    INTRODUCING - A PLACE OF PARADOX

    INTRODUCING - A PLACE OF PARADOX

    RADIO VÉRTÉ Presents: A PLACE OF PARADOX

    A Literary Fiction Podcast Written & Narrated by Cory Zimmerman.
    SEASONAL | WEEKLY

    -SEASON ONE-
    THE WILD WIND - A Novel by Cory Zimmerman.
    The Wild Wind is an American gothic tale of a woman born and raised on the grounds of a psychiatric institution—not as a patient, but the daughter of the asylum’s farmer—who learns of love and loss while grappling with the question of what it means to be sane when insanity is the norm.
    “What’s to be sane in the garden of madness?”
    That's the question haunting Sarah, a centenarian writing about her life growing up at the asylum on the bank of the Illinois River. After a long-tormented life, Sarah intends to commit after completing a typewritten manuscript spoken to a man named Sam. Through a lens of lore and myth—the secrets that shaped Sarah’s twisted and mysterious life are revealed.
    In Sarah's labyrinthine attempt to find healing and peace, she deconstructs the most transformative moments of her life. It's a century as well as an existence punctuated by profound hardship and survival—one that ultimately leads to the conclusion: “Sanity is but paper in a world consumed by fire.”
    The Wild Wind is both plot- and character-driven, a refreshingly unique story with an equally unusual structure and lyrical prose. Sarah's account is honest, intellectually intriguing, and emotionally compelling—shining light on the dark side of American society and history— inspiring readers to look at themselves and the world in a new way.

    Radio Vérité Presents: The Spoon River Gothic Podcast - True Crime Narratives.
    Think, feel, understand the sideways world around you. We go where the others don’t. We dive deeper!
    Seasonal | Long Form | Weekly

    Written and hosted by Cory Zimmerman, our flagship series, THE SPOON RIVER GOTHIC PODCAST, is a growing collection of true crime narratives revealing tales of romance, greed, obsession, murder, and terror.

    We seek only those stories that cry out for justice--those untold, buried, and forsaken tales of madness, and those silenced voices deserving to be heard.
    Along our quest, sensationalism is not an end nor a means, rather, we embrace an unrelinquishing mission to humanize crimes which, all too often, remain untangibly abstract.
    We seek those critical elements that may allow us as individuals to relate and, thus, as a whole, better comprehend the tragedy that is this sideways world; and to better appreciate the darkness, upon which, light may shine.

Alicewonderland…

In the episode where the participant alleged as to how badly you treated her when she was a child and the questionable behavior of your father (which was very relevant to the investigation) your name is, in fact, entirely bleeped out.

AliceNeverland ,

Repetitive, poor quality, hypocritical

Nothing but small town gossip published and summarized as factual information. Doesn’t take the time to protect identities of those not involved in crimes or fact check information about those people. Then blames the town for the “gossip mill” he is trying to capitalize from.
