A Zibby Summer Reads pick! Catherine Newman, SANDWICH

Zibby chats with New York Times bestselling author Catherine Newman about SANDWICH, a wise, hilarious, and exquisitely written story about a family’s yearly Cape Cod vacation—but this time, fifty-something Rocky is sandwiched between her half-grown kids and aging parents and her secrets and memories start coming to the surface... Catherine discusses the universal experiences of middle-aged women, the real-life moments that have inspired her writing, and how she writes about life’s messiness with sensitivity and laugh-out-loud humor. Finally, she reveals her idea for her next book and shares the book she read recently and loved.Purchase on Bookshop: https://bit.ly/4bRJcmCShare, rate, & review the podcast, and follow Zibby on Instagram @zibbyowens!** Want more?
