After a delay of a couple weeks, I finally found the time to upload video from BookTalk featuring Alice McDermott, author of the National Book Award winning Charming Billy, & Blake Robison, Artistic Director of Round House Theatre, who staged the play version of the novel. This was our inaugural BookTalk event, and it received funding this year from the National Endowment for the Arts. Look for more BookTalks in the future. And don't forget, if you'd like to hear more of Alice McDermott, she was also featured on The Writer's Center's podcast. In an interview with Shannon O'Neill.
This is an absolutely fascinating conversation about a terrific novel and a wonderful play adapted from that novel...Thank you!
