447 Lady Chatterley's Lover (with Saikat Majumdar)
Manage episode 342880689 series 2048290
D.H. Lawrence (1885-1930) started a firestorm with his 1928 novel Lady Chatterley's Lover, which was quickly banned around the world. But the novel eventually found its way into print, after winning numerous obscenity trials in the 1950s and 60s, and today it's widely available (if not always widely read). In this episode, Jacke talks to Indian novelist Saikat Majumdar (The Middle Finger, Silverfish) about Saikat's childhood, his journey to becoming a writer, and his admiration for Lawrence's classic novel.
Additional listening suggestions:
- 87 Man in Love: the Passions of D.H. Lawrence

- 338 Finding Yourself in Hollywood (with Meg Tilly)
