Show Notes

This week, we’re joined by Hal Schrieve. Hal is the author of Out of Salem, which was longlisted for the National Book Award, and the forthcoming How to Get Over the End of the World. Ze is also a children's librarian at the New York Public Library. Together, we discuss Chapter 26: Artistic Attempts, in which Amy is bad at everything she tries, from charcoal sketches to lobster preparation. We spend a lot of time on the lobster. Both Consider the Lobster and Consider the Oyster are discussed. What do M.F.K., D.F.W., and L.M.A. have in common? Tune in to find out!
