About this episode
[REBROADCAST FROM May 1, 2026] The new novel from Cynthia D'Aprix Sweeney tells the story of a woman who begins an affair in 1970s Rochester, with lasting consequences for the rest of her family. Sweeney discusses Lake Effect, the April Get Lit with All Of It book club selection. In the spirit of family, our musical guests were Elizabeth Mitchell and Daniel Littleton, who founded the band Ida in Brooklyn in the 1990s. They were joined at the event by their daughter Storey Littleton, who grew up playing in the family band and recently released her debut solo album, At A Diner.
