The Pearls by Will Heinrich

18m · Published 19 Oct 03:20
This week we have a guest essay, a chapter from Will Heinrich’s novel The Pearls.
The book follows Henry Corn, a soda jerk and occasional pickpocket in 1920s New York City, as he bounces between two love interests: Dot Cohen, a no-nonsense Coney Island barmaid, and Marion Hammer, the daughter of fabulously wealthy banker Felix Hammer. In this chapter ("The Color of the Sky"), which takes place shortly after an extreme night out, Felix invites Henry to the Hammer Building for the first time.
Will Heinrich was born in New York and spent his early childhood in Japan. His novel The King's Evil, published by Scribner in 2003, won a PEN/Robert Bingham Fellowship in 2004; his most recent novel, The Pearls, was published by Elective Affinity in 2019. He has been an art critic for the New Yorker, the New York Observer, Hyperallergic, Art in America and, since 2017, the New York Times.
The Pearls is only available as a signed and numbered limited edition directly from Elective Affinity. An audiobook of the Pearls is available now on Apple Music.

My Father the Teenager

17m · Published 05 Oct 03:55
Episode 20: My Father the Teenager
I’d heard of old people becoming babies but not of them becoming teenagers en route.
"His living room was like a teenager’s bedroom – hectic and chaotic – if that teenager loved Ronald Reagan and glossy golf magazines. As my gaze scanned the room, I noticed the confused stylistic touches of a young person: my grandmother’s vase lay upside down on the kitchen table, and he layered a glass armoire with every keepsake he had ever been given, transforming it into a cabinet of kitsch."
Story notes by Rosamund Lannin.
Excerpts of the song Lavish by Yigit Atilla were played in this podcast.
We now have merch available on Bonfire.
