With her bewitching and beautiful novel NEVERMORE (Seagull Books, translated from French by Tess Lewis, who joins our conversation), Cécile Wajsbrot takes us on a tour of Chenobyl's Forbidden Zone, the High Line in NYC, Dresden, Paris, under the shadow of the Time Passes section of Virginia Woolf's To The Lighthouse. We talk about the challenges of writing a first-person novel about translation, the strange ways Woolf has followed Cecile throughout her careers as author & translator, and how it felt to see her novel about translating Virginia Woolf into French get translated into English. We get into her literary career, how Time Passes became a stand-in for her fascination with destruction, why she's translated Woolf's The Waves three times over thirty years (and whether the first one got her into the bad graces of the editor of Le Monde de Livres), what it was like to subvert the translator's typical role of invisibility with this novel, and the language she wishes she had. We also discuss mourning and the ways we try to keep conversation alive with those we've lost, the time I impressed the Princess of Yugoslavia by transliterating the Cyrillic on her family's jewels, and more.

Who benefits and who loses when emotions are described in particular ways? How do metaphors such as "hold on" and "let go" affect people's emotional experiences? Banned Emotions: How Metaphors Can Shape What People Feel (Oxford UP, 2019), written by neuroscientist-turned-literary scholar Laura Otis, draws on the latest research in neuroscience and psychology to challenge popular attempts to suppress certain emotions. This interdisciplinary book breaks taboos by exploring emotions in which people are said to "indulge" self-pity, prolonged crying, chronic anger, grudge-bearing, bitterness, and spite. By focusing on metaphors for these emotions in classic novels, self-help books, and popular films, Banned Emotions exposes their cultural and religious roots. Examining works by Dante, Dickens, Dostoevsky, Kafka, Forster, and Woolf in parallel with Bridesmaids, Fatal Attraction, and Who Moved My Cheese?, Banned Emotions traces pervasive patterns in the ways emotions are represented that can make people so ashamed of their feelings, they may stifle emotions they need to work through. The book argues that emotion regulation is a political as well as a biological issue, affecting not only which emotions can be expressed, but who can express them, when, and how.

O programa Autores e Livros desta semana traz uma conversa especial com o escritor Alexandre Staut, autor de O Caldeirão da Velha Chica e outras histórias brasileiras. A obra é uma coletânea de contos que mergulha no imaginário popular do Brasil e apresenta uma pesquisa apaixonada sobre a alimentação brasileira, fruto de mais de 15 anos de investigação informal. Combinando jornalismo literário, relatos de viagem, história oral, antropologia e toques de ficção, Staut utiliza uma linguagem acessível e poética para valorizar tradições, lendas e saberes populares. Seus textos resgatam personagens e histórias do Brasil profundo, especialmente das regiões interioranas e rurais, conectando cultura, memória e identidade. Entre os lançamentos literários comentados no programa, destaque para o livro Teatro Lambe-lambe: uma parição brasileira, assinado por Amara Hurtado, Denise Di Santos, Jirlene Pascoal, Mariana Baeta e Sérgio Maggio. A obra faz um mergulho na história e nas linguagens do Teatro Lambe-lambe, técnica de teatro de bonecos em miniatura. O projeto nasceu da inquietação do grupo As Caixeiras Cia. de Bonecas, do Distrito Federal, pioneiro no movimento da arte lambe-lambeira no Centro-Oeste. Outro destaque do episódio é a nova edição do ensaio Profissões para mulheres, de Virginia Woolf, lançado pela Editora Maralto. Com tradução da escritora Adriana Lisboa e ilustrações inéditas da artista Marilda Castanha, a obra dá nova vida ao clássico texto, publicado originalmente em 1931 como uma palestra. A edição especial combina texto e imagem para reforçar a atualidade da reflexão de Woolf sobre os desafios enfrentados pelas mulheres no mundo profissional e intelectual.

Virginia Woolfs endagsroman Mrs Dalloway är en verklig klassiker. Men vad är det som gör den så bra? Karin Nykvist funderar över sin favorit. Lyssna på alla avsnitt i Sveriges Radio Play. ESSÄ: Detta är en text där skribenten reflekterar över ett ämne eller ett verk. Åsikter som uttrycks är skribentens egna.Vad är det med Mrs Dalloway? Hur kommer det sig att jag bara måste återvända till henne gång på gång, år efter år, att jag tvingar alla mina studenter att läsa om henne och aldrig kan hålla litteraturvetarens förväntade distans utan bara måste förklara för alla som vill eller inte kan undgå att lyssna att hon finns i min absoluta favoritroman?Boken om henne handlar ju inte alls om något häpnadsväckande: en dam promenerar runt i London och ordnar en fest, samtidigt som en krigsveteran, skadad av första världskrigets skyttegravshelvete långsamt rör sig mot sitt självmord i samma stad. Och Mrs Dalloway är inte alls som jag – hoppas jag! Hon är snobbig, konservativ, dömande, arrogant – och inte helt lätt att tycka om. Trots att andra möjligheter fanns har hon valt det säkra livet och gift sig med en lagom ointressant man som gett henne en trygg position i samhällets societet. Själv broderar hon, handlar blommor, arrangerar fester och är – som hennes gamla kärlek Peter syrligt säger – en perfekt värdinna. Ytlig och lätt att glömma, med andra ord.Så varför gör jag inte det?Ja, grejen med Clarissa Dalloway är väl just att hon påminner mig om att den sorts människor som jag just beskrev faktiskt inte existerar: de ytliga, ointressanta, de som inte lämnar några spår. Vi bara tror att de finns. Virginia Woolfs mästerskap ligger i hur hon skriver fram den mänskliga erfarenheten, i all dess komplexitet. I Clarissa Dalloway får jag tillgång till en hel människa – på ett sätt som jag faktiskt inte kan få i verkliga livet. För porträttet av Clarissa tecknas inte bara genom hennes eget medvetande utan genom alla dem hon möter, de som känner henne väl och ser henne genom alla hennes tidigare, yngre versioner, och de som flyktigt korsar hennes väg på gatan.Virginia Woolf struntade blankt i sin samtids förväntningar på hur en roman skulle skrivas. I stället gjorde hon som Clarissa själv: kastade sig ut i den vackra Londonmorgonen och lät läsaren följa med i livet som ständigt pågår – överallt. Så byter romanen perspektiv utan förvarningar, från den promenerande Mrs Dalloway till hennes gamla pojkvän Peter Walsh – som just kommit tillbaka till London från att ganska mediokert ha tjänat det brittiska imperiet i Indien – till ungdomskärleken Sally Seton som blivit Lady och fembarnsmor, till butiksinnehavare, gatuförsäljare och nyfikna flanörer. Och så ger den perspektivet till den svårt sjuke Septimus Smith och hans förtvivlade fru Lucrezia, för att låta det gå tillbaka till Clarissa – och vidare igen. Hon tänker på dem alla och på sig själv – medan de i sin tur betraktar henne – och tänker på sig själva.Allt är relativt: tid, plats, minne, identitet – och människans sinnen och psykologi gör en objektiv upplevelse av världen omöjlig. ”Hon ville inte längre säga om någon människa i världen att hon eller han var det eller det [.…] ville inte säga om sig själv: jagär det eller det” tänker Clarissa. För dum är hon inte, hon vet: allt är i flux. Det enda vi verkligen har är ögonblicket, vårt här och nu. Berättelserna, före och efter-tankarna, den skenbara logiken skapar vi själva. Men det är ögonblicken vi minns, synintrycken, dofterna, ljuden, mötet med den andre.Ögonblick. Ordet återkommer genom romanen – i Eva Åsefeldts översättning hela femtiofyra gånger. För Woolf är det nämligen inte ett ord bland andra, inte en neutral beskrivning av en flyktig stund, utan centralt för hela hennes förståelse av livet. Hon kallar dem ”moments of being” – de ögonblick när livet plötsligt fylls av akut härvaro. De kommer sällan och oväntat. För Clarissa sker det till exempel när hon mitt på förmiddagen lägger av sig sin brosch i sitt sovrum. Woolf skriver att Clarissa: ”kastade sig […] ut i ögonblickets själva kärna, naglade fast det, där – ögonblicket denna förmiddag i juni som vilade under trycket av alla de andra förmiddagarna. Hon såg spegeln, toalettbordet och flaskorna som för första gången, samlade hela sitt jag till en enda punkt (med blicken mot spegeln), såg det späda rosa ansiktet hos den kvinna som samma kväll skulle hålla sin fest; Clarissa Dalloway, hon själv.”Ögonblick som dessa kan, som Runeberg skrev, ”bli hos oss evigt”. Som en annan morgon, mer än trettio år tidigare, när Sally plötsligt kysste henne på en terrass: ”det mest fulländade ögonblicket i hennes liv”.Clarissa återkommer ständigt till denna stund och till den hon var då. Då när alla dörrar till livet fortfarande stod öppna. Då, när hon gjorde slut med Peter Walsh – och kysste Sally. Sedan dess har livets dörrar stängts, en efter en. Har hon valt rätt? Var det rätt att tacka nej till allt det osäkra och otippade - och i stället bli fru Dalloway?Virginia Woolf hade hunnit bli fyrtio när hon skapade sin Clarissa. Hon bodde då tillfälligt i Richmond, där hon och hennes man Leonard hade startat Hogarth Press, mycket för att Virginia skulle ha något att göra – hon led sedan barndomen av bräcklig mental hälsa.Många läsare har funderat på hur mycket av författaren som finns i Mrs Dalloway. Det är lite roligt, för Woolf var knappast någon borgerlig societetsdam som gav fester för konservativa premiärministrar och andra noggrant utvalda medlemmar av societeten. Hon var ju bohem, ganska så fattig, gift med en socialist och uppslukad av konst och litteratur. Mrs Dalloway broderar – Virginia Woolf läste James Joyce. Mrs Dalloway planerar menyer – Virginia Woolf satte texten till T.S. Eliots ”Det öde landet” – som gavs ut som bok på paret Woolfs lilla förlag 1923, samtidigt som Virginia skrev på sin roman.Men jag förstår tanken - för visst finns likheterna där. Clarissa ser och noterar det mesta som har med samtidens sociala spel att göra. Men till skillnad från sin skapare Virginia väljer hon bara att spela med. Kanske är Clarissa Dalloway allt det som Woolf själv hade kunnat bli, om hon inte gjort uppror mot det viktorianska samhälle hennes samtid och stränga far uppfostrade henne till.Och det är väl just i det att vara människa i världen, bland andra människor, som jag och Clarissa – och för den delen Virginia Woolf – möts och är lika varandra. Upptagna med vardagens små planer, fasta i oss själva och våra sinnens och tankars begränsningar medan livet pågår och pågår – och plötsligt slår oss med sin storslagenhet, skönhet och korthet – i varats utsträckta ögonblick.Och alla har vi väl våra egna varianter av Sally Seton-kyssar där någonstans längst inne: minnen som vi vårdar och som kommer att försvinna med oss.En av litteraturens främsta egenskaper är att den får oss att känna igen människor vi aldrig mött. Jag känner igen Clarissa Dalloway – trots att hon är hundra år äldre än jag och bara ett stycke text, en uppfinning. För någonstans är det ju ändå så, att Clarissa Dalloway, ja, det är ju jag.Och du.Karin Nykvistlitteraturvetare och kritikerLitteraturVirginia Woolf: Mrs Dalloway. Översättning: Eva Åsefeldt.

1920-talets författare sörjde inte bara alla döda, utan främst att mänskligheten gått förlorad. Anna Thulin funderar över hur det påverkade romankonsten. Lyssna på alla avsnitt i Sveriges Radio Play. ESSÄ: Detta är en text där skribenten reflekterar över ett ämne eller ett verk. Åsikter som uttrycks är skribentens egna. Först publicerad 2020-10-01. Texten är inläst av Sofia Strandberg.Hur mäter man förlusten av ett krig? I kroppar: tio miljoner döda, dubbelt så många sårade och skadade. I platser: ödelagda städer, brända landskap och skyttegravar som djupa, blödande sår. Men platser och kroppar rymmer inte allt. Kanske är det tomheten vi istället bör mäta: det outtalade, minnena som trycks undan och förtvinar, den ekande tystnaden efter de ofödda som aldrig blir till.Ja, första världskriget var ett oöverskådligt trauma för stora delar av världen, och så klart för Europa. Vi kan försöka föra räkenskap över synliga och osynliga förluster, men all sorg kommer ändå inte att rymmas. Ur askan reste sig dock något nytt, inte minst inom den europeiska romankonsten. På 1920-talet skrevs några av århundradets främsta böcker – romaner som Thomas Manns ”Bergtagen”, André Gides ”Falskmyntarna”, Virginia Woolfs ”Mrs Dalloway” och Herman Hesses ”Stäppvargen”. Skildringar av väldigt olika slag, men som har gemensamt att de försökte bearbeta krigets trauma och skildra författarens idéer om samhället och människan. Och trots att de är skrivna i 1900-talets början, har dåtidens romaner mer gemensamt med senare författare än vad man först kan tro.Thomas Mann har kallat människan för ”livets sorgebarn”. I så fall är 1920-talets romaner krigets sorgebarn, skriver journalisten och författaren Åke Lundqvist i sin bok med samma namn. Där skildrar han tiden före och under och efter första världskriget, och djupläser sju romaner från efterkrigstiden – romaner som alla söker ett ljus i mörkret. För hur kunde européerna, som stolt tänkt att de burit på humanitetens och förnuftets fana, falla ut i en sådan katastrof? Det måste vara idéerna det var fel på! Inte främst de politiska idéerna, tänkte författarna, utan de mänskliga grundvalarna.Ja, vad innebär det egentligen att vara människa? Känslan på 1920-talet var att allting stod i sönderfall. Nationer, ekonomi och gamla religiösa och vetenskapliga sanningar. Ingenting gick att lita på. Det gav en längtan tillbaka, efter något ursprungligt och meningsfullt. Man sökte sig till andra länder, till vetenskapen, till svunna civilisationer och inåt sig själv. Mann, Gide, Woolf och Hesse deltog inte i några strider och skrev inte uttryckligen om kriget. Men känslan av förlust var ett arv från kriget. Den vilade som en skugga över de överlevande.På samma sätt fortsätter skuggor att vila över oss. Det ger avtryck i litteraturen.Några böcker om första världskriget kom visserligen tidigt, under själva krigsåren, men det var först med Erich Maria Remarques roman ”På västfronten intet nytt”, från 1929, som genombrottet kom för krigslitteraturen. På samma sätt dröjde det innan andra världskrigets vittneslitteratur om Förintelsen nådde fram till läsarnas medvetande. Kanske tog det tid för publiken att mogna. Kanske för författarna att våga skriva, trygga från hot om våld och plötsliga försvinnanden.1920-talets europeiska författare upplevde inte samma hot, men riskerade att utsättas för censur för att de bröt mot konventioner. De sörjde inte i första hand de miljontals liv som gått till spillo under första världskriget – utan att mänskligheten som helhet gått förlorad. Åke Lundqvist uttrycker det fint i sin bok: ”Samhälleliga andliga värden har dödligt skadats i kriget. Men det ljus som brinner i människan är intakt. Dess förmåga att påverka världens gång må vara oviss. Dock finns den där, som en motkraft. Detta är kärnan i den andliga tro som tjugotalets europeiska idéromaner förmedlar.”Det andliga inuti oss själva. Människan istället för gud. Ja, vi lever fortfarande – eller på nytt – i ett famlande efter andliga värden. Den nya världen har visats sig vara mer globaliserad och sammanknuten än någonsin tidigare, och samtidigt mer fragmenterad och upplöst för individen. Inte underligt att man kan känna sig som Clarissa i Virginia Woolfs ”Mrs Dalloway”, där hon går genom staden, totalt uppslukad och förundrad över alla intryck som möter henne – för att i nästa sekund falla ned i modlöst mörker. Livslusten och meningslösheten lever tätt sida vid sida. För att hitta en plats i samtiden dyker man in i sig själv och lägger ihop skärvor av minnen så att man förstår något om världen.Att dyka ned i sig själv och pussla ihop minnen för att förstå sin samtid…. Visst låter det som en annan litterär genre? Jag tänker såklart på autofiktionen, och undrar om inte vågen av självframställningar har en del gemensamt med förra sekelskiftets litteratur. 1920-talets författare upplevde att de förlorat den gamla sanningen om världen, ja, hela den gamla världen dog i första världskriget. Själva försöker vi navigera mellan falska nyheter, företagens storytelling och sociala mediers polerade yta. Vad är autentiskt när sanningen blivit fiktion? Och vad ska egentligen en roman vara, när allt vi omgärdas av är berättelser?Det är svårt att peka ut vad som är nytt, särskilt som man är mitt uppe i ett skeende, säger den norska litteraturprofessorn Toril Moi i en föreläsning om Karl Ove Knausgård på Lunds Universitet 2019. Men hon pekar på förlusten av sanningen som en avgörande drivkraft för autofiktionens pionjärer, från Annie Ernaux till Knausgård: ”Liksom alla stora konstnärliga rörelser tar också den här upp något oroande i vår kultur, nämligen den ökande produktionen av fiktioner, som nu hotar att drunkna oss i det falska, det oäkta och det overkliga.” Genom att skala av lagren av fiktion vill författarna blottlägga sanningen. Inte den torrt objektiva sanningen, utan den mänskliga och meningsskapande. Inte helt olikt vad 1920-talets författare strävade efter.Det sägs att krigets första offer är sanningen. Men exakt hur mäter man förlusten av ett krig? Den går inte att mäta, är det enkla svaret. Varken i kroppar eller platser eller tomhet. Många av oss som själva förskonats hör ekot av släktingar som överlevde eller som inte gjorde det. Soldater som återvände; eller inte gjorde det. Återigen sover många av oss med någon som vaknar upp i ett skrik mitt i natten när minnena tränger sig på. Att dö är inte svårt, nej, att leva är det svåra. Kanske, i bästa fall, kan litteraturen visa oss en väg.Text: Anna Thulin, journalistTal: Sofia StrandbergLäsning och lyssningÅke Lundqvist: ”Krigets sorgebarn: Om 1920-talets europeiska idéromaner”, Carlssons bokförlag, 2018.”Knausgård: In Search of a New Form” av Toril Moi, föreläsning på Lunds universitet 2019.

Da Hans Petter Blad ble innlagt på Ullevål for en operasjon sommeren for ett år siden, valgte han å ta med seg en roman av Virginia Woolf (1882-1941) som lesestoff og eneste reisefølge. Det viste seg å være et klokt valg, for Til fyret (1927) var den perfekte lektyren for å vinne tilbake «troen på livet.»På tross av at teksten på mangae måter er en ekstremt voldelig tekst, og helt annerledes enn man forestiller seg ved synet av fotografier av Virgina Woolf og hennes krets, alle tandre og snobbete. Woolf er selve sinnbildet på både modernismen og feminismen i litteraturen. Hennes grensesprengende essay, Et eget rom (1929), er et av de viktigste og mest velskrevne litterære essay noen gang. Det kom to år etter Til fyret og fire år etter hennes kanskje mest kjente romen, Mrs. Dalloway (1925). Men hva betyr forfatterskapet hennes i dag? Hvordan har det seg at spesielt Til fyret oppleves som både livsnødvendig og urovekkende nær? Ved siden av å trekke veksler på sammenhengen mellom levde liv, romankunsten og tanker om det å skrive, står den umiddelbare opplevelsen av Woolfs bøker i sentrum for dette foredraget. Og, i det kollektive rommet biblioteket utgjør, vil naturligvis også Virginia Woolfs «krets», Bloomsbury-kretsen, ses på som interessant, som bilde på hvordan politikk, historie og geografi, og andre kunstformer som malerkunsten er så viktige for en romans mangetydige form.

Who are the most symbolic mid 20th century American Jews? In Eminent Jews, New Yorker staff writer David Denby tells the remarkable stories of Leonard Bernstein, Mel Brooks, Betty Friedan, and Norman Mailer. He explains how each embodied a new Jewish confidence after WWII, contrasting with earlier generations' restraint. Each figure pushed boundaries in their own way - Bernstein through his musical versatility, Brooks through his boundary-pushing humor about Jewish experiences, Friedan through her feminist theories, and Mailer through his provocative writing style. Five key takeaways * Post-WWII Jewish Americans displayed a newfound confidence and willingness to stand out publicly, unlike previous generations who were more cautious about drawing attention to their Jewishness.* The four figures in Denby's book (Bernstein, Brooks, Friedan, and Mailer) each embraced their Jewish identity differently, while becoming prominent in American culture in their respective fields.* Mel Brooks used humor, particularly about Jewish experiences and historical trauma, as both a defense mechanism and a way to assert Jewish presence and resilience.* Each figure pushed against the restraint of previous Jewish generations - Bernstein through his expressive conducting and openness about his complex sexuality, Friedan through her feminist activism, and Mailer through his aggressive literary style.* Rejecting the notion that a Jewish "golden age" has ended, Denby believes that despite current challenges including campus anti-Semitism, American Jews continue to thrive and excel disproportionately to their population size.David Denby is a staff writer at The New Yorker.

This week, a sampling of Ozark original stringbands recorded live at the Ozark Folk Center State Park's 2024 Stringband festival held annually in Mountain View, Arkansas. Each Fall, the Ozark Folk Center State Park holds its annual Stringband Festival featuring internationally touring musicians as well as local stringbands. In 2024, the headliners were The Lonesome Ace Stringband from Toronto and Dirk & Amelia Powell from Louisiana. Both these internationally touring acts were featured recently on Ozark Highlands Radio. In this episode, we'll spotlight the authentic local Ozark stringbands that round out our festival. Featured are Lillyanne McCool & Ozark Legacy, The Creek Rocks, Bug Shuffle, The Riggsville Ramblers, and Salem Plateau. Lillyanne McCool & Ozark Legacy is a five piece string band that straddles the line between oldtime and bluegrass musics. Led by award winning banjo virtuoso Lillyanne McCool, Ozark legacy is based in Mountain View, Arkansas. Joined by her brother Jared on mandolin and her mother Crystal on upright bass, Lillyanne has grown up on the Ozark Folk Center stage. Esther Exley joins in on fiddle and Emalee Flatness-Combs brings the guitar. The Creek Rocks from Springfield, Missouri are Cindy Woolf and Mark Bilyeu. Cindy Woolf was raised in Batesville, Arkansas along the southern foothills of the Ozarks Mountain region. Mark Bilyeu hails from Springfield, located atop the Ozarks Plateau. They began their musical collaboration in 2003 with Mark at the helm for Woolf's debut CD “Simple and Few.” They married in 2013 and have endeavored together on a mission to breath new life into traditional Ozark folk songs, a mission that's carried them all the way to the Smithsonian Folklife Festival! Bug Shuffle is a traditional oldtime stringband trio based in Mountain View, Arkansas. The band consists of husband and wife Scott & Shay Pool and our very own Dave Smith, the host of Ozark Highlands Radio. Shay Pool is an oldtime fiddle contest champion and educator in the Ozark Folk Center's Music Roots program. Scott is a renowned guitar accompanist and talented luthier. Together, they own and operate Mountain View Music, an old fashioned retail music store and local landmark. The Riggsville Ramblers are another Mountain View fixture. This four piece Ozark original stringband can be heard regularly in the craft grounds at the Ozark Folk Center State Park. The Ramblers are husband and wife Jenny & Tom Sartain on banjo and guitar, Joe Roe on fiddle, and Carl Adkins on resonator guitar. With a sound plucked right out of the 19th century, the Riggsville Ramblers will have your toes tapping and your hands clapping. Salem Plateau is an oldtime husband and wife duo made up of five time Arkansas CMA winner Grace Stormont-McCarthy and multi-instrumentalist Joseph McCarthy. With a penchant and a voice for ancient ballads, Grace grew up on the Ozark Folk Center stage singing and playing everything from upright bass to guitar and banjo to fiddle. Not only a talented multi-instrumentalist, Joseph McCarthy is a human encyclopedia of knowledge when it comes to traditional Ozark music. In this week's “From the Vault” segment, OHR producer Jeff Glover offers an archival recording of Ozark original stringband Squirrel Heads in Gravy performing a medley of “My Own House Waltz and Come on with Dinah,” from the Ozark Folk Center State Park archives. In this week's guest host segment, renowned traditional folk musician, writer, and step dancer Aubrey Atwater discusses the folk song Lazy John.

Marina Bassani"Amava il Chelsea Hotel"L'hallelujah di Leonard CohenMonologo di Marina BassaniCineteatro BarettiVia Baretti, 4 - Torino12, 13, 14   febbraio  2025 ore 20.45Marina Bassani celebra Leonard Cohen, recitando in musica la  vita di questo celebre poeta e cantautore, partendo dall'isola di Wight in cui muove i primi passi come cantante, spostandosi poi all'infanzia trascorsa a Montreal, con il nonno Klein e le letture della Bibbia,  passando attraverso l'amore per la compagna Marianne sull'isola di Ydra,  la guerra di Cuba, il rapporto con la guerra e il legame con il padre e ancora New York, il suo successo, il grande lancio con la Columbia records, il sesso,  Jane Joplin, Nico, poi la depressione, e alla fine  il monte Baldy, quando diventa monaco per 5 anni. Siamo negli anni sessanta, e poi settanta, sono gli anni dei figli dei fiori, del rock e degli spinelli,  ma Leonard  Cohen ha qualcosa di diverso, non è rock , non è psichedelico, è notturno, è metafisico, lascia vedere il suo cuore, non nasconde le sue ferite. Cerca l'assoluto, vuole vedere l'invisibile.Sullo sfondo, la guerra del Vietnam, la rivoluzione di Cuba. Leonard   va a Cuba,  poi va nel deserto, vuole vedere da vicino  la guerra, che gli ha portato via suo padre, a  soli nove anni.“Sono tuo fratello, scrive in una canzone, Famous blue raincoat, sono il tuo assassino,  sei mio fratello, sei il mio assassino.“La guerra gli ispira la sua canzone più importante, Hallelujah.  lui la spiega così: “Questo mondo è pieno di conflitti e pieno di cose che non possono essere unite , ma ci sono momenti nei quali possiamo riunirci e abbracciare tutto il disordine, questo è quello che io intendo per hallelujah.”Ha una passione infinita  per le donne, le donne  ai suoi occhi sono angeli, pieni di luce, ma sono anche corpi che lo attraggono sessualmente. Tutte le  sue canzoni  sono il ritratto di una donna. Nelle sue canzoni dio e il sesso si incontrano. Lui parla di corpi  in amore, e intanto cerca Dio.Per otto anni vive  sull'isola di Hydra con  Marianne, il suo più grande amore, la sua musa. Ma siccome deve parlare con gli angeli, riparte. E partirà sempre.  A New York  diventa il  cantante più apprezzato in tutto il mondo. Sentirlo cantare è come perdere il senso del tempo, è come entrare nello zoo del Bronx, come ascoltare una lunga preghiera. John Hammond, il geniale impresario, lo ha capito e lo propone alla Columbia.Per cinque anni resta  chiuso in un monastero zen sopra Los Angeles, e medita sull'amore. Scopre, alla fine dei suoi giorni,  che l'amore è  un cuore unificato. Ora è più leggero, e puo' dire : “Hineni, sono pronto mio Signore” Marina Bassani, attrice e regista,  è nata a Milano  e vive  a Torino. Si è diplomata all' Accademia dei Filodrammatici di Milano, medaglia d'oro ex aequo con Lella Costa,  e si è laureata in filosofia.Si è specializzata in  monologhi  teatrali  e i dialoghi teatrali.Ha fondato a Torino  Teatro Selig, nel 1996, inaugurando come attrice  una lunga serie di ritratti letterari e femminili tra cui i  ritratti femminili comici di Alan Bennett. Ha messo in scena Ho volato con l'angelo, il monologo sulla scrittrice  Karen Blixen, ha scritto il  monologo  sulla nobile Costanza d'Azeglio, sulla partigiana Ada Gobetti, e il monologo  sulla cantante francese Barbara ( in cui la Bassani canta  e racconta la sua bio).  E' autrice di  alcuni recitals letterarii . Ha messo in scena al Teatro Baretti di Torino il monologo  La Madre,  tratto dall'opera Vita e Destino di Vassilij Grossman.

Welcome back to the Video Store Podcast! Next week is Thanksgiving, a holiday many of us celebrate by spending time with our families… whether we want to or not. Can you believe my family banned me from bringing the mashed potatoes just because of the time I piled them up into the shape of a mountain and screamed “THIS MEANS SOMETHING” while serving them? My family has no sense of humor. Or appreciation for Close Encounters of the Third Kind.On this week's episode I decided to share a few family films… not necessarily films made for families, but ones that feature families. Sure, some of them are non-traditional family units, but as you all know, we can't choose our families and sometimes we have to accept our relatives for who they are. Even if they're chainsaw-wielding cannibals.My first pick of the week is is the 1974 classic, The Texas Chainsaw Massacre, featuring the Sawyer family. (If you're looking for a conversation starter over Thanksgiving dinner, you can now tell your family you know Leatherface's last name.) The legend of The Texas Chainsaw Massacre is bigger than the film itself. It takes a while before our sacrificial teens get into trouble, and in full disclosure only one person gets killed by a chainsaw, which isn't much of a massacre. The film is nowhere near as gory as people think and people have ripped the idea off hundreds of times in other films, but it's always fun to go back and watch the source of so many horror movie tropers. Good for watching before or after Thanksgiving dinner, but probably not during.Next is 1966's Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf, starring Elizabeth Taylor, Richard Burton, and George Segal. Stylistically, this film always reminded me of 12 Angry Men. Both films (both of which were based on plays) have the ability through dialog to take you on an emotional ride. Both films made strong impressions in me. In Virginia Woolf, George and Martha (Burton and Taylor) invite a younger couple over for drinks after a dinner party. As the alcohol continues to flow, pointed barbs turn to nasty cuts as the couple weaponize their guests against one another. It's a masterclass in acting and you'll have to play close attention to fully understand everyone's motivations and, ultimately, the ending. Woolf is a tragic and powerful film that remains only one of two films to ever be nominated for every Academy Award category it was eligible for. My third recommendation this week is 1985's The Stuff. The Stuff is a delicious and addictive treat that may also be alive and turning people into mindless zombies. After The Stuff ravages the ice cream industry, a former FBI agent nicknamed Mo is hired to figure out what The Stuff is and who is marketing it. Meanwhile, a boy named Jason has discovered the dark side of The Stuff and fights with his family who demand he joins them. Before long Mo and Jason along with ice cream mogul Chocolate Chip Charlie team up to take on The Stuff. Remember, “Enough is never enough!” The Stuff is a little horror and a little comedy with a whole lot of thinly disguised social commentary sprinkled on top. Fun 80s schlock that might have you double-checking the whipped cream on top of your pumpkin pie.Lastly we have Labyrinth, released in 1986. One of Jim Henson's greatest film achievements, Labyrinth tells the story of Sarah, a girl who wishes the Goblin King would take away her young brother Toby… and immediately regrets it. Sarah must work her way through Jareth's labyrinth, with both help and detours presented by its inhabitants. Despite occasionally getting annoyed with our family, there's no stronger bond. While there's a good chance you've seen Labyrinth, I'm worried that maybe your kids, nieces or nephews, or grandkids haven't. This is a great film that deserves to be shared with the next generation. Thanks as always for stopping by the Video Store Podcast. We'll be closed on Thanksgiving which means you'll get an extas day's rental for free on any tapes rented this week. Don't forget to rewind your tapes before returning them, and be sure to pick up your complimentary cup of The Stuff from our snack bar on the way out. Enough is never enough!

I am so excited to say that my guest on the GWA Podcast is the writer, critic, and author, Merve Emre. Currently the Shapiro-Silverberg Professor of Creative Writing and Criticism at Wesleyan University – and the Director of the Shapiro Center for Creative Writing and Criticism – Emre is also the acclaimed and award-winning author of numerous books. These include Paraliterary: The Making of Bad Readers in Postwar America; The Personality Brokers (selected as one of the best books of 2018 by the New York Times, and others); The Ferrante Letters (winner of the 2021 PROSE award for literature). A holder of prizes in Literary Criticism, Emre is also a contributing writer to The New Yorker, where she has written extensively on art and literature, from Leonora Carrington to Susan Sontag. But! The reason why we are speaking to Emre today is because she is also an ardent expert on Virginia Woolf and the wider Bloomsbury Group, having authored the stunningly beautiful – and informative – The Annotated Mrs. Dalloway, a book that brings alive Woolf's life and words, and contextualises the radical and pioneering lives of those in the Bloomsbury Group in the most effervescent ways. So today on the podcast, we are going to be discussing the sisters at the centre of this movement: Vanessa Bell and Virginia Woolf, women who were born into a Victorian society in London but who broke free of all traditions, who formed languages, both artistic and literary, that paved the way of modernism and modernist thinking in the UK and beyond. We are going to be delving into their life and work: looking at how they informed each other and visualised or put into words the world from their distinct and radical perspectives.
