We had a great show planned for you today with two great authors. But, sometimes life is crazier than the fiction we talk about and today, we ended up with two great authors, but only one we expected.
Sloane Crosley pays homage to Guy de Maupassant in her debut novel about three old friends searching for an elusive necklace as a way out of their quarter-life crisis, yet unable to share their deepest thoughts with their closest friends.
Colum McCann was supposed to join us but was unable at the last minute. Instead, you'll hear from him next week.
But, that left Colin with a lot of time on air by himself. He got to vamp for the last half hour like he hasn't been able to do since he started working at WNPR. He kind of liked it, especially when author David Mitchell dropped in for a surprise chat. You can't make up this stuff.
Colum McCann joins us next week.
GUESTS:
- Sloane Crosley - Author of I Was Told There'd Be Cake and How Did You Get This Number and most recently, her debut novel, The Clasp
- David Mitchell - Author of The Bone Clocks, Cloud Atlas, and most recently, Slade House
