6 1/2 Days in the City

from Bedside Reading · host Bedside Reading Podcast

Send us Fan MailI've got a special episode today as part of June 2026, Pride Month. A warm welcome to Isaac Grivalja We're talking about his debut novel, Six and a Half Days in the City, which is a very quick and compelling read, which follows a young Latino bisexual EMT as he gets on a plane from his home in California to New York for a week of leave.He's going to spend it with two of his oldest friends. And we have a real sense of his unmasking and freedom. And then, unfortunately, the unravelling that ends up coming with that and really thinking about his need to express himself and get away from the pressures of his work and life and the expectations of him at home.It's a really interesting book. And I've really enjoyed talking to Isaac about how he wrote it. How much of himself is in Cameron? and the reasons for making sure that we are all seen in fiction because you can't be what you can't see.
