Feedback Weapons of Math Destruction: How Big Data Increases Inequality and Threatens Democracy by Cathy O’Neil (rec’d by Jeff) Last Night at the Lobster by Stewart O’Nan (rec’d by Linda) Unmentionable: The Victorian Lady’s Guide to Sex, Marriage and Manners by Therese O’Neill and The Mother Tongue: English and How it Got That Way by Bill Bryson (rec’d by Angie) Questions 1. Years ago I read the translation of the swedish book The Unit by Ninni Holmqvist. It’s one of those underrated books that deserves more love. It’s a scifi novel featuring an older woman who moves into a senior home that is more than what it seems. Residents get the life of luxury and all their needs and dreams met, but they are required to go through weekly blood and drug tests and many participate in questionable experiments. It’s a book about trust, good and evil, the elderly, and how far things might go in the future. I would love to find more books featuring elderly folk, especially genre books (scifi, horror, thriller, suspense). I’ve read Fredrich Bachman, The Lido, The Curious Charms of Arthur Pepper – in other words (spoilers) charming, quaint books with happy, hopeful endings. Can you recommend any books with a twist or uncertainty or a hint of something unexpected? Thanks! -Katherine 2. Hello Amanda and Jenn, big fan! Thank you for keeping me entertained through lockdown. My brother and I both love reading and keep trying to recommend books for each other but we have very different tastes. Books we have read this year that we thought might fit the bill for us both are: Crime and Punishment by Fyodor Dostoyevsky (he loved and I struggled through). We both enjoyed The Examined Life: How we lose and find ourselves by Stephen Grosz and Man’s Search for Meaning by Viktor E Frankl He prefers books that challenge him, that are eye opening/life changing and he’ll enjoy it if it’s really long. He likes non-fiction memoirs about war and classics that have stood the test of time. I adore what he likes to call ‘pop’ fiction; Crime, Thriller, Horror, anything recently published, fast paced and relatively short. Can you suggest something that might work for us both? Thank you! -Jenny 3. TIME _SENSITIVE: Hello, I am going to Northern Maine with my husband for a makeshift honeymoon since ours was canceled from covid in June and I am looking for recommendations for books to read on the ride up from Philadelphia. I am open to anything except horror, sci-fi and mystery but something with National Park/nature feels would be nice. I would also request a Red Socks book for me (I know next to nothing on baseball but since we will be going to a game on the way to Maine and I would like to know something about the stadium or the team before going). Thank you so much and I can’t wait to hear what you can suggest. -Carissa 4. I am looking for a book (nonfiction or fiction does not matter) that talks about relationships between semi-distant dads and daughters. My dad left my mom for another woman (now my step mom) when I was 6, so honestly I was too young for it to be terribly traumatic. Now that I am grown up (I’m 27) we barely speak. My step brother came out as trans a few years ago and both my dad and step mom have responded terribly to it, which was the thing that made me really give up on having a relationship with my dad. I am queer and my fiance is nonbinary, and when I have introduced my previous partners to him he just dismissed their pronouns and “didn’t get it.” He does not even know I’m engaged and I have not spoken to him in 2 years now. He recently reached out to me and wants to reconnect, but honestly I am at a point where I only want to put emotional energy into relationships that are fulfilling. So, I am looking for something with an estranged relationship between father and daughter, has queer themes/queer mc, and there does not have to be a redemption arc or anything. In fact, I would like something where the daughter gets closure with deciding to not maintain a relationship with her father. Maybe 1 nonfiction and 1 fiction? Thank you! -Kenna (she/her) 5. I realized recently that I kind of have Harry Potter as my ultimate favorite thing in my head as a default because like for others it was the first series I read that really drew me in and made me love the characters, etc, and I haven’t felt like I’ve ever found that with another series. I don’t exactly want a Harry Potter readalike because I know there are lots of those. I really want a book, preferably a series, preferably not fantasy, that has those same elements that make HP so lovable. A small cast of really well-developed characters, a really immersive and well-thought-out story, universal themes, found family, all that. I just want an adult version of it that will draw me in that way. Hopefully this isn’t some impossible ask. Thanks and love the show! -Maria 6. I’m looking for books with the same feel as Ted Lasso. I don’t necessarily care if it is an American abroad story. I’m more interested in optimism, vulnerability, and humor. I don’t think I’m looking for “cozy” or “feel good” reads. If I had to describe it, I would say I want the heart and vulnerability of Ted Lasso. Thanks! -Casey 7. A year into the pandemic and I am having a deep craving for books that help with my wanderlust. I’m looking for narrative non-fiction or travelogues to help transport me, but also integrate deeper understanding of a place’s history and culture. Here’s some that I recently read that I’m still having a book hangover from: 1. Leave Only Footprints: My Acadia-to-Zion Journey 2. Eat the Buddha:Life and Death in a Tibetan Town 3. Buttermilk Graffiti: A Chef’s Journey to Discover Americas New Melting-Pot Cuisine 4. Barbarian Days: A Surfing Life Here’s my good reads, thanks in advance!!!! -Mia Books Discussed Sisters of the Vast Black by Lina Rather Turn of Mind by Alice LaPlante Piranesi by Susanna Clarke Homegoing by Yaa Gyasi (cw: racial violence) Feeding the Monster by Seth Mnookin The Book Woman of Troublesome Creek by Kim Michele Richardson Follow Your Arrow by Jessica Verdi (rec’d by Danika) Man Alive by Thomas Page McBee A Prince on Paper by Alyssa Cole Chilling Effect by Valerie Valdes Long Way to a Small Angry Planet by Becky Chambers (Wayfarers #1) Dead in the Garden by Dalia Donovan Check, Please!: #Hockey by Ngozi Ukazu (with thanks to Smexy Books) Window Seat by Aminatta Forna (comes out May 18) The Outrun by Amy Liptrot (tw: mental illness, suicidal ideation, sexual assault) See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

For our last show of the year, we’re going into therapy - or, more accurately, we’ll be talking about therapy’s intersection with literature. Does analysis make good fiction? Do therapists make good characters, or good authors? What has the language of psychology given to literature? We’re very happy that the inspiration for today’s topic is our guest, Ben Lerner, whose third novel The Topeka School is a brilliant meditation on family, psychology, toxic masculinity, whiteness and American life, told through the lens of one man’s coming of age in Topeka, Kansas in the 90s, where Ben himself was born. So, lay down on the couch and do the work with us for the next hour on Literary Friction, and we'll catch up with you in the new decade. Happy holidays, everyone!

This week we take a look at non-fiction books in the RNIB Talking Books library including Stuff Matters: Exploring the Marvelous Materials That Shape Our Man-Made World by Mark Miodownik and The Shark and the Albatross by John Aitchison. #RNIBConnect #ReadOnAir
Stephen Grosz waited until he was 60 to publish his first book, 'The Examined Life'. It was a huge overnight success - a bestseller here in Britain and translated into more than 20 languages across the world. It's a distillation of the lifetime he has spent as a psychoanalyst, tens of thousands of hours listening to people in hospitals, forensic clinics and in private practice. It reads like a collection of short stories, full of vignettes of memorable characters: the man who faked his own death, the pathological liar, the lovesick middle-aged woman who meets a man at a party - and turns up at his house the next week with a removals van to move in with him. In Private Passions, in conversation with Michael Berkeley, Stephen Grosz tells his own story: his childhood in Chicago, the son of immigrants who ran a grocery store; student days in radical Berkeley; and now, settled in Britain, how he's facing the challenges of fatherhood and ageing. Music has played an important part right from the beginning, and Grosz admits that his choice of music is very psychologically revealing. His musical choices include Scarlatti, Aaron Copland, Brahms's 3rd Symphony, gospel singer Bessie Jones, Schubert's Piano Sonata no 20, Bob Dylan - and a hilarious Alberta Hunter song about sex, My Handy Man Ain't Handy No More. Produced by Elizabeth Burke. A Loftus production for BBC Radio 3. First broadcast 03/08/2014 To hear previous episodes of Private Passions, please visit http://www.bbc.co.uk/podcasts/series/r3pp/all.

He lives in London.

Sam and Simon talk about talent and how to find it, along with partridge hunting and some other stuff. Things mentioned in this episode: We spent a whole lot of time talking about the The Hybrid Traits Model. BOOKS Talent is Overrated by Geoff Colvin The Examined Life - Stephen Grosz The Happiness Hypothesis by Jonathan Haidt Nurtureshock by Po Bronson and Ashley Merryman The 7 Day Weekend and Maverick by Ricardo Semler MOVIES Fight Club.

Deborah Cohen charts family secrets and shame from the Victorian times to the present day, while Sarah Dunant and TV producer Alex Graham discuss how confession became entertainment, and the psychoanalyst Stephen Grosz listens to the hidden feelings of his patients. Producer: Katy Hickman.
