Motherhood, Fear, and the Twisted Genius of Ashley Audrain
from Cat & Nat Unfiltered
When Nat discovered her daughter was reading The Push for school, she knew we had to talk to the woman who wrote the book! Ashley Audrain is the powerhouse behind the global sensation The Push and the international bestseller The Whispers. Ashley's debut became a New York Times, Sunday Times, and #1 international bestseller, landed a spot as a Good Morning America Book Club pick, and is now headed for a limited TV series. We explore the themes that hooked readers everywhere, like motherhood, fear, creativity, connection, and all the unsettling bits we don’t usually say out loud. Ashley also takes us behind the scenes of her writing life, her publishing journey, and what it feels like when your novel becomes the book people are talking about.
