In this episode I speak with author Jeffrey Lewis about his book Land of Cockaigne. A novel that reimagines paradise on earth as a village in Maine for at risk youth, Lewis wraps socioeconomic and racial issues in a blanket of grief in an honest depiction of our current racial climate. A beautifully raw view of our contemporary society it is also an open ended question that lets us reach our own assumptions and conclusions. A truly thought provoking and rapturous read.
