Ever found yourself entranced by a rhythm, a melody, or a memory that transports you to another place and time? That's the magic Bruce Ascher, a die-hard Deadhead from Putnam County, brings to the table in our latest episode. With the backdrop of Led Zeppelin and Motown beats, Bruce's musical pilgrimage led him to the Grateful Dead's doorstep, and he's never looked back. We journey with him to his first Dead concert—a serendipitous celebration on Bob Weir's birthday—and through the enchanting live shows that solidified his lifelong devotion. Bruce's tales aren't just about the music; they're a testament to the vibrant community and shared experiences that defined being a Deadhead in the golden '70s and '80s.From the Fourth of July with Bob Dylan co-headlining the Grateful Dead—Bruce was there, and his anecdotes from that iconic 1987 show are just the tip of the iceberg. We navigate through the band's evolving eras, from Keith and Donna to the jazzy stylings of Brent Mydland, and into the hands of cover bands that keep the flame burning brightly. Bruce's narrative includes a nod to local New York legends like Grateful Bro, painting a picture of a scene that refuses to fade away, sustained by the undying passion of fans and musicians alike.Our conversation takes a literary turn as we explore the intersection between the Grateful Dead's cultural phenomenon and the written word, with a spotlight on TC Boyle's "Drop City." We unravel how Boyle's portrayal of freedom and counterculture resonates deeply with Deadheads. Wrapping up, we reflect on the ever-present musical connections that continue to unite and inspire, from spontaneous jams with Bob Weir to the present-day concert scenes that keep the Dead's timeless vibe pulsing through the air. Join us for an unmissable episode that's as much about the music as it is about the memories and the indelible marks they leave on our lives.This episode is sponsored by ShakedownTshirts.com with unique lot-style T-shirts and gifts for Grateful Dead, Phish, Zappa, Panic, and more.

In dieser Folge von “Edle Federn” spricht Juli Zeh mit Julia Franck über die verstorbene Autorin Diane Oliver und ihre Kurzgeschichtensammlung “Nachbarn: Storys”.Julia Franck selbst hat für ihre Kurzgeschichten und Bücher zahlreiche Auszeichnungen, Preise und Stipendien gewonnen. Unter anderem wurde ihr Roman "Die Mittagfrau" mit dem Deutschen Buchpreis ausgezeichnet. Sie selbst erklärte "Vielleserin" entdeckte durch die intensive Lektüre anderer Werke eine Sammlung von Kurzgeschichten der jung verstorbenen Autorin Diane Oliver mit dem Titel: “Nachbarn: Storys” Diane Oliver wuchs in den Südstaaten auf – und in ihren Kurzgeschichten verarbeitete sie ihre Alltagserfahrungen in den rassistischen USA der 60er Jahre. Juli Zeh sagt über NACHBARN: STORYS:Diane Oliver, die selbst in den Zeiten von Rassentrennung und Bürgerrechtsbewegung großgeworden ist, erschafft die Lebenssituation ihrer Charaktere so plastisch und hautnah, dass man beim Lesen immerhin die Chance bekommt, die aus heutiger Sicht vollkommen absurden Verhältnisse nachzufühlen. Dabei sind Olivers Texte nicht politisch in dem Sinne, dass sie anklagen, fordern oder belehren würden. Diane Oliver ist definitiv eine Vertreterin des “Showing Not Telling” - also jener Kunst, die es wagt, ein Geschehnis möglichst präzise darzustellen, um dann dem Leser die Freiheit zu geben, es selbst zu bewerten. Gerade durch dieses Verfahren treffen ihre Kurzgeschichten ins Mark. Das “Nachbarn: Storys” in hervorragender deutscher Übersetzung jetzt herausgegeben wurde, ist ein großes Geschenk. Dass es das einzige literarische Vermächtnis von Diane Oliver ist, ist ein herber Verlust. Was wäre, wenn diese Autorin nicht im Jahr 1966 gestorben wäre, sondern die US-amerikanische Geschichte bis heute begleitet hätte? Vielleicht wäre sie neben den vielen weißen Männern wie Philip Roth, John Updike, Thomas Pynchon, TC Boyle und Jonathan Franzen, die eine weibliche schwarze Erzählerin geworden, deren Werk auf vergleichbare Weise in die Weltliteratur eingegangen wäre.

Hannah is in the Berkshires (or someplace) digging for ramps and concerned about her to-be-read list, but she made some time to talk books, including "Rough Sleepers" (the next Book Club book), which leads to a big discussion of why people do good works. Sam thinks it's anger. Heavy cynicism ensues. As a palate-cleanser, we then engage in a discussion of note-taking — Hannah won't write in her hardcovers — and the use of notes at Book Club and the preciousness of books. (Note: Maine and Massachusetts are NOT the only states that celebrate Patriots Day). Oh, yeah, the books we read: "Blue Skies," by TC Boyle (who's great, but stay for the mediocre TC Boyle anecdote at the end); "Symphony of Secrets," by Brendan Slocumb (don't read the jacket copy!); "Saha," by Cho Nam-Joo (Singapore is not for Sam; it's unclear whether all of his facts are in order); "You Are Here," by Karin Lin-Greenberg ("shining beacons of capitalism"). And then there's 15 minutes worth of stuff about the Newburyport Literary Festival — for which Hannah is leading a panel on the "coming of age" novel, with Allegra Goodman, Kai Harris, and Jessica Anya Blau — and how we manage our advance-reader copies.

T. C. Boyle mit einem brennend aktuellen Thema: der Feind der Zivilisation Adam, der Sohn eines Schuldirektors und Vietnamveterans, kriegt nichts auf die Reihe. Er fliegt von allen Schulen, wandert von einem Psychiater zum anderen, bis die Eltern ihn aufgeben. Doch in Adam tickt eine Bombe. Überall wähnt er Feinde, gegen die es sich zu verteidigen gilt. In der Wildnis, wo er ein Schlafmohnfeld angelegt hat, hortet er Waffen. Aber es gibt jemanden, der sich in ihn verliebt. Sara, die auch gegen vieles steht: Globalisierung, Verschwörer und Staatsgewalt. Als sie ihn am Straßenrand aufgabelt, beginnt eine leidenschaftliche Liaison. Doch bald merkt Sara, dass mit Adam nicht gut zu reden ist – und er es ernst meint mit den Feinden, sehr ernst. (Laufzeit: 8h 21)

Die erste Folge unseres Podcasts hatte gleich einen großen Gast. T. C. Boyle war im Februar in Deutschland zu Besuch und kam auch zu uns in den Verlag. Mit seinem Lektor Piero Salabè hat T. C. Boyle über viele verschiedene Dinge gesprochen: Über schriftstellerische Vorbilder, Produktivität als Autor, Disziplin, die lokale Verortung der Romane, Boyles Liebe zur Natur, den Bergen und das Verhältnis zu Einsamkeit und dem Draußen, über Lesungen und Lesereisen genauso wie über Religion und Wissenschaft und auch die große Frage, warum T. C. Boyle vermutlich niemals eine Autobiographie schreiben wird, aber hoffentlich noch viele Romane. Viel Vergnügen!

Mirabelle Bevan swept into the office of McGuigan & McGuigan Debt Recovery at nine on the dot. She removed her jacket and popped the gold aviator sunglasses she'd been wearing into her handbag, which she closed with a decisive click. The musky scent of expensive perfume spiced the air -- the kind that only a sleek, middle-aged woman could hope to carry off. Bill Turpin arrived in her wake. Like Mirabelle, Bill was always punctual. He was a sandy-haired, reliable kind of fellow. At his heel was the black spaniel the office had acquired the year before. Panther nuzzled Mirabelle's knees, his tail wagging.  "Nasty business on Oxford Street," Bill commented, picking up a list of the day's calls from his in-tray and casting an eye down the addresses. "That new barber's." "Tea, Bill?" Mirabelle offered without looking up. "Nah. Always puts me off, does a murder..." -- England Expects, Sara Sheridan What a delight to chat with author Sara Sheridan! I can't possibly keep up with all of her accomplishments, but I'll do my best. Here are a few ways you might connect with her work: -- Like historical mysteries? Her Mirabelle Bevan series features a woman who has suffered tremendous loss -- as has her country. Together, she and England are coming out of the despair of the Second World War. Oh, and Mirabelle is solving murders along the way. -- Prefer contemporary fiction? From Hong Kong call girls to a mysterious inheritance, road trips and revenge, Sara writes it all. -- Historical epics? From China to Antarctica, Brazil, England, and the Arabian desert, Sara sweeps you across the world. -- Nonfiction your thing? She wrote the companion guide to the ITV series, Victoria, and is currently writing about Scottish women in history. As she herself has been inducted into the Saltire Society's community of Outstanding Women, I think that's highly appropriate.  -- Let's not forget blog posts. Here is one of my favorite of hers, on the anniversary of UK women getting the right to vote. It's on the site of Sara's own Reek Perfume, a company she runs with her daughter, so if you have a weakness for fabulous scent, well, you can thank me later.  Sara is so busy writing, she mentions that she needs to deliberately carve out specific times to read. Go-to favorites are Scottish novelist and screenwriter, Lorna Moon, TC Boyle, Jeremy Levin, Susan Ferrier, and of course Agatha Christie. We also talk about the Windrush generation and the problems they're currently facing; anyone interested in learning more can check out this BBC overview.  Sara and I chat about her most recent novel, The Ice Maiden, and if you're in the UK, you're in luck! Today is the launch date! Yay! Go read. Alas, American listeners will have to be a little more patient; we don't get The Ice Maiden until November, 2018, but you can preorder here.  As always, if you'd prefer to read our chat rather than listen, the transcript is below. Enjoy! -- Laura     ********************************************************************** Laura Brennan: Author Sara Sheridan brings history to life in novels such as On Starlit Seas and her upcoming historical epic set in Antarctica, The Ice Maiden, which will be out in the US this July. It’s a romance and an adventure -- but where there’s life there’s also murder… Her Mirabelle Bevan mysteries, set in post-WWII Brighton, feature a woman whose skills were honed during the war and who finds herself at loose ends now that there's peace. Lucky for us, evil lurks everywhere -- even in Brighton. Sara, thank you for joining me. Sara Sheridan: It's nice to chat to you. LB: So you write the wonderful Mirabelle Bevan historical mystery series, which we're going to talk about, but you also write prolifically in other genres. SS: Yes, I do. I find it really stimulating, actually, to write in other genres. I know some writers find it really confusing, but for me,

Skylight Books Author Reading Series

When the Killing's Done (Penguin)  Acclaimed novelist T.C. Boyle (The Women) returns to Skylight to read and sign this new paperback edition of his latest novel, When the Killing's Done, a fictional take on real-life battle between the National Park Service and animal welfare activists over invasive species in the Channel Islands. With vividly drawn characters and heart-pounding plot twists, Boyle asks an important question: When it comes to restoring delicate ecosystems, are the lives of some animals worth more than those of others? "He writes lyrically, beautifully — about the ocean, the land, about California history and its pitfalls and perils.... Boyle makes us laugh and wonder at his dazzling gifts but his comedy is a dark business." --Los Angeles Times "Terrifically exciting and unapologetically relevant." --The Washington Post "Character, science and history co-evolve marvelously here in a tale of fanaticism gone literally overboard." --Barbara Kingsolver, The New York Times T.C. Boyle is the author of twelve novels including most recently, The Women, a New York Times bestseller, and nine collections of short stories, including Wild Child. A member of the American Academy of Arts and Letters, he lives near Santa Barbara, CA and is Distinguished Professor of English at the University of Southern California.
