To supplement the advance preview of Jean Echenoz's Lightning — this week's Read This Next — book, I talked with translator Linda Coverdale about Echenoz, and the three "Eccentric Genius" books of his that she's translated.
You can read the entire interview here, but for now, here's an excerpt:
Chad W. Post: Were you excited when you first started translating Echenoz? These books are pretty different from his earlier works.
Linda Coverdale: When I picked up Ravel, I thought, oh goody, here we go, we're going to have this sort of rambunctious circus-like atmosphere, it will be rollicking and lots of fun, let's see what happens. Well, it was Ravel. My first reaction was, what? Now I'm translating Echenoz and he's gone into a monastery? It was delightful but it certainly was a surprise. It was as if he were playing around, doing his homework, taking his exercise in all sorts of ways. But it was always Echenoz, and he was working on his style and how he would manipulate the language. It seemed that he had taken along the two things that I had most enjoyed about his writing before: that it was very antic, he had a wonderful sense of humor, and yet, it was very elegant—even when it sprawled, he was in control. He took those two aspects and he, in a way, compressed them, and raised them to a higher level, and started tackling what one might call more serious things. Which isn't to be nasty to previous novels at all, no, he likes change, he'd been playing with different genres before and he said he was ready for a change, so, as I understand it, he was actually trying to do something different in the way of time, because previous books had always been set in the period in which they were written, so he thought he might try his hand at something else. But he didn't want to do a historical novel, some sort of bodice-ripping thing. He wanted to set it—and this was the particular allure of this idea—in the period between the two wars, which was very rich, and he was going to have all sorts of real characters in there, real people, Ravel among them, and Ravel ended up walking off with the book that Echenoz eventually wrote. So that's how he got into that. He was making a change, and he was experimenting with it, the experiment fizzled, but there was a by-product that proved to be, from my point of view, solid gold. That's how he started with the Three Lives.
CWP: Do you know how historically accurate these books are? I mean, Ravel seems very much based on historical records, whereas in Lightning, Tesla's name is changed to Gregor, which raised some questions for me.
LC: With this new style, he stuck very close to biography in the first novel—and they're all novels, he says very specifically that they're all novels, but in Ravel, I did the research and I checked up on lots of things, and I kept coming across information that Echenoz must himself have found. He did extensive research—he was looking at letters, he was looking at memos, he was looking at scribbles on manuscripts, looking at books about Ravel, you name it. The idea was, he would have so much . . . So when I say his style became compressed, it seems to me that, after eating all this information, he was very very choosy, he distilled all the data and events and emotions, and crafted his sentences to make them really rich and resonant. Most of the dialogue in Ravel was in fact rooted in reality, but he didn't create a lot of it in the three novels, because what he was writing was a novel that stayed very close to the actual life that he wanted to explore. Then when he finished Ravel, he thought he'd like to do the same thing again, but he decided to pick an area about which he knew very little, and he decided, sport, sport would be good, and he found his character, Zátopek, and he also started looking into the history and politics of the period, which he didn't touch on really at all in Ravel. So he was taking the same idea but playing changes on it, and then seeing what would happen, which turned into Running. [. . .]
CWP: And this led to Lightning . . .
LC: It was a logical progression, he thought he'd like to do it once more, and this time he was looking for a scientist, and Tesla was the one he latched on to. He relied on Margaret Cheney's Tesla: Man out of Time, which he credited. But he had given himself more freedom with the second book when he was dealing with Emil—Echenoz was a little more roman-esque, and allowed himself some curlicues—and he decided that this time, he was going to do more of that. Frankly, he was going to take liberties that he hadn't taken before, and structure his book more like a novel. Well, listen, Tesla's life is like a novel. The man was insane.
So when people say it's a trilogy, Echenoz makes a real point of saying no, it is a suite. He didn't conceive of it as a trilogy. Each thing led to the next one, and in a way, he was moving blindly, but confidently. After he'd done his research and made his choice, then he knew where he was.

Mahasweta Devi is not only one of the most prolific Bengali authors, but she's also an important activist. In fact, for Devi, the two seem to go together. As you can probably tell from the titles, she writes about women. . .

Johnny Weir Named L.A. Gay Pride Grand Marshal (Exclusive)
The reality star will oversee the annual parade set for June 12 in West Hollywood.
Pop Star on Ice and Skating With the Stars judge Johnny Weir has been named grand marshal of the 2011 L.A. Gay Pride Parade.
The openly gay three-time U.S. figure skating champion and star of Be Good Johnny Weir has been an advocate for gay rights and will oversee the June 12 parade as it travels along Santa Monica Boulevard in West Hollywood, Calif.
"Johnny lives a life with a defined purpose, is dedicated to helping young people and is not afraid to be himself, sometimes not always an easy thing for a world-class athlete," said Christopher Street West board president Rodney Scott.
Said Weir: "I'm not ashamed to be me. More than anyone else I know, I love my life and accept myself. What's wrong with being unique? I am proud of everything that I am and will become," the two-time Olympian said.
The 41st annual Los Angeles Pride Parade draws more than 400,000 people to West Hollywood for a weekend of events celebrating gay, lesbian, bisexual and transgender visibility. It is organized by Christopher Street West, the group that produced the first LGBT Pride Parade.
Previous grand marshals have included Sharon and Kelly Osbourne, Chelsea Handler, Cyndi Lauper and Kathy Griffin.

Bathrooms with shower, bath and basin are shared with other guests.
Toilet is a separate room. (This room is closest to the toilet and there is some noise travel associated with its location. It is the cheapest room. We only have a few guests so it is not usually a big concern.)

Interaction with Guests
Interaction with guests is welcomed when assistance is required. Access to your room is through the family area and I usually greet you in the mornings and evenings. Occasionally when my timetable permits, we have a shared meal if you want to participate, but it is not compulsory. In my experience as a host I have found that some people want to have interaction with the family while others prefer to be left to enjoy their time alone. I try to respect guests' wishes in that regard.

It is in a vibrant area, with Chinatown nearby and a Buddhist Temple opposite. The State Art Gallery, Museum and Library are a few minutes' walk away.

Money Street House was all I had hoped for, and more! Pictures can't convey how warm and cosy it is, and Joanne and Glen's obvious love for their home.
They made me feel welcome, and as I was the only guest at the time (low season and on a weekday), Joanne kindly let me use the balcony. It overlooks a lovely, quiet street.
I enjoyed my stay and felt safe. Joanne's lemon cake was delicious! There are lots to see and eat around the area too, and the CBD is within walking distance. Very convenient to get around on foot.
It was a fantastic stay at money street house.
Excellent location, very pretty and clean house with all the facilities you need, we just felt like home during our stay there.
Joanne is nice and helpful. Will definitely recommend this place to fds. Thank you very much for your hospitality Joanne :)
If only every AirBnb stay was like Joanne's. I flew in town from the states last minute and booked it on the day. Joanne responded within minutes. Her place is beautiful, quiet, and in a great neighborhood walking distance to bars and restaurants. The beds are comfortable and shower is excellent. Tons of travel books are in the lounge room which is stocked daily with essentials plus occasionally slices of the best baked goods on the planet. Cheers Joanne. Thanks for having us.
Joanne and the Money Street House are amazing! The house is incredible, full of character. The location sets you in the best part of town but tucked away enough to help you relax.
Would recommend this to anybody coming to Perth.
I had a lovely time staying in the Philosophy Room of the Money Street House. The house is beautiful and my room was just what I needed. The entire third floor is dedicated to guests with a common area, a small kitchenette, and a bathroom and shower. Each bedroom door locks separately - it feels like a real bed and breakfast! Joanne was a welcoming and helpful host. She gave me advice about the best beach to go to in Perth and some helpful tips about running in the area and parks to check out. Every day she left a delicious piece of lemon cake for each of the guests. She also has a wash machine on the premises and let's you do laundry at no extra cost (very helpful when you have been traveling for a month like I had). Would definitely recommend to all my family and friends.
Thanks Joanne and family for a lovely first airbnb experience. The beautiful federation style house was located very close to Chinatown restaurants, close to the bars and restaurants of Northbridge and in walking distance to the CBD. The Philosophy room & the bathroom were clean and affectionately furnished - there is a wardrobe with hangars and various philosophy/psychology books to read. Breakfast was wholesome and filling (with cereal, yoghurt, toast, juice, milk and fresh fruit) - i would recommend the homemade muesli!
Joanne was very friendly and was helpful with information around Perth and lent me her rain jacket when the Perth weather was a bit rainy. Unfortunately, I didn't have enough time in my stay to borrow the bicycle to explore the Perth area but would have loved to.
I would recommend Joanne's place to anyone wanting to stay near the CBD and would definitely stay there again when visiting Perth again. Also, can't forget to mention the yummy cakes Joanne baked and left for me in the evenings!
Hello Joanne. Thank you for all your kindness and generous hospitality given to me while I stayed the Money Street House. There were beautiful flowrs outside. Smells so sweet. The room was gorgeous and clean. I felt very comfortable.
If I come to Perth again, I'll stay this house.
Take care. Thanks.

About the Host, Joanne
I am married with 3 children and 1 grandchild.Two of my children have left home now but we enjoy getting together for meals. Rory, our son, is still at uni and lives in the cottage to the rear of the house. My first grandchild is two and we hope to spend time with him enjoying his early years and beyond. My husband is a professional who works from a home office and I run the office for him. I am also a volunteer Art Gallery guide at the State Art Gallery.I am a trained primary school teacher and an ESL teacher. I like to cook interesting food, especially Indian/Persian/Mediterranean, when I have the time. I love books, art, reading, walking, riding my bike, travelling and meeting people from around the world.
We rise early, so tend to be in bed by 11pm (12pm on Friday and Saturday) and would prefer if guests feel the same about evening retiring times. There is flexibility regarding flight times of course. You are welcome to sleep in!
We started hosting in September 2012 and are enjoying it very much. We have met some very interesting and friendly guests.

The Seattle Seahawks may have won Super Bowl XLVIII in convincing fashion, but who were the winners of the 2014 Social Super Bowl? We tracked all the social media buzz surrounding the Super Bowl using our social analytics application, Radian6, including total conversations, most mentioned brands, top hashtags, and more.
We've compiled our findings in the presentation below, but here are a few of our favorite items from the highlight reel:
- While the Seahawks ruled the scoreboard, the Broncos fared better in the Twittersphere with 6,384,933 total mentions (vs 4,563,177 for Seattle).
- Budweiser was the most discussed brand during the game with 192,527 mentions, but JC Penney made a surprise appearance in the #2 slot with 120,334 mentions -- without even putting a commercial on TV.
- #Superbowl was (not surprisingly) the most used hashtag with 2,324,190 mentions. Among brands, #EsuranceSave30 and #BestBuds (Budweiser) were #1 and #2, respectively.
- During the halftime show, Bruno Mars' fan base propelled him past the Red Hot Chili Peppers with more than four times the number of social mentions (2,889,408 vs 706,198).

Like Louis C.K.'s Hilarious yesterday, today's Daily Distraction also comes in the form of a documentary. You may know Greg Gillis, but it's more likely you've heard of his alias Girl Talk. Through his electric concerts and meticulously crafted mash-up albums, he has become one of my favorite performers. Director JP Coakley followed around the artist for his insanely extravagant New Year's Eve show. It took place in Chicago at the Congress Theater and Coakley crafted a 30-minute documentary. Like Girl Talk's last album Feed the Animals, he uploaded it for free online. You can check it out below in three parts.

Hearse Driver, Director Fired After Stopping To Get Coffee On Way To Funeral For Veteran
A hearse driver and a funeral director have been fired after they stopped for coffee on the way to a funeral.
A hearse driver and a funeral director have been fired after they stopped for coffee on the way to a funeral.
Displaying pictures of the deceased at a funeral is really common, but it caused this funeral to be shut down.
A man in California allegedly stole a hearse during a funeral, while the corpse was in the back of the vehicle. The man, who police suspect has mental issues, jumped into the hearse while it was running and took off with the car.
A funeral home in Michigan is now offering drive-thru visitations for those too busy or unable to get down to pay final respects.
Some are calling it a miracle while others say it may have just been a medical mistake -- a three-year-old Filipino girl woke up at her own funeral.
Visitation starts at 7 a.m. this morning at Pellerin Funeral Home in Breaux Bridge and runs through to 10:30.
A video of a dance battle at a funeral has some calling it a fitting tribute to the deceased, while others feel it is flat out disrespectful.
An Ohio Man's dying wish was to be buried with his beloved Harley Davidson motorcycle, and his family is honoring his wish. Billy Standley is taking his bike with him, six feet below the earth's surface, in a massive see through casket.
Some internet fads are sillier than others, but this one is just awful. Taking "selfies" at funerals has now become the thing to do and there is even a Tumblr page called SelfiesAtFunerals that encourages and collects these little internet nuggets of disrespect.
You can file this one under the category "Major Fail." Watch as this man attempts to sing "Amazing Grace" at a funeral.

You can abolish the reproductive rights women gained in 1973, with Roe v. Wade, when the Supreme Court legalized abortion—or rather ruled that women had a right to privacy over their own bodies that precluded the banning of abortion. But you can't so easily abolish the idea that women have certain inalienable rights.

Women's lib hasn't made it through Washington yet. Micah Zenko at Foreign Policy magazine looked at the percentages of females holding leadership roles related to foreign policy and national security and found that women remain vastly underrepresented among our nation's policymakers. (more)
Truthdig's Larry Gross, a pioneer in the field of gay studies, argues that for all the hoopla surrounding "Brokeback Mountain" and this year's spate of gay-themed films, there is little about them that upends Hollywood conventions or challenges popular ideas about homosexuality. "Hollywood and much of the media may be awash in liberal self-congratulation," Gross writes, "but they—and we—are also soaking in the familiar hypocrisy of homophobia." Update: Down to the Wire
