Bestselling author Charmaine Wilkerson returns to the podcast to discuss her engrossing, beautifully imagined new family saga, GOOD DIRT. Charmaine delves into the story of Ebby Freeman, a woman seeking solace in France after a personal tragedy, only to find that her past is inescapable. Charmaine reveals how history, heirlooms, and identity shape Ebby’s journey and how the novel intertwines multiple perspectives—including those of ancestors, neighbors, and unexpected voices. She and Zibby also explore themes of trauma and resilience while reflecting on the deeply emotional and thought-provoking one-liners that punctuate the novel.
