Imaginary Boardwalks (ft. Joshua Cohen)

Our Struggle returns! It's 100 degrees outside so come out to the shore and take a trip under the boardwalk with us and our very special guest Joshua Cohen (author of The Netanyahus; buy it now)!  A Book of Questions about our season 2 premiere:  Why is Joshua Cohen compared only to the dead? What is the sound of one ball-sack slapping against wet tile in a banya? Why does Lauren think the past is quaint?  Is auto-fiction solipsistic and foreclosed?  How does JC avoid setting off the bullshit detectors of his household gods?  Where has all the passionate nihilism gone? Why do semicolons induce impotence?  Why does The Netanyahus contain so many disquisitions? What’s the problem with pastiche, bricolage and collage?  Why didn’t Lauren participate in boardwalk necking?  Why don’t critics discuss the ghostliness of writers’ anonymous work?  What does it feel like when James Wood reviews your book?  How can Drew regrow his foreskin and escape the limitations of his MFA?  Why does liberalism end in martyrdom?  Why does JC think Time’s Arrow is Martin Amis’s best book?  What was so hysterical about hysterical realism? What are the dangers of comic exaggeration?  Can words enact an incantatory violence?  Is My Struggle merely narcotic?     Do you want to get in touch?
