Book Lust with Nancy Pearl
Leading authors on life and writingAbout Book Lust with Nancy Pearl
Seattle's own "action figure librarian," best-selling author, and literary critic Nancy Pearl sits down each month with authors, poets, and other literary figures for conversations about books, reading, and the process and art of writing. There's no one better qualified than Nancy, who brings an informed reader's perspective to lively conversation and in-depth dialogs about all things literary.
Nancy Pearl, author of the best-selling "Book Lust" series, creator of the internationally recognized program "If All of Seattle Read the Same Book" (which became "Seattle Reads"), and model for the world-famous Archee McPhee "Librarian Action Figure," is host of Book Lust with Nancy Pearl on the Seattle Channel.
Nancy Pearl talks with Brad Bigelow about his new biography, "Virginia Faulkner: A Life in Two Acts," which revisits the life of a once-promising American writer, editor, and overlooked literary figure. Bigelow traces Faulkner’s rise as a writer and the personal struggles that reshaped her path. The Book Lust conversation also explores Bigelow’s lifelong fascination with neglected books, forgotten writers, and the compelling lives that continue to draw him to biography.
