## Resource

For episode 88 of the Podcast for Social Research, BISR's Rebecca Ariel Porte welcomed special guests—translator Katrina Dodson and songwriter and vocalist Lacy Rose—for an evening of reading, musical performance, and conversation honoring the enduring legacy of Brazilian writer Clarice Lispector. Occasioned by the release of Rose's concept album Lispector , featuring the Starling Quartet, and Dodson's Covert Joy , a selection of her translations of Lispector's short stories, the three intersperse between reading and performance a discussion of Lispector's work and the passionate attachments it inspires. What makes Lispector such a touchstone? What are the challenges of adapting her work to another language and another medium? What does it mean to find one's own idiom through the work of another? The Podcast for Social Research is produced by Ryan Lentini. Learn more about upcoming courses on our website .
