Listen "Dennis Lehane "Small Mercies""
Episode Synopsis
"Hell-bent." It's a Chatter hall of fame as David and Torie are joined by Angie Kim, Tope Folarin, and Lou Bayard. They bemoan book banning and admit to acceptance speeches never given. Angie previews "Happiness Falls" coming out in September, and Lou raises the curtain on the upcoming PEN/Faulkner Awards. Award winning and best selling author several times over Dennis Lehane zooms in to share "Small Mercies." Set in Boston during the explosive desegregation of public schools, "Small Mercies" is unflinching. Lehane's masterful storytelling grabs you with its deep dive into power, racism, and the love of a mother. And we think it was cathartic for Dennis.
