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 speaks with author Erika Swyler about her new genre-bending novel, "We Lived on the Horizon." It's a little bit speculative fiction, but it's also mystery, sci-fi, romance, political thriller, and horror, too. The book takes place in a thought-provoking world where AI is in charge and sacrifice is rewarded. They discuss AI and robots in fiction, how Swyler builds characters and stories, and how they would rearrange the library if they each had their own way.
