Written in 1842, it's a fable of a simple Russian clerk whose desire for a new coat to keep the St Petersburg winter at bay forever changes his life... and ultimately destroys him. Tim's off to find out what — if anything — Gogol's mysterious story can tell us, whilst contending with his own filthy disgrace of a jacket.\r\n[Listen to the piece here: http://bit.ly/1jEg88G]\r\n\r\nSuperman\r\nby Laura Starcheski and Al Letson (State of the Re:Union, 2012)\r\nAl Letson is a storyteller and public radio host who is hugely, passionately into comics. In his search for super stories, he found a Superman superfan that fell prey to a real life villain, and a tight-knit comics community that pitched in to help.\r\n\r\nPoioumenon\r\nby Jon Steiner & read by Adam Norris, sound by Louis Mitchell (Radiotonic [ABC RN], 2015)\r\nPoioumenon is a (sort of) short story by Jon Steiner, inspired (sort of) by and in homage (kind of) to the American postmodern (ish) writer David Foster Wallace, adapted (sort of) for the radio, and about (sort of): figuring out where to go post-post-modernism.\r\n\r\nPhoto\r\nCams\r\nhttp://bit.ly/1WCpWOx
