I enjoyed listening to that broadcast so much. Thank you, I really have to read his book's now. I do own She's Come Undone but will get the other two and start them as soon as possible.

Thank you, as always, for connecting readers and authors thru these interviews!
I'm curious now about the collection of stories he's edited, I'll be looking into them ...

I missed the show and was so disapointed that I couldn't participate in the live discussion. I am trying to listen to the taped show but can't get it to work at Blog Talk Radio or through any of the links. Any suggestions?

Lamb is a favorite author of mine. Thanks for a great show!

What is the perfect "theme" meal - somewhat gourmet - to accompany a women's book club meeting on The Hour I First Believed?
This Friday?!
Don't want to serve "prison food" or a home-cooked meal or northeastern US fare. These women want a night out from the everyday. Need help with creativity if you care to share it.
