Episode 06: Laura van den Berg and Catherine Lacey

  • Resumen

  • This week on Well-Versed, Emily Bell, director and Senior Editor of FSG Originals, talks with writers Laura van den Berg and Catherine Lacey about their new books, making it through the profound bewilderment of novel-writing, and the relationship between the bizarre and the mundane. Pew, Catherine Lacey’s third novel, is a foreboding, provocative, and amorphous fable about the world today: its contradictions, its flimsy morality, and the limits of judging others based on their appearance. With precision and restraint, one of our most beloved and boundary-pushing writers holds up a mirror to her characters’ true selves, revealing something about forgiveness, perception, and the faulty tools society uses to categorize human complexity. I Hold the Wolf by the Ears, Laura van den Berg’s first story collection since her prizewinning book The Isle of Youth, draws readers into a world of wholly original, sideways ghost stories that linger in the mouth and the mind. Both timeless and urgent, these eleven stories confront misogyny, violence, and the impossible economics of America with van den Berg’s trademark spiky humor and surreal eye.  Learn more about your ad choices.
