Wallow with Me: The Librarian Is In Podcast, Ep. 155
Welcome to The Librarian Is In, the New York Public Library's podcast about books, culture, and what to read next.
We are soooo emo this week.
Come stare moodily out a lonely window with us! Frank falls into a book trance after reading a French novel with a double meaning in its title, and Gwen unpacks a heartbreaker about a woman who leaves Jamaica for Brooklyn.
Lie with Me by Philippe Besson, translated by Molly Ringwald
Patsy by Nicole Dennis-Benin

- Here Comes the Sun, Nicole Dennis-Benin's first novel
