@Therewillbbooks Pretty sure no, but it’s fun to think about
New Followers! Remember us? and how we don't post consistently? We just released our new episode on Juan Rulfo's El llano en llams! Go listen! podbean.com/ew/pb-mb6cg-16…
Our favorite time of year (guessing the lit Nobel)!! Who are we putting money on this year?
In translation, Can Xue has only been published by small presses and university presses, so you should probably order your books now-ish. Stuff’s gonna sell out instantly when she wins the Nobel in three weeks
To our (like 8) new followers I need to let you know: we don’t post often or consistently, but luckily we have a bevy of episodes that you can start making your way through
Someday I will be good at twitter, and today it that day! NEW EPISODE on POOR THINGS by Alasdair Gray. Available wherever you get your podcasts. XXXV. Ethics and Aesthetics open.substack.com/pub/desperater…
I was invited on the @DesperateReads podcast to talk about The Turn of the Screw and ghosts n shit. Listen if you’d like toooooo, boo itunes.apple.com/WebObjects/MZS…
Bolaño in an interview: (Q: Which five books have marked your life?) “I’ll mention these only as the tip of the spear: Don Quixote by Cervantes, Moby-Dick by Melville. The complete works of Borges, Hopscotch by Cortázar, A Confederacy of Dunces by Toole. [+]
As requested, Bolaño smoking. There are quite a few cartoons and other fan artworks of this subject.
This is amazing news english.elpais.com/culture/2023-1…
New bonus episode out on The House of Asterion by Jorge Luis Borges 👀 a sneak peak of what’s to come for season 2 !!! Available where you get your podcasts
Overrated classic: Miguel de Cervantes, Don Quixote - Trite juxtaposition of romance and reality - Cliché ridden - Product of its time Read instead: Pierre Menard, Don Quixote - Endlessly ambiguous - Philosophically bold - Thrillingly anachronistic
Lots we've covered on the pod but French highlights include The Ravishing of Lol Stein by Marguerite Duras, The Last Summer of Reason by Tahar Djaout, and Bound to Violence by Yambo Ouoluguem :)
Episode XXVI—The Metamorphosis by Franz Kafka This week we are talking to @zach_n_cheez about being a weird little bug, sadomasochism, body horror and more. Available wherever you get your podcasts!!
