EPiSODE 70.

“We’re tigers, the three of us, but who the hell are we to make decisions for the world just because we’re compulsive?”:

For this special international episode, we’re joined by Nicolás Virviescas and Daniel Castro, founders of the Colombian online film criticism portal Filmigrana. Our guests selected Alfred Bester’s The Stars My Destination to discuss for the occasion, the story of a stranded astronaut whose only motivation for survival is revenge.

The book, a favorite of filmmaker John Carpenter, recalls the work of William Gibson, Stephen King, J.G. Ballard, Philip K. Dick and Kurt Vonnegut - despite being written in 1956 before any of them came to prominence. Join us for this NYC to Bogota transmission of thoughts on the book’s sci-fi satire, violence, betrayal and metaphysics - it’s William Blake meets psycho-surgery, The Count of Monte Cristo & corporate espionage in Bester’s cult classic.
