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.
"The initial sight of the living room was always a

ephemera and objects were stacked in overflowing boxes that lined
the perimeter of the room...."
What changes inside you when a loved one disappears?
Do you become a different person? Maybe this novel is all a
metaphor.
