There is very little I enjoy more than talking with writers about their books. That's especially true when the writer I get to talk to is one I've been a HUGE fan of for a long time.
Jonathan Evison's new novel, The Heart of Winter, is out this week, and it might be his best one yet. It's the sweet, heartwarming story of a 70-year marriage.
I recently got to talk to him for a piece for the Chicago Review of Books. Please head over to CHIRB to read the interview, in which he talks about the inspiration for the novel, flawed but redemptive characters, and how important caretakers are both in sickness and in health.
The photo below is from Book Expo America 2012, the first time I got to meet him. He signed my ARC of The Revised Fundamentals of Caregiving, which naturally I still have and enjoys a prominent spot on my bookshelf.
