Europe Central by William T. Vollmann & Norwegian Wood by Haruki Murakami
Show Notes:This week, Cameron dives into William T. Vollmann’s Europe Central and Haruki Murakami’s Norwegian Wood. The uniting theme this week: reflection and memory. Both novels cast a long shadow over his life, so it’s time to untangle exactly why that is. Can Europe Central be cleanly read as a series of parables? Is it appropriate to turn Hitler into a sort-of fairy tale? Is it a red flag that Cameron has read Norwegian Wood six times? Tune in to find your answers.

Episode 105: Wrists Be Damned: or, How We Learned to Stop Worrying and Love Big Books
In this episode, Trevor and Paul are joined by Chris Via of Leaf by Leaf to celebrate the experience of reading big books. From the books that once intimidated us to the ones we now can't imagine our overburdened shelves without, we dive into what makes a book feel "big." Along the way, we share personal stories, favorite strategies for tackling doorstoppers, the books that stretched us as readers, and reflect on why some big books stay with us for life. Whether you're a lifelong lover of big books or someone who's still building up your wrist strength, this...

Episode 104: Hanne Ørstavik
What happens when a writer turns silence, fear, grief—and love?—into novels that are barely a couple hundred pages but echo for days? Whether it’s love withheld, misplaced, or mourned, Ørstavik’s novels speak to each other through unspoken longing and the disorienting nature of grief—with a quiet, cumulative power that’s hard to shake. In this episode, we explore the devastating brilliance of Hanne Ørstavik, the Norwegian author whose emotionally precise novels—Love, The Pastor, Ti Amo, and Stay with Me (neither of us has read The Blue Room, but we have it on order)—have deeply moved...

Ammalarsi di povertà
“Perché sei povero?” è la domanda che lo scrittore William T. Vollmann pone alle persone indigenti che incontra e intervista tra gli anni Novanta e Duemila in giro per il mondo. Dal materiale raccolto in quei viaggi e rielaborato come solo un grandissimo poteva fare, nasce il libro I poveri, affresco di un’umanità ferita che porta l’autore stesso a mettersi in discussione in quanto persona e scrittore. Lo sguardo di Vollmann, soffermandosi anche sull’inestricabile legame tra svantaggio sociale e malattia, ci offre così l’occasione di indagare questo doppio volto della vulnerabilità, estendendo il discorso oltre i confini della sol...

William Vollmann reads from 'The Dying Grass'
William Vollmann's 'The Dying Grass' depicting the Nez Perce War is the latest in the National Book Award-winning author's series of novels examining the collisions between Native Americans and Europeans. -- Defrauded and intimidated at every turn, the Nez Perces finally went on the warpath in 1877, subjecting the U.S. Army to its greatest defeat since Little Big Horn as they fled from northeast Oregon across Montana to the Canadian border. Vollmann’s main character is not the legendary Chief Joseph, but his pursuer, General Oliver Otis Howard, the brave, shy, tormented, devoutly Christian Civil War veteran. In this novel, we...

La voce del reporter, dello storico, del reietto e del romanziere risultano spesso inestricabili nella sua vasta produzione: dai disperati racconti di prostituzione al centro di Storie della farfalla, all’indagine sulla violenza di Come un’onda che sale e che scende, senza dimenticare l'allucinata saga totalitaria Europe Central, con il quale nel 2005 ha vinto il National Book Award. A Festivaletteratura 2022 Vollmann ha incontrato la scrittrice Claudia Durastanti, da sempre sua appassionata lettrice.

Poi l'ennesima morte di un reporter di guerra in Afghanistan ci fa riflettere sull'importanza dell'informazione al giorno d'oggi; uno sguardo sul ruolo delle potenze nel mondo viene espresso al meglio in “Afghanistan Picture Show”. Infine il resoconto dell'operazione vaccino in Italia fa ben sperare e riflettere sul valore delle scoperte scientifiche, come accade nell'ultimo libro di Hanya Yanaghiara.

Such bald-faced lies conspired with long-sublimated national myths to obscure the actual crisis at our border, and to obscure the identities of those suffering the consequences. In the interviews and photographs that compose William T. Vollmann’s cover story for the July issue of...
