A Shakespeare and Company Interview: David Szalay on his novel β€œFlesh” Shakespeare and Company’s Adam Biles discusses memory and masculinity with novelist David Szalay.

David Szalay reflects on the elusive moral terrain of his Booker Prize–winning novel FLESHβ€”and why, from the very beginning, he set out to express things "obliquely, because to express them directly was, in a way, beyond the power of words."

The Lyrical Literature of Distant Listening | Modernism / Modernity Print+ Distant listeningβ€”a practice born with radio amateurism, known as DXing among American radio enthusiastsβ€”was the term used to designate an essential dimension of radio during the interwar period: the capacity to listen to radio stations far away. What this involved was not just the fine-tuning of a wireless set, but educated guesses about foreign identification signals,

In a teaser article from our latest print issue, β€œThe Lyrical Literature of Distant Listening,” Emilie Morin moves between sound, lyric form, and modernist experimentation asks what it means to hear literature rather than simply read it.

Outsmarting cancer A new book argues that half of all cancer deaths could be preventable through lifestyle changes and social reforms.

"The research shows only 10-20% of all cancer diagnoses are tied to specific hereditary mutations...The vast majority of cancers occur randomly." This is why we should all get screened! Listen to OUTSMARTING CANCER author Dr. Adam Barsouk on @wbai.org: bit.ly/46ExRGY. @hopkinspress.bsky.social

"I wrote an ode
to reticence, my habit
of perfection. The held

its wetting tract is not,
as Hopkins said, renunciation
but a space, I think
for coiled sound to shift."
