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.
"My car, with the drug in the boot, was tucked behind the rural
filling station. Still hot and smoking, the machine had suffered
catastrophic failure...."
A man alone faces himself and his history, with a little
chemical assistance. But what is now and what is cruel flashback?
Hallucination, madness, or reality? Does it matter?
