incluso la mera hipótesis, la sospecha imaginativa) arroja una luz violenta sobre la exclusividad de los “dos” (la “exacta modularidad” queda cuestionada por un elemento supernumerario en la ecuación). Dispuesta a jugarse el todo por el todo, la narradora se oculta en el apartamento de Morrison (ella es pequeña y delgada) y lo espera durante lo que parece una eternidad. Finalmente el individuo llega y pasado un rato se desnuda de espaldas a su trémula contempladora.... Juzguen ustedes mismos.... Carol Emshwiller ( 12 de abril de 1921) nació Agnes Carolyn Fries en Ann Arbor, Michigan, la mayor de los cuatro hijos de Charles y Agnes (Carswell) Fries. Al crecer, pasó varios años en Francia y Alemania mientras su padre, profesor de inglés y lingüística, estaba de año sabático. Se graduó de la Universidad de Michigan con una licenciatura en música en 1945, se unió a la Cruz Roja, ayudando a las tropas estadounidenses en la Italia de la posguerra, luego regresó a Ann Arbor para la escuela de arte. Se casó con su compañero estudiante de arte Ed Emshwiller en 1949. Juntos, asistieron a la Ecole Nationale Superieure des Beaux-Arts (1949-1950), recorrieron Europa en una motocicleta y finalmente se establecieron en Levittown, Nueva York, donde tuvieron tres hijos, en 1955, 1957 y 1959. Emshwiller comenzó a publicar ciencia ficción a mediados de la década de 1950, después de que su esposo le presentara a personas clave dentro del género, quien se convirtió en uno de los principales artistas del género de la época. En 1974, Emshwiller se convirtió en profesora asistente adjunta en la Universidad de Nueva York y publicó su primera colección de cuentos, Joy in Our Cause . Ella ha seguido publicando casi sin parar desde entonces. Sus novelas incluyen Carmen Dog (1998), The Mount (2002), Mister Boots (2005) y The Secret City.(2007). La también autora de ciencia ficción Ursula K. Le Guin la elogió como una "fabulista importante, una maravillosa realista mágica, una de las voces feministas más fuertes, complejas y consistentes en la ficción"; hasta la fecha, Emshwiller ha ganado un premio World Fantasy, un premio Philip K. Dick, dos premios Nebula y un premio World Fantasy por su trayectoria (en 2005). Desde la muerte de su esposo en 1990, ha dividido su tiempo entre la ciudad de Nueva York y Owens Valley, California. Falleció a la edad de 97 años el día 2 de febrero de 2019. ¡Únete a la nave de Historias para ser Leídas y conviértete en uno de nuestros taberneros galácticos por solo 1,49 € al mes!

Today's True Weird Stuff - Secret City   Sarov is a town in Russia that no longer exists...officially, that is. In the 1940s, Sarov was removed from all unclassified maps, and the entire town was transformed into a center for research and development of nuclear weapons. Dozens of cities like these popped up in the Soviet Union at the time, as Stalin led the charge to bolster their nuclear weapons program. But strict rules and harsh conditions meant...sometimes mistakes were made.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

For this episode, host Andrew Keen sits down with James Kirchick, journalist and author of the New York Times bestseller Secret City: the Hidden History of Gay Washington. They discuss the historical exclusion of gay individuals within American democracy, with a particular emphasis on the challenges - from legal persecution to professional exclusion, and social stigmatization, Kirchick and Keen explore how political attitudes towards gay rights have evolved, intertwining with broader cultural and political shifts. Kirchick describes the gradual inclusion of homosexuals in the democratic process, highlighting key moments of setbacks and progress over the past century. The conversation explores significant events such as the Kinsey report in 1948, the Alger Hiss case, McCarthyism, and the political landscape during the 1960s, 1970s and 1980s. The emergence of homosexuality as a national political issue, alongside movements like gay liberation and the AIDS crisis, had a profound impact on American politics and society. When America openly accepted homosexuals into its civic and cultural life, it marked a significant enhancement of its democracy.

Exploring the Joys of Creativity and Process: Experimenting with Literary Analyses and Artistic EndeavorsIn this episode, the hosts celebrate the beginning of the new year and the launch of their show's 6th season. One exciting topic discussed is Christopher Alexander's 'pattern language.' The concept focuses on the relationship between elements at varying scales, whether from macro to micro, to design cities or building elements. The host shares his experiment with software called 'Obsidian' to create a network of patterns analogous to the pattern language. Meanwhile, the other host demonstrates his reinterpretation of process through artwork, showcasing a step-by-step creation of a sketch he created using different mediums. They also touch on a nostalgic favorite - Mark Kistler's 'Secret City' and the half-hour creative spur it offers, inspiring people to draw and cultivate imagination.00:00 Introduction and New Year Wishes00:55 Discussing the New Year and Season02:05 Reflecting on the Past Year07:20 Exploring the Concept of a Pattern Language11:11 Using Obsidian for Note Taking20:42 Reflecting on the Process of Drawing29:57 Closing Thoughts and Future Plans Support the showBuy some Coffee!

Baxie talks to Aaron Lange, the author and illustrator of the new book "Ain't it Fun: Peter Laughner and Proto-Punk in the Secret City". The book is an incredibly ambitious story of the complicated history and culture of one of America's most misunderstood cities--Cleveland, Ohio. It's also a story about one of Cleveland's most influential and iconic figures--the late Peter Laughner of the band Pere Ubu. Until now, Laughner's life and legacy has gone largely underrecognized. However, he is responsible for creating some of the greatest anthems in American Punk Rock history! And Aaron's Lange's book does an amazing job connecting Laughner's life to city from where he came.

James (Jamie) Kirchick is an author, columnist for Tablet magazine, historian, podcaster, and staunch believer in/defender of liberal values — and he'll speak up against any party/group currently trampling on them. He began his journalism career writing about domestic and foreign politics; his first book, The End of Europe focused on the rise of populism in the continent (paid subscribers — stay tuned for some bonus content on this topic!). The first part of this conversation is all about Jamie's second book, The Secret City, which explored the fascinating gay history of Washington D.C. and how the extreme homophobia of our country gave way, rather rapidly over the course of the 20th century, towards cultural acceptance and legal equality. The second half of this conversation we debate the pros and cons of the word “queer” and the “queer movement” — which Jamie discussed at length in his thought-provoking Liberties article “From Queer to Gay to Queer” (you can find a truncated version of his argument in his article for The Atlantic, “The Struggle for Gay Rights Is Over”). If you want to hear the preamble that precipitated this conversation, check out our episode with Eli Lake about art and offense. Check out our ‘Uncertainty' newsletter for updates and rants.

Aredhel becomes weary of Gondolin and leaves. She is ensnared by Eöl, a Teleri who dwells in darkness and despises the Noldor. Eöl takes her as his wife, and they have a son, Maeglin. Mother and Son flee to Gondolin but are pursued by Eöl who is taken by guards before Turgon. Turgon gives him a fateful choice: Stay forever, or die. Three friends read and react to the greatest story you've never heard — the Silmarillion by J.R.R. Tolkien. 01:17 Greg reads pages 125-130 from the Silmarillion, 2nd Edition 29:42 Recap "In the telling of these tales there was awakened in Aredhel a desire to see her own kin again, and she marvelled that she had grown weary of the light of Gondolin, and the fountains in the sun, and the green sward of Tumladen under the windy skies of spring; moreover she was often alone in the shadows when both her son and her husband were away. Of these tales also grew the first quarrels of Maeglin and Eöl. For by no means would his mother reveal to Maeglin where Turgon dwelt, nor by what means one might come thither, and he bided his time, trusting yet to wheedle the secret from her, or perhaps to read her unguarded mind; but ere that could be done he desired to look on the Noldor and speak with the sons of Fëanor, his kin, that dwelt not far away."

This week, Alan, Quinta and Scott were joined by Rational Security co-host emeritus Shane Harris! Together they talked through the week's big national security news stories, including: “We Want to Believe.” The House recently held a rare public hearing on what the U.S. government knows about Unidentified Aerial Phenomena, or UAPs–also commonly called Unidentified Flying Objects, or UFOs. What did we learn about UAPs and how is U.S. policy towards them changing?“Strategic Incongruity.” President Biden once again said the United States would defend Taiwan against Chinese aggression, only to have White House staff roll back his statement and confirm that there has been no change in the longstanding U.S. policy of “strategic ambiguity” on this issue. Can this policy survive the president's repeated statements? And if so, what's replacing it?“Getting Thirsty in Hungary.” The premiere U.S. conservative organization CPAC is holding a part of its annual conference in Hungary, where far right leader Viktor Orban called for a transnational conservative movement. What will this budding relationship mean for the future of conservative movements at home and abroad?For object lessons, Quinta encouraged folks to revisit Terry Pratchett's classic "Discworld" series, a formative reading experience in her childhood (which explains a great deal). Alan recommended the new Apple+ series on dysfunctional British spies, "Slow Horses." Scott endorsed Andy Weir's latest book "Project Hail Mary" for its amazing worldbuilding, if not necessarily its prose. And Shane gave his wholehearted endorsement to Jamie Kirchick's forthcoming new book "Secret City," which details the often hidden role gay people have played in D.C.-based policy and politics, including in national security. And listeners should definitely check out the newest podcast series from Lawfare and Goat Rodeo, Allies, which does a deep dive into how the decade-long failure of the Afghan Special Immigrant Visa (SIV) program led the United States to leave so many allies behind following its withdrawal from Afghanistan.
