About this listen
This week’s episode is sweeping, interesting, and passionate. Guest Andre Dubus III takes us on a ride through some of memoir’s more confounding territory—what’s yours to tell; considerations of harm; writing about violence; and getting to truth on the page. Also, Grant has a new book out, and we talk about his book trailer in this week’s episode. Watch here.
Andre Dubus III has authored nine books including the New York Times’ bestsellers House of Sand and Fog, The Garden of Last Days, and his memoir, Townie. His most recent novel, Such Kindness, was published in June 2023, and a collection of personal essays, Ghost Dogs: On Killers and Kin, was published in March 2024. Dubus has been a finalist for the National Book Award, and has been awarded a Guggenheim Fellowship, The National Magazine Award for Fiction, three Pushcart Prizes, and is a recipient of an American Academy of Arts and Letters Award in Literature. He teaches at the University of Massachusetts Lowell.
