Matt Crawford speaks with author Michael Wohl about his book, In Herschel's Wake. Herschel Wohl was many things, twice-divorced, pharmacology professor, novelist, on-the-lam drug-runner, manual typewriter thief, Aikido white belt, possible communist and temp resident of Statia. He was also a father. When Herschel dies unexpectedly, Michael must travel with his siblings to bury his father and overcome decades of resentment. The simple act of burying Herschel turns into an ordeal that tracks with his life and his children are left to unpack what it all has meant.
