Novel Syllabus 2024

This coming year I think I'm going to be on here more often than I am on twitter or elsewhere, and as part of that, I'm going to start documenting the process of writing my novel more actively. I want to return to/resurrect the momentum and energy I had while writing the first draft and be more intentional about setting aside time to work, even when it's difficult. Below are my writing goals for the coming year as well as my reading list of texts for inspiration, genre/background research, comps, etc. Would welcome any suggestions of texts (any genre/discipline) pertaining to Antigone, death & resurrection, Welsh and Cornish myth and folklore, ecology & environmental crisis, and the Gothic.

Novità (ma non solo...)

Il vostro affezionato staff delle Biblioteche di Milano vi imbandisce un piccolo antipasto letterario, prima delle pantagrueliche proposte natalizie.

Di Geoffrey Holiday Hall si sa soltanto che fu giornalista e scrittore. Elogiato da Leonardo Sciascia che lesse La fine è nota nel 1952, pubblicò solo due gialli e poi scomparve praticamente nel nulla. La fine è nota (uscito per la prima volta in Italia con il titolo La morte alla finestra) fu premiato in Francia nel 1953 come miglior poliziesco in lingua non francese. Il titolo originale (The end is known) deriva dal Giulio Cesare di Shakespeare: “Oh, se fosse dato all’uomo di conoscere la fine di questo giorno che incombe! Ma basta solo che il giorno trascorra e la sua fine è nota”. Un giallo di classe, strutturato come un viaggio a ritroso nella vita del protagonista di cui si ricostruisce la storia passo per passo, testimonianza per testimonianza, come un misterioso puzzle che si completa, ovviamente, solo nel finale. Molto godibile è anche il secondo titolo Qualcuno alla porta, dai toni più leggeri, nonostante gli omicidi e l’atmosfera della Vienna sotto l’occupazione sovietica nel secondo dopoguerra che non ricorda neppure lontanamente gli splendori dell’impero asburgico. “Sembra uno di quei soggetti che piacevano a Hitchcock (e non è detto che il pressoché ignoto Holiday Hall, scrivendo Qualcuno alla porta, non avesse in mente le figure di James Stewart e Doris Day, o di Cary Grant e Grace Kelly)”. La frizzante coppia americana che si trova, suo malgrado, a gestire le indagini ricorda anche il duo Tommy e Tuppence di Agatha Christie. Doppio colpo di scena sul finale: cosa chiedere di più a un libro giallo?

Ha un solo difetto Un volto nella folla di Budd Schulberg: è troppo breve. Parliamo ancora dell’autore di Perché corre Sammy? e I disincantati per questo racconto appena uscito e finora inedito in Italia, da cui Elia Kazan trasse il film omonimo con protagonista Andy Griffith (l’indimenticabile avvocato Matlock della fortunata serie televisiva, per intenderci). Il tema, fin troppo attuale, è quello della manipolazione del pensiero e dei comportamenti (e quindi del voto) delle masse da parte dei personaggi dello spettacolo: in questo caso si tratta di un finto sempliciotto proveniente da un paesino dell’Arkansas che, in virtù della sua sconcertante capacità di coinvolgimento, diventa il paradigma dell’America intera. Grazie alle sue canzoni folk, a vecchi luoghi comuni sulle tradizioni popolari e a un indubbio carisma, il nostro eroe riesce a condizionare il pubblico e ad arricchirsi con i lauti proventi della pubblicità. Cambia il tema negli altri due racconti della raccolta: i ‘dietro le quinte’ del mondo del cinema in Questa è Hollywood, che l’autore, sceneggiatore e figlio di un tycoon della Paramount, non solo conosceva bene, ma sapeva anche descrivere con agile penna, e L’imbonitore, sul mondo della boxe. Ricordiamo che per la sceneggiatura di Fronte del porto (che è anche un romanzo), celebre film con Marlon Brando, Schulberg si aggiudicò l’Oscar nel 1954.

Per la serie i grandi classici hanno sempre qualcosa da dire è stato ripubblicato da Mondadori e da Sellerio Brighton Rock di Graham Greene. Una lettura da consigliare sotto tutti i punti di vista: un giallo ben costruito con protagonisti tratti sia dalla malavita, sia dal caso che fa di un personaggio del tutto inaspettato un accanito segugio alla ricerca del colpevole, come fosse Porfirij Petrovic che insegue Raskolnikov o Javert che perseguita Jean Valjean, ma con uno spirito diverso, fresco e originale. “Nello specchio inclinato sopra il lavabo si poteva vedere riflesso, ma gli occhi si distolsero rapidamente da quell’immagine di guance livide e mal rasate, di capelli lisci e occhi da vecchio. Non lo interessava. Era troppo orgoglioso per preoccuparsi del suo aspetto”.

Nuova ristampa anche per Le vittime di Norwich (1935) uno dei gialli più famosi (insieme a The House of Dr. Edwardes che ispirò il film Io ti salverò diretto da Alfred Hitchcock) fra i 31 composti dalla coppia britannica John Leslie Palmer e Hilary Aidan St. George Saunders sotto lo pseudonimo di Francis Beeding.

Da La regina degli scacchi di Walter Tevis, lo scrittore di Lo spaccone e Il colore dei soldi, è stata tratta una miniserie televisiva di grande successo. Accade spesso che i geni abbiano avuto una vita difficile, siano dei disadattati, spesso asociali, in perenne conflitto con se stessi, il prossimo e il mondo che li circonda. È anche questo il caso della protagonista, la piccola Beth, cresciuta in orfanotrofio, che trova una riscossa alla sua grigia esistenza grazie alla passione per la scacchiera. Una curiosità sul ‘caso letterario’ di Tevis: dopo il successo dei primi libri, fu dimenticato anche a causa dei problemi con l’alcol. Quando decise di riprendere a scrivere, lo fece seguendo un corso di scrittura all’Università dove fu riconosciuto dal poeta Donald Justice che, stupito, gli chiese cosa ci facesse un grande autore come lui in mezzo agli studenti, quando avrebbe invece dovuto salire in cattedra. Breve fu purtroppo la sua seconda stagione creativa: Tevis morì a soli 56 anni per un tumore.

Il voyeurismo è il tema principale dell’ultimo romanzo di Simenon pubblicato da Adelphi, Delitto impunito: composto nel 1953 durante il soggiorno dello scrittore a Lakeville nel Connecticut, fu edito l’anno successivo in volume e a puntate sul settimanale «Les Nouvelles littéraires». Il secondo tema del libro è l’invidia, quella di chi non ha nulla, né bellezza né fascino nè denaro ed è stato defraudato perfino dell’affetto dei genitori, nei confronti di chi invece ha tutto questo e ne mena vanto, e gode nell’esibirlo senza ritegno. Una lotta accanita tra due personalità, che è la lotta atavica tra gli uomini per la supremazia. “A Élie non era mai successo di trovarsi davanti un uomo completamente felice, felice in tutto e per tutto, sempre e comunque, in ogni momento della giornata, e che approfittava con candore di tutto quel che lo circondava per accrescere il proprio piacere”.

Una nuova indagine per l’improbabile detective di Partanna Giovà, metronotte per caso, coinvolto in un duplice omicidio di stampo mafioso insieme a tutta la scombinata famiglia Di Dio. Sarà ancora una volta l’anziana madre, autentica virago arroccata alle salde tradizioni popolari e armata di un cervello dalla logica “acuminata”, ad avviare le indagini verso l’inevitabile conclusione. Ma cos’è La boffa allo scecco? Questo, almeno, ve lo possiamo svelare: si tratta di un gesto simil-apotropaico (in realtà un autentico sopruso) che a tutti è occorso di subire almeno una volta nella vita, ovvero lo schiaffo di rimando, come sfogo per un’ingiustizia patita che non si è in grado di vendicare altrimenti. Roberto Alajmo non delude le aspettative.

Per quanto riguarda Sarà assente l’autore di Giampaolo Simi, si può dire che, se esiste una sana via di mezzo tra assecondare a priori i gusti dei lettori meno esigenti e scrivere in modo che solo l’autore possa comprendere i propri contenuti, Simi l’ha sicuramente trovata e ce la propone in queste succulente paginette. Dedicato a chi ha la voglia, la necessità, l’urgenza di ridere a crepapelle.

Nell’ultimo nato della serie del BarLume di Marco Malvaldi, La morra cinese, gli inossidabili vecchietti sono alle prese con l’omicidio niente di meno che di un giovane filologo romanzo alle prese con un carteggio appartenente alla famiglia di un nobile “arci-decaduto” del luogo, in cui, pare, compariva addirittura un’epistola inedita di Giacomo Leopardi. Ma questo non è l’unico movente per un delitto che non resterà a lungo irrisolto.

5 Essential Acting Techniques Every Actor in the New York City Casting Agencies Should Know

The work of an actor is frequently unclear and intangible, which is why, over time, performers and directors have created varied approaches to parts. These acting skills serve two purposes: They make it simpler to describe the mechanics of acting, while also providing performers with an arsenal of skills to utilize when taking on a character. Here are the five key acting methods that every actor should be familiar with.

1. Stanislavski’s System Technique

Developed by Constantin Stanislavski between 1911 and 1916, this approach employs emotional memory, physical acts, and self-analysis to elicit a character's feelings on stage. Stanislavski's work influenced early twentieth-century acting and paved the path for new approaches. Lord Laurence Olivier and Sir John Gielgud are two well-known actors from the twentieth century who based their careers on the Stanislavski method.

Lord Laurence Olivier, Sir John Gielgud, Ellen Burstyn, and Marilyn Monroe have all employed this approach.

2. The Strasburg Method Technique

Lee Strasburg developed Stanislavski's approach by basing his character's experiences on his own life. Strasburg thought that feeling the emotions that a character would have to depict would enhance the performance and the actor's attachment to the part. This is now known as Method acting.

Strasburg coached James Dean, Alec Baldwin, and Marilyn Monroe, among others, and his style is popular with Angelina Jolie, Scarlett Johansson, and others.

3. Meisner Technique

This acting approach was invented by Sandford Meisner, a colleague of Lee Strasberg, and it is also inspired by the Stanislavski method. The idea is to get rid of any inclination and instead rely on instinct so that you can be more present and at the moment on stage.

The Meisner approach emphasizes improvisation exercises and the use of imagination to elicit emotion rather than memory.

The Meisner method is used by Diane Keaton, Jack Nicholson, Allison Janney, and Anthony Hopkins.

4. Method Acting Technique

The Stanislavski approach influenced Lee Strasberg's Method Acting technique, which is still widely used today. Once again, the goal is to make the performance as emotionally believable as possible. In this, actors are taught how to recollect powerful feelings from their past using their own experiences.

It is a common misperception that this acting approach causes staying in character both on and off-screen or on stage.

This acting method has been used by Daniel Day-Lewis, Christian Bale, Robert Di Niro, and Marlon Brando.

5. Stella Adler’s Technique

Stella Adler was an American actress in the period of Strasburg and Stanislavski, but their intensity put her off. Adler modified the two previous strategies to incorporate an important focus on imagination to better her acting without concentrating on prior experiences.

Adler trained Marlon Brando, Robert DeNiro, Benicio Del Toro, Mark Ruffalo, and Melanie Griffith.

Conclusion

This collection of approaches will provide you with the vocabulary to exist in a room of fellow actors and communicate by performing. While this is only a quick introduction, we hope you now know where to begin and what skills to build.

RE: end-of-year book ask: 2, 3, 4, 6, 19, 25

Did you reread anything? What?

I'm a chronic rereader, so yes. I reread In the Woods (Tana French), The Likeness (Tana French), The Bloody Chamber (Angela Carter), Ballad (Maggie Stiefvater), Arcadia (Tom Stoppard), Flyaway (Kathleen Jennings), The Master Letters (Lucie Brock-Broido), Mr. Fox (Helen Oyeyemi), The Scorpio Races (Maggie Stiefvater), and Midnight Riot (Ben Aaronovitch). This is honestly a pretty low number of rereads for me—I read a lot of new stuff this year and didn’t reread as much as I sometimes do.

What were your top five books of the year?

You’re getting six, sorry!

Bring Up the Bodies (Hilary Mantel)

Menewood (Nicola Griffith)

My Cousin Rachel (Daphne Du Maurier)

The Vaster Wilds (Lauren Groff)

The Citadel of The Autarch (Gene Wolfe)

Chain-Gang All-Stars (Nana Kwame Adjei-Brenyah)

Was there anything you meant to read, but never got to?

So much. Ways of Seeing (John Berger), The Essex Serpent (Sarah Perry), The Memory Theater (Karin Tidbeck), Freshwater (Akweke Emezi), The Bluest Eye (Toni Morrison), Beloved (Toni Morrison), The Chandelier (Clarice Lispector), Trust (Hernan Diaz), and Black Leopard, Red Wolf (Marlon James) are all things I wanted to get to at some point but haven’t yet.

Did you use your library?

Yes, but not as much as I should, and I’m terrible about returning things on time.

What reading goals do you have for next year?

Read more widely and diversely!

Adult Queer Fantasy that I know specifically feature on-page boning: Siren Queen by Nghi Vo (please read anything & everything by Nghi Vo) A Marvellous Light by Freya Marske A Taste of Gold and Iron by Alexandra Rowland She Who Became the Sun by Shelly Parker-Chan The Mercenary Librarians series by Kit Rocha (dystopian) KJ Charles' Magpie Lord series

Not fantasy but you should still read them: Manhunt by Gretchen Felker-Martin (horror, trans cast, firmly anti-TERF) Light From Uncommon Stars by Ryka Aoki (science-fantasy, objectively a perfect novel) Summer Sons by Lee Mandelo (horror, gay yearning) The Seep by Chana Porter Genesis of Misery by Neon Yang (sci-fi Joan of Arc) Everything by Becky Chambers Everything by Rivers Solomon Arkady Martine's A Memory Called Empire

ALSO: author K.A. Doore keeps a running list of queer adult SFF published every year. I highly recommend going through those archives, which you can find here: https://kadoore.com/2022/05/23/2022-queer-adult-science-fiction-fantasy-books/

Tl;dr: SFF is extremely gay, almost everyone writing contemporary SFF is queer in some way, we are truly blessed and I don't want to hear anyone complaining about not being able to find stuff ever again, I love you all.
