043--Bookin' w/ Ann Patchett

For the 43rd episode of Bookin', host Jason Jefferies is joined by Ann Patchett (winner of the Orange Prize, the Pen/Faulkner Award, a Guggenheim Fellowship, and one of Time Magazine's 100 Most Influential People in the World) to talk about her upcoming novel The Dutch House.  Topics discussed include the difference between approaching a writing project for children and one for adults, her approach to Amazon as both a successful author and an independent bookstore owner, what it was like to be named one of Time Magazine's 100 Most Influential People in the World, Marilynne Robinson, and much more.  Signed copies of The Dutch House can be preordered in-store at Quail Ridge Books and online here while supplies last.
