On this episode, author Christian Kiefer joins us to talk about his new novel THE HEART OF IT ALL. It takes place in a failing rust-belt town in Ohio where the current political climate is dividing residents. Yet these characters—a white family with deep roots, a Black family trying to integrate into the neighborhood, and a Pakistani family who recently bought the one viable factory in town—work together, socialize together, and send their kids to school together, as neighbors do. If you’ve never read Christin Kiefer, you owe it to yourself to pick up this book by one of our best living novelists.
