A note about this season: David and I will be doing some traveling this summer, which will most likely cause a few gaps in the recording process. So if you don’t see Withywindle in your feed some weeks, don’t fret!

On this episode of Withywindle we are joined by the delightful Victoria Murgante, who’s debut novel, The Traveling Piano Man of Fort Whettershire, has been a hit ‘round these parts.

“In her enchanting debut novel, Victoria Murgante offers a story of beauty and substance about knowing and being known, exploring the value of true intimacy and the costly grace that makes it possible.”

This episode also features all the nonsense you’d expect, of course. Enjoy!

THIS SEASON we want to hear from you. Send us an audio recording of a book recommendation and a question, and you might end up featured on the show! Email those to podcasts@goldberrybooks.com
