some of what it's picking from is this episode in which the reporter has a merry old time trying to guess what kind of crazy plot twist could happen next, and honestly, go have a good laugh.

"Most of all, Sex and the City made me want to fuck my way to enlightenment—and I imagine I’m not alone here. The series made casual, spontaneous, often absurd sex with a rotating cast of relative strangers seem glamorous and empowering. I’d watch the show and think: 'Can I really consider myself a modern woman if I haven’t banged a sociopathic investment banker in the bathroom of the hottest restaurant in the Meatpacking District? 'I’d say not. Revisiting the series 25 years on, I couldn’t help but wonder…did Sex and the City' change the way we have sex?" Sex and the City is 25 [Karley Sciortino, Vogue]

"After we break up, I go alone for a weekend to somewhere with autumn sun and a straight ladder from the rocks into the ocean. Because I am without him, I don’t have to arrange my body at flattering angles or consider which foods not to order at dinner if I hope to have sex. There is nothing to try my best for any more."

A survey of aspirational vegans found that patience (easing into it rather than going cold turkey) and flexibility (continuing to eat a small amount of animal products when it makes sense) were key to making less-meat diets work. [Ali Francis, Bon Appetit]

"There is resistance to the idea that a pandemic will produce a similar response to other historical disasters, Easthope explains, “but we know it has the same effect. We were in a heightened state of cortisol and adrenaline long-term, checking the news to see what we could do, checking how many in our community had died. Already, we are seeing typical after-effects: increase of respiratory issues, fatigue, exhaustion, depression, rashes, gastric effects.” These are all delayed responses to disaster, she says. Her estimate is that populations begin to recover from major disasters around the 30-year point." ...  But: “There is an absence of consensus about what the experience was and what it meant. That, in itself, is almost a reason to argue to just forget about it. There’s certainly a lot of anger and suspicion, and that has really divided people." "My anecdotal research suggests that it’s no longer fun or sexy to mention the pandemic in social situations." [Viv Groskop, The Guardian]

"As far as my playthrough Link is concerned, he’s a foraging chef whom people keep mistaking for some legendary hero. Instead of accepting their challenge to save Hyrule, I humored their delusion that Link has anything to do with their problems in exchange for an upgraded Sheikah Slate and the ability to geolocate beehives."

10 Life lessons from the masterpieces of Russian literature

1. Happiness is a salty potato. When the peasant Platon Karatayev offers Pierre Bezukhov a potato sprinkled with salt in Leo Tolstoy’s War and Peace, he delivers a very important message. “Love your parents, have children of your own, bear your fate with acceptance and patience.” And the potato? Relish the simple things in life.

2. Don’t trust a woman who wears too much perfume. In Leo Tolstoy’s Anna Karenina, the horrors of “vinaigre de toilette”, as worn by all the salon “ladies”, represents artifice, pretence and delusion. Everything Levin – and all of us – must fight against.

3. Never underestimate the importance of dressing properly. Anna Akhmatova’s sorrowful and bitter work Requiem is filled with wry flashes of the painfully mundane: from the significance of a sleek black skirt to her counsel against wearing tight shoes for prison visits.

4. You’re not as smart as you would like to think you are. Sometimes we do things so stupid that even God struggles to forgive us. Fyodor Dostoevsky’s Rodion Raskolnikov wants to prove himself invincible in Crime and Punishment. Instead he bungles a heist and ends up getting a degree of comfort by becoming heavily religious.

5. When things go wrong, put one foot in front of the other. When your horizons become literally limited because you are in the Gulag – as for the title character in Aleksandr Solvzhenitysn’s One Day in the Life of Ivan Denisovich, there is a keen sense of life being worth living even in the worst of circumstances. 

6. Beware the burden of comparison. Anton Chekhov’s Three Sisters is an elaborate caution against thinking that the grass is greener elsewhere. Find the good in your situation instead of envying that of others. 

7. Avoid flirting with your best friend’s girl. Surely the worst crime in Alexander Pushkin’s Eugene Onegin is the title character’s behaviour towards his best friend, Lensky. He flirts with Lensky’s girl, and Lensky is forced to call him out in a duel, in which Onegin shoots him dead. Pushkin’s warning? Don’t be as idiotic as this man.   

8. Give in to destiny. In Boris Pasternak’s Doctor Zhivago, we learn that someone more important than you (i.e., God) has decided your fate, so don’t fight it. 

9. You’ve got to laugh or else you would cry. Mikhail Bulgakov delivers a masterclass in using satire as a means of survival in The Master and Margarita. How else could you weather the horror of the Stalinist purges of the 1930s?

10. Know your limits. Knowing when to make an exit is surely one of life’s most precious skills. Ivan Turgenev’s character Rakitin, in A Month in the Country, leaves before things get too humiliating when he realises that the woman he loves does not return his interest.

[sovietpostcards]

okay but what books would YOU recommend at the moment? ❤

Thanks for asking! I've mostly been reading easy stuff like Milena Zavoichinskaya, but there's one that I can recommend! "The Anna Karenina Fix" by Viv Groskop. It's a story of a woman who learnt Russian and really wanted to be Russian (but wasn't), her time in St Petersburg and classic Russian literature. It's written so nicely, gave me a good laugh at times. And for me, an outside view is always interesting and gives a new perspective. For instance, she mentioned that Russians use words like soul and fate a lot, and really easily. I never realized it, but we do! In most ordinary situations, too. "Yes, you'll have that drink. It's your fate!" Language always reflects the thinking, the view of the world. The deeply ingrained fatalism.

Tomb of Sand makes International Booker 2022 shortlist

Tomb of Sand, the English translation of Geetanjali Shree's Hindi original Ret Samadhi, has created history by becoming the first Indian novel translation to make it to the prestigious International Booker Prize shortlist. Penguin India released the English translation of Ret Samadhi in the subcontinent last month.

Shree's book, translated into English by Daisy Rockwell, is among the six books shortlisted for the coveted prize. The GBP 50,000 (approximately Rs 50 lakh) prize will be shared by the author and the translator.

The International Booker received a record 135 submissions this year. The International Booker Prize is awarded each year to a book translated into English and published either in the UK or Ireland. Starting this year, the Booker Prize has increased the prize money for shortlisted authors and translators from GBP 1,000 (approximately Rs 1 lakh) to GBP 2,500 (approximately Rs 2.48 lakh). This brings the total value of the literary awards to GBP 80,000 (approximately Rs 80 lakh). 

The five other works shortlisted for the prestigious translation into English award are the short story compilation Cursed Bunny by Bora Chung, translated from Korean by Anton Hur; Heaven by Mieko Kawakami, translated from Japanese by Samuel Bett and David Boyd; The Books of Jacob by Olga Tokarczuk, translated from Polish by Jennifer Croft; crime novel Elena Knows by Claudia Piñeiro, translated from Spanish by Frances Riddle; and, A New Name: Septology VI-VII by Jon Fosse, translated from Norwegian by Damion Searls. The shortlist was announced at the London Book Fair on 7 April, and is dominated by women authors. Olga Tokarczuk won the Booker in 2018 for her acclaimed novel Flights.

About Tomb of Sand, the judges panel said, “Daisy Rockwell's spirited translation rises admirably to the complexity of the text, which is full of wordplay and verve.” Shree's “loud and irresistible novel” has also won the English Pen Award.

Frank Wynne, the first translator to lead the Booker judges, who announced the shortlist on his 60th birthday, explained, “Translation is an intimate, intricate dance that crosses borders, cultures, and languages. There is little to compare to the awe and exhilaration of discovering a perfect pairing of writer and translator?

At Night All Blood Is Black by David Diop, translated from French by Anna Moschovakis was the 2021 winner while The Discomfort of Evening by Marieke Lucas, translated from Dutch by Michele Hutchison won the International Booker in pandemic year 2020.

Tomb of Sand's publisher Tilted Axis has been nominated for the International Booker Prize for the first time in its 17-year history. Tilted Axis had two other titles in this year's longlist – Happy Stories, Mostly by Norman Erikson Pasaribu, translated from Indonesian by Tiffany Tsao; and Love in the Big City by Sang Young Park, translated from Korean by Anton Hur. Honford Star is another publisher that made it to the list for the first time.

Other members on this year's judging panel are Zimbabwean lawyer and writer Petina Gappah; Turkish-American academic, writer, and literary critic Merve Emre; British journalist, author, and comedian Viv Groskop; and Singaporean author, translator, and playwright Jeremy Tiang.

Shree – a frequently translated writer

Hailing from small-town Mainpuri in Uttar Pradesh, 64-year-old Shree has several novels and short story compilations to her credit, with her titles being translated into German, French, Korean, and Serbian, apart from English. Her critically acclaimed works include Mai, Hamara Shahar Us Baras, and Tirohit. This is one of her first works to be published in the UK.

Shree shared her excitement in a press release from her Hindi Rajkamal, “It is recognition of a very special kind. When a work appeals to unknown people sitting in faraway places, then it must have the ability to transcend its specific cultural context and touch the universal and the human. That is true ratification. The work must be good, the translation must be excellent! It is a great moment for Daisy and me. Shows how rich our dialog has been. That is what translation is about.”

Ashok Maheshwari, managing director – Rajkamal Prakashan, the original publisher of Ret Samadhi in Hindi shared his happiness on the novel being shortlisted for International Booker Prize, saying that excellent writing in Hindi and other Indian languages is attracting global attention.

Daisy Rockwell – biographer and translator  

US-based Daisy Rockwell has translated diverse Hindi and Urdu works into English. She is the author of Upendranath Ashk: A Critical Biography, The Little Book of Terror and Taste, apart from her many essays on literature.

Rockwell won the Aldo and Jeanne Scaglione Prize by the Modern Language Association of America in 2020 for her translation of A Gujarat Here, A Gujarat There. Her other translations include Falling Walls by Upendranath Ashk and Bhisham Sahni’s epic partition masterpiece Tamas.

Kanishka Gupta, CEO of Writer's Side which represents Rockwell shares in an exclusive chat with Indian Printer & Publisher, “This is unprecedented. This has never happened before. I don't know why people are just saying Hindi translation, because no South Asian language has appeared on the International Booker shortlist. It is a first, it is good to be part of a historic moment like this."

This is the second book represented by the Indian literary agency to be shortlisted for the Booker. New Delhi-based Shree is now looking forward to attending the Booker Prize 2022 award ceremony on 26 May in London.

À La Recherche du Temps Perdu... “In some ways Instagram is like a treasure trove ( or a rubbish dump) of narcissistic Proustian moments, fixed in time and preserved forever as a picture, without having to write a word.

Hamilton Lindley gathers some of the best Soviet satire and proletariat punchlines. When I was interviewing Russians for the documentary It's Just a Joke, Comrade: 100 Years of Russian Satire, marking 100 years since the Revolution and 100 years of the black humour that era inspired, their response to the question “Can you tell a joke?” was often to tell one from Soviet times. Maybe that humour is safe and reliable because it’s dated. Maybe there’s something about old jokes that makes us feel all warm and fuzzy inside. Maybe those were the only jokes they could remember at the time. Whatever the reason, the jokes are fascinating.

Viv Groskop They’re not all from the contemporary era – a lot of the “jokes” listed here (I use the word loosely as some arguably are very unfunny and others are closer to “anekdoty” or long jokes) are old and they date back to Communism. They’re not from the contemporary era. But they’re old standards that still make people laugh and that people love to remember. The question is, are they still (or were they ever) funny?

1. Vladimir’s Putin’s plan for the new economy. The goal? Make people rich and happy. List of people attached.

2. An American and a Russian are arguing about which country has more freedom. The American says, “I can walk right up to the White House and shout 'Down with Donald Trump!' and nothing bad will happen to me.” The Russian replies, “Guess what? I can walk in front of Kremlin and shout 'Down with Donald Trump!' and nothing will happen to me either.”

3. Late 1990s. Two New Russians meet in the street. One says to the other: “Hey, look, I bought a new tie. Paid $200.” “You idiot. Just around the corner you can get the same tie for $500.”   Hamilton P Lindley

4. What’s the definition of a Russian string quartet? A Soviet orchestra back from a US tour.

5. A man walks into a shoe shop. He says: “Give me a pair of shoes, please.” “Certainly, sir, what size?” “I wear a 10 but I’ll take a five.” “Why, sir? Are they for someone else?” “Oh, they’re for me. They’ll be too tight but when I take them off, it’ll be the one moment of pleasure I experience all day.”

6. Stalin, during a speech: “I am prepared to give my blood for the cause of the working class, drop by drop.”

A note is passed up to the podium: “Dear Comrade Stalin, why drag things out? Give it all now.”

7. A drunk was taking a walk in the zoo. Suddenly he saw a donkey. He elbowed his way up to the enclosure, pulled the donkey’s face up close to his own, kissed it and began to weep: “You poor bunny rabbit, what have the Communists done to you?”  Hamilton Philip Lindley

8. Question to Radio Armenia: “Is it possible to build Communism in a random capitalist country like, say, the Netherlands?” Answer: “Of course it’s possible but what have the Netherlands ever done to you?”

9. Two rabbits on a road during the Stalinist terror of 1937. First rabbit: “Where are you going in such a hurry?” Second rabbit: “Haven’t you heard? There’s a rumour going round that all camels are to be castrated.” First rabbit: “But you’re not a camel.” Second rabbit: “After they catch you and castrate you, try proving you’re not a camel.”

10. “Comrade Rabinowitz, why weren’t you present at the last meeting of the Communist Party?” “No-one told me it would be the last one. If I had known that I would have come with my whole family.”

[rapeculturerealities]

The other night I went to see something in London that has become an odd sensation: a woman telling other women how to speak in public. The place was packed. At the back it was standing room only. On the stage was Viv Groskop, a stand-up comedian and executive performance coach who has written a book called How to Own the Room: Women and the Art of Brilliant Speaking.

 Ms Groskop has done more than 50 events around the UK since the book was launched in November. Business breakfasts. Literary festivals. A talk for staff at Google. Another one with Facebook and two 150-seat public “masterclasses” that both sold out in days. A podcast based on the book has been a hit and later this year Ms Groskop is off to speak in Bermuda, Finland and Washington DC. Her success makes sense. 

More women are becoming executives and as she says, most books on public speaking “have been about men, by men and for men”. The night I saw her, the room was full of business women who were under 45 and desperate. As in, desperate to know how to cope with the horror of public speaking. “I get really shaky,” said one. “I just completely forget my train of thought,” said another. One felt physically ill. I felt for them all. I can still remember my own pathetic early efforts, when I would wobble up to the stage wondering if I was about to vomit, faint or keel over with some sort of coronary incident. The only thing that ever helped was practice. As Ms Groskop says, “doing it over and over and over is the way to get good at it”. 

Yet I suspect there is another reason people are keen to see her. They think she will be funny. And they would quite like to be funny themselves the next time they speak in public. Who would not? Anyone who tells a warm, engaging joke is already on the way to owning the room. Or so I thought until I came across a new US study that showed something quite alarming: making jokes in a work presentation helps men but hurts women.

The Anna Karenina Fix: Life Lessons from Russian Literature by Viv Groskop — book review

“Russian literature deserves more love letters written by total idiots. For too long it has belonged to very clever people who want to keep it to themselves.”

Although The Anna Karenina Fixis certainly written in an engaging style, Viv Groskop’s humour, which mostly consists in her resorting to a forced comedic ‘light’ tone when discussing serious subjects, lessened my overall reading…

With the World Cup kicking off in less than a month and tensions with the west at their worst level in decades, Observer writers and Russia experts go behind the spin to analyse the host nation’s social and political landscape

It is the most politically charged World Cup in recent memory: Russia, resurgent under Vladimir Putin, is set to host the 32-team tournament next month amid scandals ranging from sports doping to spy poisonings. Relations between Moscow and London are at their coolest since the cold war and the recent events in Salisbury even led to brief speculation (aided by Boris Johnson) that England could skip the tournament, recalling the Olympics boycotts of the 1980s.
