William Kent Krueger and Coming of Age Stories (E42)

In today’s episode, I am chatting with William Kent Krueger. William was raised in the Cascade Mountains of Oregon. He now makes his home in St. Paul, Minnesota. He is the author of many novels including the brand new release (as of yesterday!), The River We Remember; This Tender Land, that spent nearly 6 months on the New York Times bestseller list; the Edgar Award winning novel, Ordinary Grace and the Cork O’Connor mystery series. I have loved his books since I read This Tender Land and he is an auto-buy author for me. His books are set in the Midwest and have such a strong sense of place, that they immediately take me back to the small town where I grew up.

We chatted about memories that books bring us, cultivating his writing and reading life, as well as what it is to be human. Tune in to hear this insightful episode including his favorite books over the years as well as his list of regular re-reads. I hope you enjoy the episode as much as I did.
