123: Jami Attenberg (ALL THIS COULD BE YOURS) and Sarah M. Broom's THE YELLOW HOUSE

In This Episode:

Jami Attenberg is in the midst of starting of her book tour when she drops into The Damn Library to discuss her new novel, All This Could Be Yours. We talk about New Orleans, and time, and being a writer online, and how it feels to be on her seventh book, and running a writing prompt in the summer, amongst other things. She brings us Sarah M. Broom's The Yellow House and we talk about New Orleans in Broom's context and the project of recent history.

Plus, an invitation for NYC-local listeners!
