As Seen on WUNC-TV’s NC Bookwatch

Watch the Full Interview

Bookwatch at UNC TV broadcast this interview with D.G. Martin in May 2016. D.G. read the book with great sympathy, saying he had had a border trip on his bucket list. My book served as a surrogate to his travel there. After publishing a review in numerous newspapers and on his radio program, he invited me into the studio for a video interview. By then, he really knew me and the book as this interview shows.

Recently he also recommended my book for summer reading in his column in the News and Observer in Raleigh: http://www.newsobserver.com/news/local/community/chapel-hill-news/chn-opinion/article76169092.html.

I’m grateful to D.G. for his careful reading, kind words, and astute questions.
