概要

 Author Jay Ruud has read every ”100 Best Book” list there is, so it’s only natural that he would create his own. Listen to each episode as he and his wife, author Stacey Margaret Jones discuss a book from his carefully cultivated ”100 Lovable Books” list. Stacey interviews Jay on what makes the book ”lovable” and where it ranks on the master list. They’ll also discuss current books in the CHAOS READER segment.Copyright 2024 All rights reserved. アート 文学史・文学批評

    I want, I want, I want… to read Henderson the Rain King

Henderson’s mid-life crisis and the resulting international journey leads to a greater exploration of his own inner self.

  • That Epic Book By That One New Jersey Guy

    That Epic Book By That One New Jersey Guy
    2026/01/27

    Jay’s lovable novel this episode is AMERICAN PASTORAL by Philip Roth, in which the hero, Seymour “Swede” Levov, struggles to understand his life in late 20th century America, and how the 1960s still reach into his family to trouble and unsettle him and those he loves. Chaos Reader introduces a new book she’s just picked up, one of Trollope’s Victorian-era Palliser novels, to fulfill her goal of having a long-book reading year.

    NOTE: Jay erred when he called Swede’s wife, “Donna.” Her name in the novel is “Dawn.”

    Postmodern Suspense in The Crying of Lot 49
    2026/01/20

    Jay makes his case that The Crying of Lot 49 is the most lovable of Thomas Pynchon’s novels as he dives into the plot of the 1966 conspiracy-theory, suspenseful novel. (It’s also Pynchon’s shortest novel.) Chaos Reader checks in on the progress she’s making in Kawabata’s The Sound of the Mountain.
