SLCP - EP69 - Victoria Redel, Author Of "I Am You"

Enjoy an all new episode of The Sarah Lawrence College Podcast! This week we're joined by professor and author Victoria Redel to discuss her new novel, I Am You. Victoria describes how she conceived of the story, which is a "mesmerizing historical novel...a meditation on gender, an ode to artistic creation, and an unforgettable love story that reimagines the life of renowned still life painter Maria van Oosterwijck during the Dutch Golden Age".Victoria shares how she crafted three-dimensional characters in a lush world, how her research into paint making and color theory informed her writing, and what she's learned from her SLC students.Follow Sarah Lawrence College on social media @sarahlawrencecollege and follow the podcast on Instagram @slcpodcast.Give this podcast a five star rating and review in Apple Podcasts or follow on Spotify.
