Book Talk with Cara Putman

117: Sarah Sundin and Amanda Barratt


Listen Later

Today it's so much fun to introduce you to Sarah Sundin and Amanda Barratt. These two write amazing World War II fiction, the kind that pulls you in, yanks out your heart, and leaves you thinking hard about what you've read. They each illuminate different parts of the war and are meticulous at bringing the details of real stories to the page. In this episode, we discuss their newest books. Amanda's is The Warsaw Sisters, set in Poland during the war, and Sarah gushes about it. Sarah's is Embers in the London Sky and involves a Dutch mother who is separated from her three-year-old during the Blitz. They each talk about the joys (Amanda: finding the stories of resistance, Sarah: her characters in particular the hero), and the way they structure their days when writing.

And in the end, they both give fabulous advice for their younger selves and current writers. You won't want to miss a word. Thanks for joining us for this episode of Book Talk. You'll be inspired!
