Podcast IS99 — O ColecionadorMas não é o de ossos kkkk “O Colecionador”John Fowles: obra-prima da literatura inglesa do século XX, que se destaca por abordar de maneira profunda e angustiante temas como obsessão, posse e poder.Se você curte um suspense psicológico daqueles que te deixa com um nó no estômago, O Colecionador é leitura obrigatória. Escrito por John Fowles e lançado lá em 1963, o livro é um soco no estômago disfarçado de narrativa elegante. A história gira em torno de Frederick Clegg, um sujeito aparentemente inofensivo — meio apagado, meio esquisitão — que trabalha em um empreg...

John Sandoe BooksRupert Thomson: How to Make a BombRupert Thomson has attracted the kind of critical acclaim which would flatter any rockstar, let alone writer. He's been compared to Dickens, Kafka and Grace Jones; The Insult was chosen by David Bowie as one of his 100 favourite novels of all time; and his first novel, Dreams of Leaving - one of the earliest books to be published by Bloomsbury soon after it was established in 1986 - found fans in everyone from the drummer of Souxsie and the Banshees to the New Statesman, who said, “When someone writes as well as Thomson does, it's a wonder other people bother”.

Academy of Ideas#LockdownDebates: Love under lockdown - are we finished with intimacy?LOCKDOWN DEBATE: What is it like to fall in love in today, when there seems to be so many more factors involved in intimacy than the feelings of two people? Is the isolation and atomisation of love (or lack of it) in lockdown new, or merely an extreme catalysing of a familiar trend in modern dating? How do we balance the desire to right the wrongs of the past, with an understanding that the intimate encounters we often cherish the most are the ones that took us by surprise?

Monster Stories Podcast - Living with Evil16. " This is What Happens When You Disobey." or, Keeping the Captive in Her Place In this episode we explore some of the faces of captivity: What are some of the psychological dynamics between captor and captive? What do these experiences look like for the “average” (?!) person being held in captivity by a psychopath? The personal experiences of captivity as seen outside of the extreme situations reported in the news and made into films, may look a lot different yet, bespeak the same psychological dynamics. We look at how the entire concept of captivity has been so commodified and sexualized, that it has occluded, hence de-emphasized the importance of scrutinizing this perverse and dang...
