Ami Bouhassane, grand-daughter of photographer Lee Miller and Surrealist artist Roland Penrose presents, reads and shares their love letters, with guest speakers that contextualise the letters' content.
In the pre-digital age, before email and cell/mobiile phones, letters carried an importance that few who were not part of those times will understand.
The words on the pages of a love letter carry the nuances and emotions of love and desire, passion and anger in a deeply confidential way.
The urgency and the intimacy of the writers can be clearly felt in this collection of letters between Lee Miller, Photographer, and Roland Penrose, Surrealist Artist as they conduct their long-distance romance.
It begins with their meeting in Paris in 1937 and runs to 1939 when Lee Miller left her Egyptian husband Aziz Eloui Bey in Cairo and joined Roland Penrose in London at the start of World War 2. In this real-life romantic drama, the period and their connections give us a supporting cast that includes Dora Maar and Picasso, Nusch and Paul Eluard, Leonora Carrington and Max Ernst, Ady Fidelin and Man Ray.
These nearly three hundred pages of love letters show that as the relationship grew it produced and supported some of the world’s best loved art and photography. These have only been read by a handful of people since they were first written.
Guest Speakers: Antony Penrose (son of Lee Miller and Roland Penrose and Co-Director of Lee Miller Archives), Hilary Roberts (Independent Curator, formerly senior curator of photography at Imperial War Museums, London), Hussein Omar (lecturer on Modern global history, University college Dublin) and Sam Bourdouil

All About Agatha is a podcast all about, well, Agatha. Agatha Christie, of course: the Queen of Crime, a real-life Dame of the British Empire, and author of sixty-six mystery novels that spanned the Twentieth Century, defining a genre. For five years, Catherine Brobeck and Kemper Donovan revisited these novels in publication order, ranking them according to pre-set criteria (plot, character, etc.). Tragically, Catherine Brobeck passed away at the end of 2021. Since then, Kemper has completed the podcast's ranking project, and now contents himself with celebrating the greatness of Christie by attempting to solve the ultimate mystery where she is concerned. Why Christie--and Christie alone--endures as powerfully as she does.

Har du lyst til å dele noe du har lært, eller noe du er interessert i med andre? Være en som inspirerer, en som blir intervjuet, som holder foredrag og som lever av det du liker best å drive med? Da er det smart å skrive en sakprosabok. En bok som kan hjelpe og inspirere andre – samtidig som den skaper nye muligheter for deg som forfatter.
I denne podcasten lærer du hvordan du kan finne ditt budskap, hvordan du skriver en bok om det og hvordan du kan bruke den boken til å skape akkurat det livet du drømmer om.
Å skrive en sakprosabok vil gi deg en solid plattform for alt annet gøy du har lyst til å drive med. Perfekt for deg som er en coach, leder eller gründer. Og for deg som har store mål, eller som drømmer om å jobbe med noe du er genuint interessert i.
Podcasten ledes av forfatter, gründer og forlegger Tina Holt. Og det handler om alt fra budskap, bøker og business til selvutvikling, spiritualitet og sunn livsstil. Å skrive en bok kan endre livet ditt. Her får du vite hvordan du kan gjøre det på en effektiv og inspirerende måte.

Forfatter Ida Jackson og forfatter Jan Grue er gift og kollegaer. I denne podcasten snakker de om skriving og litteratur, men også om alt de leser om: Politikk, historie, fag, besettelser - og ikke minst: Om alt de er uenige om. Tenk på dette som et artig middagsselskap der alle krangler - samtidig som de liker hverandre, kombinert med en forelesning på Blindern der alle er litt brisne.
Idas besettelser: Matlagning og sosiale medier.
Jans besettelser: Film og amerikansk politikk.
Felles besettelser: Litteratur, filosofi, kropp, kunst.
Store forskjeller: Jan er ateist, Ida er troende, Jan er akademiker, Ida er influenser.
Å lytte til denne podcasten er som å henge på kjøkkenet med oss mens vi lager middag - og noen ganger har vi gjester, også! -
