Ark AudioArk Audio Book Club #9 Dark Spring By Unica ZürnThis month on the Ark Audio Book Club we read Unica Zürn's 1967 Book 'Dark Spring'. It's the story of a young girl growing up in the suburbs of Berlin, but it's really about her fatally complicated sexual awakening. It’s sort of like the Bell Jar by Sylvia Plath but with more misery and general anxiety. This month's book club are Franek Korbanski, Sarah Ommanney, Macon Holt and hosted by Giovanna Alesandro.

Ark AudioArk Audio Book Club #7 Submission by Michel HouellebecqIn the 7th edition of the Ark Audio Book Club we talk about Michel Houellebecq's 2015 novel 'Submission'. The novel is set in the year 2022 in France, and the political tension is escalating. We become acquainted with 40-something Francoise who is professor of 19th century literature at the Sorbonne university and moves through life with a total indifference, that is portrayed quite well within the simple prose of the novel. We have to say that we just didn’t like the book that much and that it in no way merits the title
‘’most important book of the year 2015’’. It could be compare...

Ark AudioArk Audio Book Club #6 Story of the Eye by George BatailleIn the 6th episode of the ark audio book club we are talking about French philosopher Georges Bataille’s novel 'Story of the Eye’, which was originally published in 1928 but wasn’t translated into English, until 51 years later, in 1979. To quote from the paris review; "Story of the Eye, is a dirty book by an unhappy Frenchman. It chronicles the amatory hijinks of a nameless but extremely open-minded narrator, his girlfriend Simone, an English voyeur named Sir Edmund, and Marcelle, a suicidal, mentally ill sixteen-year old. A staggering amount of mirthless sex is had by all, much of it in front...

Ark AudioArk Audio Book Club #5 I Love Dick, by Chris Kraus (Feat. Emma Holten)In the 5th edition of the ark audio book club we are examining "I Love Dick" by Chris Kraus, originally published by Semiotext(e) in 1997, reprinted in 2015 by Tuskar Rock Press in Great Britain. This new edition of the book looks like a toxic spill, with it’s acid green cover and pink letters, it looks like a light read you might enjoy while lying by the pool in Tenerife, but FOR REALS, it’s not a light read, its an explosion and arguably the best book I’ll have read in 2016. We'd also like to thank Telka Peløva from th...
