Ep 281: Our Evenings by Alan Hollinghurst
Anna and Geoff review OUR EVENINGS the new novel by Booker Prize-winning author Alan Hollinghurst. Dave Win is a Burmese-British actor reminiscing about his life, growing up as a gay man in the 1960s through to 2019. We loved the exact and beautiful prose but found it slow. The blurb also suggests a tension between Dave and bully Giles whereas the story is more of a (fictional) memoir of Dave and his mother. The Sunday Times called it 'the best novel that's been written about contemporary Britain in the past ten years.' An interesting read and much to discuss!

Friends of Dorothy: Gay Literature and Experience. Édouard Louis and Alan Hollinghurst in conversation
Édouard Louis 2022: Alan Hollinghurst and Édouard Louis have long read each other’s books with great interest. While Louis has written brutally honest depictions of growing up gay in a homophobic family and environment, Hollinghurst’s fiction explores gay culture and experience through the decades, including the AIDS crisis and gay life prior to decriminalization in the UK. While Norway marks 50 years since homosexuality was decriminalized this year, LGBT rights are being curbed around the world, and this year’s Oslo Pride ended in a fatal shooting. In such a climate, is the gay writer forced into an activist role by virtue o...

Venner av Dorothy. Homofil litteratur og erfaring. Édouard Louis og Alan Hollinghurst i samtale
Édouard Louis 2022: Alan Hollinghurst og Édouard Louis har lenge lest hverandres bøker med stor interesse. Mens Louis har skrevet brutalt og ærlig om å vokse opp som homofil i en homofob familie og nærmiljø, har Hollinghurst gjennom sin litteratur utforsket homofil kultur og erfaring gjennom tiårene, deriblant AIDS-krisen og livet som skeiv før avkriminaliseringen i Storbritannia. Mens Norge i år markerer 50 år siden homofili ble avkriminalisert, blir lhbt-rettigheter svekket verden over, og årets Oslo Pride endte med en dødelig skyteepisode. Hvordan er det å være homofil forfatter i en slik virkelighet? Tvinges man inn i en aktivistrolle i...

Read By: Alan Hollinghurst
Alan Hollinghurst on his selection: I read “September 1, 1939,” the date being that of Hitler’s invasion of Poland, which marks the start of the Second World War. It’s a poem Auden himself was dissatisfied with, he cut it, changed some important wording, and later refused to reprint it, feeling it was intellectually dishonest. Nonetheless, in its magnificent rhetoric and its address to issues which continue to press upon us, it retains a power to move, to frighten and to reassure. It’s a poem which comes often to my mind these days, as so many things around us get worse and...

Literary Friction - Luxury With Shola Von Reinhold
What does it mean to write luxuriously? How can books be rich and generous? This month we’re talking about luxury in literature - and no, we don’t mean books about the 1% having spa days or flying first class. Instead, we’re talking about writing that explores the aesthetic, opulent, baroque and decadent. Through writers including Oscar Wilde, F. Scott Fitzgerald and Sylvia Plath, we’ll be thinking about what makes writing luxurious, and why engaging with luxury can be a subversive act of resistance for marginalised communities. Our guest today is Shola von Reinhold, whose debut novel Lote is about...
