Tk With James Scott

In her harrowing novel, OUR HEARTS WILL BURN US DOWN, Anne Valente creates a portrait of trauma and the grief that follows. She and James discuss depicting violence, point of view, why drawer novels should never be published, the moments when they wondered if they should pursue something other than writing, and how music tastes may reveal more about characters than anything else. Plus, Emily Nemens talks about her work as co-editor and prose editor at THE SOUTHERN REVIEW.    Anne Valente: http://www.annevalente.com/ Anne and James Discuss: Aimee Bender  Haruki Murakami  The Dzanc Books Prize for Fiction   Dan Wickett  DARK SHADOWS dir by Tim Burton  Jamie Quatro  AND THEN WE CAME TO THE END by Joshua Ferris Steve Bartman  Nine Inch Nails  The Pixies  The Cure  KILL BILL, VOL. 1  The Dave Matthews Band  Blues Traveler  The Clash  Widespread Panic   - The Southern Review: http://thesouthernreview.org/ Emily and James discuss: Bret Lott  Jeanne Leiby  The Center For Architecture  Cara Blue Adams  Jill McCorkle
