Next Up: Tom Lake - Ann Patchett

Gary, Whitney, and Mira analyze another recently-published novel on the next episode of Writers Who Read. Next up: Tom Lake by Ann Patchett.Pulitzer Prize finalist author and noted Nashville independent bookstore owner Ann Patchett uses Thornton Wilder's 1938 play, Our Town, to frame her meta exploration of its themes. Multiple Our Town productions ripple through Lara Kenison's past as she relates her life's journey to her three daughters. And what did Lara's dalliance with a movie star really mean? Quite a lot, actually. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
