Show Notes

Zibby speaks to Angie Cruz about her magnetic (and brilliantly structured) new novel How Not to Drown in a Glass of Water, which is a New York Times notable book and New York Times book review editor’s choice! Angie describes her protagonist, Cara Romero, who came to her in a moment of deep despair; the African American stories that helped her feel connected during the pandemic; and her journey from MFA to four years of rejection to award-winning books! Finally, as a board member of her local bookshop, she reminds us to slow down, walk to our local stores, and connect with small business owners.
