Lisää Love & Its Discontents
Love & Its Discontents is a podcast on the topic of LOVE and LOVE STORIES. Starting with Jeffrey Eugenides's claim, in My Mistress Sparrow is Dead, “Love stories, nearly without exception, give love a bad name,” the podcast will take you on a journey through literature from antiquity to contemporary stories, wrestling with notions such as romantic love and altruism, deep diving into ecstatic love and solidarity. It asks, Can love be examined like an object? What on earth is love? Where in the world is love? Are we born to love, born with a natural sense of certain things like goodness, and beauty? Is love, like Rumi said, perfect thirst? But most importantly it will follow the question: can there be love without love stories? The host, Adnan Mahmutović is a Bosnian-Swedish writer and lecturer in English literature and creative writing at Stockholm University.

Join me for a deep conversation on love in times and aftermath of traumatic historical events. How do our history and heritage make us and how do they shape the way we love? Focusing on the unique work of poetic theater, A Short History of Anger, about the genocide in Smyrna and the massive movements of peoples across borders of modern Turkey and Greece, we dig into things that help us live meaningful lives, overcome traumas and define love in ways that are healing. Joy Manesiotis is the author of three collections of poems, A Short History of Anger, which won The New Measure Poetry Prize, Revoke, and They Sing to Her Bones, which won the New Issues Poetry Prize. Currently, she is staging A Short History of Anger: A Hybrid Work of Poetry & Theatre at international festivals and universities in the U.S. and Europe. Poems and essays have appeared in numerous literary journals and anthologies, including The American Poetry Review, Poetry, and Poetry International, as well as in translation. Previously the Edith R. White Distinguished Chair in Creative Writing at the University of Redlands, she teaches in the MFA in Writing program at OSU/Cascades and serves on the editorial board of Airlie Press.
