Irish writer Colm Tóibín is a master, whether it’s his novels like Brooklyn or Nora Webster or The Testament of Mary, he has a settled style of writing that brings you not just to a place but to a specific moment.

It’s the same for his short stories. His latest collection of stories is The News From Dublin. I’m thrilled to have him on this edition of Steve Bertrand on Books.

Colm is something special. He makes this podcast special, too.
