I’ve been listening to a lot of podcasts lately. It is a
good way to find out what it happening in literary culture when bookstores are
closed and you can’t get out as much. So, I happened on the New Book Network
coming out of Chicago, and in particular, G.P. Gottlieb, who reports on new
literature. I contacted her and she charmingly agreed to interview me,
regarding So Are You to My Thoughts, for the network.
So, in the middle of last month, Don hauled out his best
Schoeps microphone and set up a little studio for me. Galit (Gottlieb) invited
me to the Zencastr software and we recorded the interview! She put it together, it was edited for sound levels and so on, and it is now out. You can listen
to the interview by clicking the link below.
So Are You to My Thoughts is the last of a series of
books, all of which I could not expect Galit to read! She did read this last
one, however, and asked penetrating, interesting question about it, which
allowed me to say things I wanted to and a few I didn’t need to reveal. You can
hear me flailing about for a thought. That kind of thing where your brain is
going in several directions and you are quickly trying to determine which!
Galit is a writer herself, writing mysteries with recipes in them, which she
invites us all to test! You can hear the life and interests we share in our
conversation. Minnesota, Illinois, California. Food and wine, politics and
spiritual practices.
I was deeply grateful for the pleasure of being on her show!
