Samantha Hunt, de la vague à l’âme
Roman Article réservé aux abonnés Le cahier Livres de Libédossier Le conseil ne s’applique pas à celles et ceux qui s’y plongeront mais, ici seulement, commençons par la fin. Dans sa postface (à l’origine une préface) à ce texte initialement publié aux Etats-Unis en 2004, Maggie Nelson a des mots simples et bienvenus, des mots de lectrice, lesquels accueillent à bras ouverts face à l’étourdissement et la solitude qui suivent parfois le point final d’un livre aimé.
The Art of Fiction No. 137
Interviewed by Jeanne McCulloch & Mona Simpson There is no direct flight from New York City to Clinton, Ontario, the Canadian town of three thousand where Alice Munro lives most of the year. We left LaGuardia early on a June morning, rented a car in Toronto, and drove for three hours on roads that grew smaller and more rural. Around dusk, we pulled up to the house where Munro lives with her second husband, Gerry Fremlin.

James Ellroy Reveals the Real Reason He Writes
“A literature that cannot be vulgarized is no literature at all, and will not last.” Frank O’Connor laid it out. He wrote the words at the cusp of the 20th century. Said words prophesied the hard-boiled novel. Hard-boiled scorched its artistic debut on February 1, 1929. Dashiell Hammett’s first novel, Red Harvest, hit bookstores.
Carrie Brownstein | Bend Film Fest | Jackpot Records
This week on “State of Wonder,” we talk Sleater-Kinney and “Portlandia” with Carrie Brownstein, get a preview of the Bend Film Fest, paint some eyeballs with ocularist Fred Harwin and more. Work from regional movie makers is on screen alongside some of the smash hits from the Cannes Film Festival and other premier venues at this year’s Bend Film Festival, running Oct. 12–15.
Literature’s Great Alternative Families – Electric Literature
There is no shortage of pithy, heartwarming or glib adages about family. Oscar Wilde said, “After a good dinner one can forgive anybody, even one’s own relations,” though this year, post-election, found plenty of blood relations tossed from celebrations and family gatherings. There’s another essential family, the constructed family, that motley crew of old friends who have loyally stuck by you over the years.
Mary Karr and Mary-Louise Parker kick off Arts & Letters season with memoir musings
So it makes sense that the two Marys are friends, and that they'll share a stage Monday at the Dallas Museum of Art for the season opener of Arts & Letters Live . I wrote about Karr in 2010 upon the release of her third memoir, Lit (following The Liar's Club and Cherry). We talked about her life, her books, her sobriety, and, yes, about the art of memoir. You can read that story below. You can also listen to our recent interview with Karr on the Mixed Media Podcast.
Candace Bushnell: Sex And The City author not spoofing Carrie Bradshaw in Killing Monica
She is responsible for writing one of the most successful franchises in Hollywood, so author Candace Bushnell can understand why fans are comparing her latest book, Killing Monica, to Sex And The City. The writer's novel focuses on a completely new set of characters in Manhattan but fans are drawing similarities between Bushnell's new heroine and SATC's Carrie Bradshaw. Speaking to the IBTimes UK's A-List, the acclaimed author sets the record straight...
What they're reading: Amanda Filipacchi
Amanda Filipacchi takes a darkly comedic stab at friendship, identity and the value society places on women's appearances in her latest satirical novel, The Unfortunate Importance of Beauty. Our reviewer writes that the novel "takes on some thorny issues and speaks to both the mind and heart at the same time. Not to mention the funny bone." (Read the review here.) We asked Filipacchi to tell us about three books she's been reading lately, and she graciously agreed to share.
Addressing Sexism in NY's Art World in the Novel The Blazing World
Siri Hustvedt talks about her new novel, The Blazing World, which has been longlisted for the Man Booker Prize. It tells the provocative story of artist Harriet Burden, who, after years of having her work ignored, recruits three young men to present her work as their own, setting off a scandal in the art world.
