The 148th episode of the Reading & Writing podcast features an interview with Susan Crandall, author of WHISTLING PAST THE GRAVEYARD, BACK ROADS, THE ROAD HOME, and many other novels.

“A coming-of-age story as well as a luminous portrait of courage and the bonds of friendship. . . Susan Crandall tells young Starla’s story with pitch-perfect tone, evoking 1963 Mississippi and its struggles with a deft hand. I laughed and cried at Starla’s keen observances of life and family and the sometimes blurred edges of justice. Like Harper Lee’s To Kill a Mockingbird and Kathryn Stockett’s The Help, Whistling Past the Graveyard is destined to become a classic.”
