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.
"In the bed the writer had a dream that was not a dream. As he
grew somewhat sleepy but was still conscious, figures began to
appear before his eyes. He imagined the young indescribable thing
within himself was driving a long procession of figures before his
eyes."
What happens to you when you take a truth to be your own? Can
you be saved by the young thing inside you?
