Andrea Yaryura Clark joins Zibby to talk about her debut novel, On a Night of a Thousand Stars, which focuses on the history of Argentina's Dirty War. The two discuss how the book grew out of a fascination with the children of those who had been disappeared in the 1970s and 80s, as well as how the project originally began as a documentary about those she interviewed. Andrea also shares why she wrote the two timelines as two separate books, who she would cast to play her protagonist in a movie, and what her children think of her work.
