Hello everyone. Today’s guest is the brilliant Nada Alic. She has a new book out called Bad Thoughts (Vintage). It's her debut collection. Buy it wherever books are sold. Selected Prose highly recommends Bad Thoughts. Nada is a refreshingly original writer. Her voice is unique, she's wise beyond her years, and she's hilarious. My favorite stories in here were The Intruder, Daddy's Girl, and Earth To Lydia. Some people have compared Nada Alic to Miranda July or Sally Rooney. I don’t really know what that means. Nada Alic is Nada Alic. And she’s very good. This debut is quite an achievement. And I'm happy to have learned we can expect a novel from her in the near future... Enjoy! As always, if you like this podcast, please leave a review on Apple Podcasts or support on Patreon.…

Our next guest is professor Brandon Gauthier. Brandon completed his doctorate in Modern History at Fordham University in 2016. He is the Director of Global Education at The Derryfield School and an Adjunct Professor of History for Fordham University. His first book, BEFORE EVIL: Young Lenin, Hitler, Stalin, Mussolini, Mao, and Kim came out in April of 2022, from Tortoise Books. Here is a brief summary of this compelling examination of the lives of the 20th century's worst dictators: "Historian Brandon K. Gauthier has created a fascinating work—epic yet intimate, well-researched but immensely readable, clear-eyed and empathetic—looking at the lives of these six dictators, with a focus on their youths. We watch Lenin’s older brother executed at the hands of the Tsar’s police—an event that helped radicalize this overachieving high-schooler. We observe Stalin grappling with the death of his young, beautiful wife. We see Hitler’s mother mourning the loss of three young children—and determined that her first son to survive infancy would find his place in the world. The purpose isn’t to excuse or simply explain these horrible men, but rather to treat them with the empathy they themselves too often lacked. We may prefer to hold such lives at arm’s length so as to demonize them at will, but this book reminds us that these monstrous rulers were also human beings—and perhaps more relatable than we’d like." *Content Warning* - We discuss online radicalism and mass murder.…

Today's guest is the great Hannah Lillith Assadi . Her new novel, The Stars Are Not Yet Bells , was published by Riverhead in early January. It was named a Most Anticipated book of the year by The Washington Post, Good Morning America, Bustle, Lit Hub, Hey Alma, and The Millions. I recommend Stars , especially if you're fond of unreliable narrators, the slippery nature of memory, and the Great Mystery. In this interview, we discuss creating and executing unreliable narrators, Faulkner, toying with time and chronology, the good and bad of publishing, Hannah's revision process, death and dying, the afterlife , and more. Not only is Hannah a brilliant writer, but she's also a professor of creative writing at Columbia's MFA program . You'll learn much from her, I have no doubt. *Support the podcast by recommending it to a friend or an enemy, leaving a review on Apple Podcasts, or subscribing to the Selected Prose Patreon*…

Mark Leidner is today's guest! Mark is a brilliant, hilarious, and extraordinarily talented poet, fiction writer, filmmaker, and more! I've read two of his books, Under The Sea (Tyrant) and Returning the Sword to the Stone (Fonograf Editions), and each of them filled me with joy, made me laugh hysterically, and provided me with a sense of proximity to The Great Mystery that is this life. I love Mark's work. If you haven't read him, I suggest you do so, pronto! Also, follow him on twitter because he is extremely funny ( @markleidner ) Enjoy this interview!
