#PouredOver

"I loved that sense of the slow evolution of a community and watching it happen under your eyes." 

Abraham Verghese, author of Cutting for Stone, returns with a long-awaited novel — The Covenant of Water, an inter-generational tale through the lives of a family in Southern India. Verghese joins us to talk about the long gap between his works, his career as a doctor, themes of finding home and more with Poured Over host, Miwa Messer. We end this episode with TBR Topoff book recommendations from Marc and Madyson.   

This episode of Poured Over was hosted by Executive Producer Miwa Messer and mixed by Harry Liang.
