Nerds, this episode is truly something special. 🤍
Today on Fiction Fanatics, we’re joined by New York Times bestselling author Alyson Richman, and from the very first question, we were captivated by her warmth, depth, and singular way of storytelling. Alyson has a remarkable ability to weave history, love, grief, and art into narratives that feel both intimate and timeless.
We talk about her journey to becoming an author, the themes that thread through her work, and what draws her to stories shaped by memory and loss. Our conversation dives deep into her latest novel, The Missing Pages, a haunting and heartfelt reimagining of the Titanic tragedy of Harry Widener — told through the voice of his ghost in the Harvard library built in his honor.
Part love story, part ghost story, and a powerful meditation on how books preserve the people we’ve lost, this episode is for anyone who believes stories can outlive us.
✨ Thoughtful, moving, and unforgettable — this is one you won’t want to miss.
