A Reading Life, A Writing Life, with Sally Bayley
Orphan Power
This week, Sally has been reflecting on her ‘orphan power’, a phrase once applied to her by Will Self, and her relationship with orphaned literary characters such as Jane Eyre. Listen for a meditation on isolation, belonging, and the communities that art can provide. The extracts performed here involving Jane Eyre and Miss Marple are from Sally’s first coming of age novel, Girl with Dove (William Collins, 2018). The wonderful piano music in the opening section is 'Rain', by Paul Sebastian. This episode was partially inspired by Sally being asked to speak at a symp...

A Ana recomenda o ‘Intermezzo’ (2024), da Sally Rooney, e enceta uma tentativa de análise comparada com uma obra bastante conhecida. O Tomé viaja pelas memórias de Stefan Zweig e pela sua Europa perdida com o livro ‘O Mundo de Ontem’ (1942). Na segunda parte, a Ana e o Tomé (mas especialmente a Ana) falam de “retellings”. Reunindo muitos fãs, os retellings são uma abordagem diferente a histórias já conhecidas da literatura, mas podem fazê-lo de formas muito diferentes. Errata: A Ana deve ter comido as palavras, m...

59. Sally Jane Smith - Author of Unpacking for Greece
In this episode I am joined by Sally Jane Smith. Immigrant Australian Sally Jane Smith has lived on five continents and visited thirty-three countries, but she gives credit to Greece for turning her into a writer. In 2006, a traumatic solo travel accident broke both her body and her spirit. A decade on, she journeyed to Greece in a quest to recover her wanderlust – and proved it is possible for an out-of-shape, middle-aged woman on a budget, equipped only with a guidebook and her mother’s 1978 travel diary, to experience a life-changing adventure. Unpacking for Greece – which travels to Athens, Monemvasia, Sparta, Me...

Sunshine of the Heart
Sally treads old familiar pathways through fields of corn and wheat in Sussex, very close to the place she grew up. Her thoughts are with Charlotte Brontë, who wrote haunting poems about her own complex, equivocal feelings towards her childhood and the place she grew up. Sally reads the famous opening passage from Brontë's novel Jane Eyre. Jane, an unwanted orphan who retreats into the world of books was a pivotal figure in Sally's psychological development as a young teenager. Charlotte Brontë (1816 to 1855) was the eldest of the three Brontë sisters who lived to adulthood. She live...

Sally takes a trip on her shiny blue electric scooter to Oxford Public Library, where she picks up a novel by the iconic British modernist writer Jean Rhys. After a disturbing experience at the hospital, she seeks refuge in Rhys’ existentialist narrative of rootless but indomitable women, who eke out a living on the margins of society while searching for love, beauty and a sense of belonging. Further Reading: Jean Rhys was born in 1890 and brought up on the Caribbean island of Dominica. She was sent to England to further her education at the age of...

The Green Lady
On a cold boat, Sally is warmed by her fire, the sound of her neighbours, and the cathartic practice of “speaking in tongues”, a technique she learned as a very young child from her aunt, who ran an all-female Christian charismatic group and would suddenly launch into these emotional outbursts. She reflects on how this practice may express the longings of the subconscious, and may have influenced her writing. Then she corrects the proofs of her next book, The Green Lady, the third in her series of “coming-of-age” memoirs, or anti-memoirs. Further Reading Sally’s fi...

Notes (and other Noises) From The Underground
The Velvet Underground came hustling out of Midtown Manhattan’s brownstone gulches high on a cocktail of beat lit, R & B and La Monte Young’s minimalist drones; a miasma of unapproachable menace seeping from every pore. Before joining, John Cale (voted “the most hateful student” at college) had devised a performance piece that consisted of screaming at a plant until it died (the plucky hollyhock survived). The Velvets extended that premise to their audiences (ditto). Brian Eno would later point out that although their first album sold hardly any copies, everyone that did buy it, immed...
