Episode 177: Interview with Téa Obreht, author of Sunrise

from Top Shelf with Carol Ann Tack

Three lives, one hundred years, one ghost town: an explosive novel about a mysterious place called Sunrise, where the secrets of the past refuse to stay buried. Sunrise by Téa Obreht is a gorgeous three-dimensional novel and is my favorite of the year, so far. Had a terrific conversation with Téa Obreht about her stunning new novel, Sunrise. We go deep into the origin story of the book, its magnificent construction, how holding onto to narratives helps a writer, two novels she’s loving right now, and more. Téa, this book is a joy, thank you so much for joining me! Téa Obreht recommends: Villa Coco by Andrew Sean Greer; Some People by Parini Schroff. Follow Téa on Instagram.
