In this episode, Michael Brodsky and host George Salis discuss suffering in the writer’s external world and the internal world, reaching toward perfection and the impossibility of containing the cosmos in a novel, the necessity/obligation of creating art versus abstaining from it, how words have a right to life, the most important book Michael has read, his 1,200-page magnum opus Invidicum (2023), and much more.
Michael Brodsky, born in New York City on August 2, 1948, is a novelist, playwright, and short-story writer. He is best known for his novels, including Detour (1977) (for which he received the Ernest Hemingway Foundation Citation from PEN); Xman (1987); and *** (1994), as well as for his translation of Samuel Beckett’s Eleuthéria. He lives in Manhattan, on Roosevelt Island. His latest novel is Invidicum.
