Show Notes

Bestselling author Meg Waite Clayton joins BOOKSTORM to discuss her incredible novel THE POSTMISTRESS OF PARIS! Why would an American heiress risk her life to help artists and intellectuals in France who were being hunted by the Nazis? What role generally did Americans play in helping the French Resistance? How were war refugees treated across Europe? We explore those fascinating topics and so much more! We talk about art and how it can expose evil … but also whether our attention gives evil a needed audience. What’s the point of surrealism - to provoke thought? Prompt Action? (And what is the game of Exquisite Corpse?!) We explore our artistic gifts and whether they tether us to our humanity. And wait until you hear an interesting tidbit from history about Hitler … as an artist who despised creativity. Do you process trauma through art or music? Join us for an illuminating episode!
