Feeling Bookish Podcast - Special Guest: Daisy Eris Campbell - Episode No. 38

Special Guest: Daisy Eris Campbell - Episode No. 38

03/22/21 • 63 min

Feeling Bookish Podcast
In our latest episode, we talk with writer, director and producer Daisy Eris Campbell, a leading counter-cultural voice in the U.K. We explore the legacy of Robert Anton Wilson and Ken Campbell, the cult classic Illuminatus novels and their legendary 9-hour theatrical adaptation, Daisy's play Cosmic Trigger and the mad fun it spawned, the KLF and burning money, the jesting religion of Discordianism, and much more. We cram a lot into this talk, so as you listen, remember Wilson's Rule #23: If you don't laugh, you've missed the point; if you only laugh, you've missed your chance at illumination.

The Diaries of Emilio Renzi by Ricardo Piglia - Episode No. 37

We talk about the "The Diaries of Emilio Renzi" by the Argentine writer Ricardo Piglia with Piglia translator Robert Croll and the publisher of Restless Books Ilan Stavans. We discuss how these books fit into both the Argentine and Latin American literary tradition, along with Piglia's use of the Renzi alter ego, his artistic integrity and "the doubling" that occurs in these special books.

The Reading Blues & Other Sorrows - Episode No. 39

A conversation from March that we only now just published. We're a bit over-read, over-worked and feeling the general wear-and-tear of COVID-19 and related challenges. We talk about the Philip Roth bio (prior to revelations about the biographer); Raymond Smullyan; the new bio of the painter Lucian Freud; the challenge of directed reading; and the Picasso bio project of the late John Richardson--and much more.
