The Second Coming by Garth Risk Hallberg is a story of fathers and daughters and the lengths we'd go to for the people we love. Hallberg joins us to talk about writing likable characters, self-discovery and trauma, his literary influences and more with Miwa Messer, host of Poured Over. We end this episode with TBR Topoff recommendations from Marc and Donald.
