Laura Zigman, SMALL WORLD

Zibby is joined by bestselling author and repeat MDHTTRB guest Laura Zigman to discuss Small World, a tender and quirky novel about two newly divorced sisters who move back in together and finally confront a tragedy of their past–the death of their disabled sister. Laura reveals how her own life experiences inspired this story, sharing the intimate details of her sister’s passing, her childhood in a sad household, the stigma around therapy in the 70s, and her recent desire to learn more about her past. She also talks about her book’s most memorable elements–the fascinating sister dynamic, the hysterical neighborhood app poems, and the tragicomedy of it all. Finally, she reveals the new projects she has in the works!Purchase on Bookshop: https://bit.ly/3GFbK5kSubscribe to Zibby's weekly newsletter here.Purchase Moms Don't Have Time to Read Books merch here.
