Today's episode is an interview with Catherine Hall, author of the war time novel The Repercussions. In this chat, Catherine discusses how her trips while working with civil rights and peacekeeping organizations inspired her writing and shared how she tackled the monumental task of researching a book that encapsulates multiple timelines including World War I and the war in Afghanistan. She also shares what it's like to cut more than 60,000 words from her novel while discussing the writers that inspire her and her love of getting lost in a library.
