Description
This podcast is sustained by sales of our debut book, Meow: A Novel (For Cats).
Episode 2: The Twilight World, Heat 2, and the Economics of the Cinematic Novel
In this episode, your cat will be given a close-up on a dying artform through the lens of several filmmakers-cum-literati, including Michael Mann, Quentin Tarantino, Brian De Palma, and Werner Herzog. Have these world-class auteurs become true believers in the primacy of the written word, or are they simply victims of a sclerotic feature-film market, nudged by shrewd agents into recycling yesterday’s scripts for a quick buck? Thoughts about the merits and economic upsides of the cinematic novel are meowed vigorously, for a full thirty minutes.
MEOW is the first and only literary podcast for your cat, conceived and presented in its native language.
