Elixirs and Echoes: Lynda Cohen Loigman on Love and Memory


Listen Later

I’m excited to be joined on the show today by guest author, Lynda Cohen Loigman. On this episode we’re going to talk about her book, The Love Elixir of Augusta Stern. On the brink of eighty, retired pharmacist Augusta Stern moves to Florida and reunites with her first love, reigniting memories of 1920s Brooklyn. Torn between science and family folklore, Augusta once used a mysterious elixir with devastating consequences. Now, decades later, she must confront the truth—and the magic—of her past.
