Interview with Abraham Verghese (Author of 'The Covenant of Water')
In this episode of the Libro.fm Podcast, we sat down in person with bestselling author and physician, Dr. Abraham Verghese. His most recent novel ‘The Covenant of Water’ was an instant New York Times Bestseller, an Oprah Book Club Pick, and one of Barack Obama’s top books of 2023. We discuss his research process, how he auditioned to narrate his own book, how his work as a physician impacts his writing, and his recipe for “bachelor chicken”.
