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 beginning, sometimes I left messages in the
street. Somebody is living in the Louvre, certain of the
messages would say. Or in the National Gallery. Naturally they
could only say that when I was in Paris or in London."
A woman's lone voice speaks to us from a house on a remote
beach. Is she mad, or is she really the only person left on
earth?
