Mary Laura Philpott on the Joy & Dread of Being Human
Manage episode 335697795 series 2949304
People tell Mary Laura Philpott that her writing is like having a conversation with her.
We can say that is 100% true. She’s an utterly captivating writer AND conversationalist.
You may have first heard about Mary Laura Philpott through her first book, “I Miss You When I Blink.” Her new memoir in essays is “Bomb Shelter: Love, Time, and Other Explosives.” It was named an Editor’s Choice by the New York Times Book Review and one of the Best Books of 2022 by NPR.
“Bomb Shelter” had Laura laughing and crying and nodding her head as another woman (and mother) who is solidly in mid-life.
There are almost no places left where contemporary authors can sit down and discuss their work. It’s really important to me, and everyone, at TMST that we hold this space. If you care about these kinds of conversations, we hope you’ll become a TMST Plus member.
