Episode 127 "A Time to Be Born by Dawn Powell"
from There Will Be Books · host Peter Murphy
This week we're back with one of our favorite authors, Dawn Powell! Criminally, underrated and under read, Powell's novel, "A Time to Be Born," is a fantastic novel full of satire, sharp criticism, and supreme prose. We hope more people pick up Powell's works, and hopefully Penguin or some other major classic imprint will republish all her work. Always fun to discuss Powell, and we hope you enjoy the episode!
