Mariam sits down with local author and attorney Anthony B. Gray to discuss his debut novel Torrent. They talk about his inspiration for his main character, how grief plays an important role in the novel, and the novel is about survival outside of the strategic world of the courtroom. They also talk about Anthony’s lifelong love of stories and storytelling, and his future projects. Torrent is available for checkout from the library and for purchase from your favorite bookstore.

Later, Erin and Mariam talk about Mariam’s long March to-be-read list, and highlights of programs being hosted at all library branches in March 2026.
