Podcast appearances and mentions of yoko ogawa

Somehow it's June already and we're back with another episode of Shared Pages. May's book was an Ian pick, and he chose Yoko Ogawa's: The Memory Police.   The Memory Police takes place on an unknown island where people periodically forget things such as ribbons, perfume, and so on. However, some people seem to remember things that should have been forgotten and so a mysterious and sinister organization comes and takes those who remember. When the unnamed narrator-a novelist-discovers that her editor, "R" is one of these people who remember things, she decides to hide him. Along with a family friend known only as The "Old Man", they attempt to hold on to what has been forgotten all while navigating what it means to lose memories and even pieces of themselves.   We really enjoyed The Memory Police and we hope you enjoy our discussion of the novel! Next month is Ronnie's pick. For Pride, she's chosen, A Dark and Drowning Tide by Allison Saft!

Polly Barton, Yoko Ogawa, and plays – welcome to episode 128! In the first half of today’s ‘Tea or Books?’ episode, Rachel and I revisit a topic from years ago – plays! Specifically, do we think that plays should be

Uma enrascada: a vontade de ler, conhecer novos autores e se aprofundar em determinadas literaturas é sempre muito maior do que o tempo que temos para explorar todos os universos que desejamos. Boa parte dos leitores também sofre com isso, eu sei. A literatura japonesa está entre aquelas que eu gostaria de dar mais atenção. Seria legal ir além dos autores que já curto, como Yukio Mishima e Yoko Ogawa. Para compreender um pouco melhor a literatura japonesa contemporânea que convidei Rita Kohl para uma conversa. Rita é tradutora que já verteu para o português nomes como Sayaka Murata, autora de “Querida Konbini” e Haruki Murakami, eterno candidato ao Nobel de Literatura. Murakami é um dos assuntos do nosso papo. Outro livro traduzido por Rita é “Museu do Silêncio”, um dos meus favoritos de Yoko Ogawa. Também pesquisadora, Rita é formada em letras pela USP e fez mestrado no Departamento de Literatura Comparada e Cultura da Universidade de Tóquio. O interesse pela cultura japonesa, alguns nomes atuais dessa literatura que merecem a atenção do leitor e particularidades de verter para o português um idioma tão distante do nosso também são assuntos do nosso papo. * Aqui o caminho para a newsletter da Página Cinco: https://paginacinco.substack.com/

The story in The New Yorker's November 27, 2023, issue is “Beauty Contest,” by Yoko Ogawa, translated from the Japanese by Steven Snyder. Ogawa was not able to read her story for The Writer's Voice, but, on a recent episode of the New Yorker Fiction Podcast, the writer Madeleine Thien read and discussed Ogawa's 2004 story “The Cafeteria in the Evening and a Pool in the Rain,” and we wanted to share that episode with you instead. We hope you enjoy it. 

La fórmula preferida del profesor, de Yoko Ogawa, es una hermosa historia de amistad, amor y familia que protagoniza un profesor de matemáticas de avanzada edad que, después de un accidente, solo tiene 80 minutos de memoria, una asistente que es contratada para cuidarlo y su hijo, de diez años. Entre la pasión por las matemáticas, el beisbol y el vínculo de fraternidad que se construye entre los personajes, Yoko logra entrelazar la pureza de las relaciones sociales y la humanidad en este bello texto: la admiración por la sabiduría, la compasión, el despertar de la inteligencia y la suave armonía con la que el viento y el sol hacen cálido el corazón de todos. Una historia que parece sencilla pero debajo de sus líneas encierra un mensaje de bondad y una enseñanza universal: el amor. Invitados especiales: Ricardo y Daisy, de @librariachile

Japanese novelist Haruki Murakami hosted a ghost story reading event in Tokyo amid growing attention before the announcement of this year's Nobel Prize in Literature, an award he is a perennial favorite to win. Murakami said at the September 28 reading that he enjoys scary stories and wants to write more of them. The event featured one from the 18th-century collection “Tales of Moonlight and Rain,” which intrigued Murakami since his childhood and is known to have inspired his work. The classic collection written by Akinari Ueda called “Ugetsu Monogatari” in Japanese explores a blurry borderline between the real and surreal, which Murakami said in a guide he contributed to a 2021 magazine made him wonder which side he was on. Borders and walls are important motifs in Murakami's writing. Protagonists in his stories often travel through walls or between two worlds and encounter mysterious, exotic characters. While Murakami has said he grew up mostly reading Western novels, some experts have also noted the influence of Ueda's stories in some of Murakami's work. Murakami has been a candidate for the Nobel Prize in Literature for more than a decade, and the winner of the 2023 prize was announced on October 5. If he had won, he would have been the first Japanese writer since Kenzaburo Oe in 1994 to be named a Nobel laureate. Japanese media also have mentioned novelists Yoko Ogawa and Yoko Tawada as possible contenders in recent years. The Nobel Prize did not come up at September 28's ghost story event. Kayoko Shiraishi, a veteran actress known for ghost tale monologues, performed Ugetsu's “The Kibitsu Cauldron," a story of an imprudent man who marries a priest's good daughter despite a cauldron's fortunetelling revealing a bad omen. The protagonist meets a horrendous end after betraying his wife, who becomes a vengeful spirit. Murakami wrote his first published novel, 1979's “Hear the Wind Sing,” after being inspired to write fiction while watching a baseball game at Meiji Jingu Stadium. This article was provided by The Associated Press.

Yoko Ogawa's The Memory Police, translated by Stephen Snyder, is a haunting and provocative fable about the power of memory and the trauma of loss, which was shortlisted for the International Booker Prize in 2020. On an unnamed island, things are disappearing and most of the island's residents are forgetting all about them. It starts small with hats and ribbons but it soon escalates. When a novelist discovers that her editor – who, for some reason, doesn't forget – is in danger from the draconian Memory Police, she concocts a plan to save him. Join us as we explore our latest Book of the Month. In this episode Jo and James: Share a brief author biography Summarise the novel's plot Consider whether the book is about totalitarian regimes or fascist politics, as many of the book's reviewers suggested, or whether it's about something altogether more mysterious Discuss how translations may affect our reading of the book, in quite significant ways Wonder whether forgetting is really that bad Suggest who should read the book Reading list: The Memory Police by Yoko Ogawa, translated by Stephen Snyder Nineteen Eighty-Four by George Orwell The Buried Giant by Kazuo Ishiguro Diary of a Void by Emi Yagi Further reading: A profile of Yoko Ogawa in The New York Times A full transcript of the episode is available at our website.

Hello from Tammy's COVID bunker! This week, after a short tribute to Montana's “dean of journalism,” Chuck Johnson, R.I.P., Tammy speaks with Kshama Sawant, the three-term socialist Seattle City Councilmember who recently announced that she will not seek reelection after this year. Instead, she has launched Workers Strike Back, “an independent, rank-and-file campaign” to support organizing nationwide. We discuss [9:42] the Amazonification of Seattle, [31:05] a historic municipal bill banning caste discrimination, and [38:28] critiques of Sawant's approach to politics and organizing. Plus: Tammy and Kshama debate union strategy.In this episode, we ask: Does socialism provide answers to today's woes? What did the Black Lives Matter protests in 2020 reveal about identity politics?  How might the Dobbs ruling and other failures of Democratic leadership help us envision a new political party? What does DSA get right and wrong? For more, read: * Tammy's 2019 mini-profile of Kshama * Kshama's labor history fave: Teamster Rebellion by Farrell Dobbs   * A Kentucky worker on “How We're Fighting for a Union at Amazon's Biggest Air Hub”* Kshama's recent bill, making Seattle “the first U.S. city to ban caste discrimination"And some extras from the TTSG team: * Tammy and Mai recommend the French-German-Belgian film, “Return to Seoul,” currently playing in some U.S. theaters.* Tammy semi-recommends the return of the LA-catering comedy “Party Down” (though the first two seasons remain vastly superior) and really recommends these sly, tingly novellas, translated from the Japanese, by Yoko Ogawa. * A happy follow-up to the housing episode with Ritti Singh and Navneet Grewal, reported by TTSG guest Wilfred Chan: “‘It's legal, there's just no precedent': the first US town to demand a rent decrease”* More news in racial impostors, via Andy: “Raquel Evita Saraswati pretended to be a woman of color. Her deception traumatized the communities she claimed to help.”* Some devastating TikToks by college applicants, courtesy of Jay Thanks for listening!

Yoko Ogawa's 1994 masterpiece "The Memory Police" is much more than a dystopian novel. It delves into the ways that memory connects with everything-from our deepest sense of self, to our friendships and relationships, to our daily routines. What can memory tell us about grief, loss, and resitance to "quiet authoritarianism?" -Consider Supporting the Podcast!- Support the podcast on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/reflectinghistory Check out my podcast series on Arcane, The Dark Knight Trilogy, and Nazi Germany and the Battle for the Human Heart here: https://www.reflectinghistory.com/bonuscontent Try my audio course: Why do 'good' people support evil leaders?

The Uncanny Reader: Stories from the Shadows (St. Martin's Griffin)  From the deeply unsettling to the possibly supernatural, these thirty-one border-crossing stories from around the world explore the uncanny in literature, and delve into our increasingly unstable sense of self, home, and planet. The Uncanny Reader: Stories from the Shadows opens with “The Sand-man,” E.T.A. Hoffmann's 1817 tale of dopplegangers and automatons—a tale that inspired generations of writers and thinkers to come. Stories by 19th and 20th century masters of the uncanny—including Edgar Allan Poe, Franz Kafka, and Shirley Jackson—form a foundation for sixteen award-winning contemporary authors, established and new, whose work blurs the boundaries between the familiar and the unknown. These writers come from Egypt, France, Germany, Japan, Poland, Russia, Scotland, England, Sweden, the United States, Uruguay, and Zambia—although their birthplaces are not always the terrains they plumb in their stories, nor do they confine themselves to their own eras. Contemporary authors include: Chris Adrian, Aimee Bender, Kate Bernheimer, Jean-Christophe Duchon-Doris, Mansoura Ez-Eldin, Jonathon Carroll, John Herdman, Kelly Link, Steven Millhauser, Joyce Carol Oates, Yoko Ogawa, Dean Paschal, Karen Russell, Namwali Serpell, Steve Stern and Karen Tidbeck. Marjorie Sandor is the author of four books, most recently The Late Interiors: A Life Under Construction. Her story collection, Portrait of my Mother, Who Posed Nude in Wartime, won the 2004 National Jewish Book Award in Fiction, and an essay collection, The Night Gardener: A Search for Home won the 2000 Oregon Book Award for literary non-fiction. Her work has appeared in The Georgia Review, AGNI, The Hopkins Review and The Harvard Review among others. She lives in Corvallis, Oregon. Aimee Bender is the author of the novels The Color Master, The Particular Sadness of Lemon Cake—a New York Times bestseller—and An Invisible Sign of My Own, and of the collections The Girl in the Flammable Skirt and Willful Creatures. Her works have been widely anthologized and have been translated into sixteen languages. She lives in Los Angeles.
