The Strange Recital is an audio anthology of short fiction. It is not genre-specific and delights in perceptions of reality that warp and fold in unexpected ways. The literary works we showcase might be odd, humorous, or surreal.... They might remind you of Borges, Nabokov, Kafka, Pynchon. Or none of the above.
Each podcast episode features one writer and runs about 25 minutes. It includes a story reading – the Recital – a brief musical interlude, and an author interview with a twist – the Post Recital. Subscribe to get a new episode twice a month. It's free.
"It was last spring, early, when I fell in love with the ferret
woman. The first beautiful day, exquisite whirlybird of a sunny
blue day, and I’m in the park, lying on the lawn."
Where does obsession come from? Why do people have pet
ferrets? And shouldn't somebody warn the boyfriend?
