Welcome to One Bright Book! Join our hosts Dorian, Frances, and Rebecca as they discuss Open Secrets by Alice Munro and chat about their current reading. It is necessary to mention that this conversation contains content about sexual abuse, and some people may find it difficult to listen to.
For our next episode, we will discuss ASIDE FROM MY HEART, ALL IS WELL by Héctor Abad, translated from the Spanish by Anne McLean. We would love to have you read along with us, and join us for our conversation coming to you in July.
