The Orchard (w/ Author Kristina Gorcheva-Newberry)
About this episode
Show Notes:
Kristina's Website, The Orchard
This week, Matt and Cameron do something a little unusual - for once, they’re intentionally talking around a work rather than examining it in detail. That’s because - in a Tipsy Tolstoy first - we’re being joined by the author of The Orchard, Kristina Gorcheva-Newberry. We had a wide-ranging conversation that covers her journey as an author, the inspirations and thoughts that led to The Orchard in its current form, as well as what’s next for Gorcheva-Newberry. It was a super fascinating conversation so you don’t want to miss out! Grab your blackest bread and even blacker tea, then be sure to tune in!
Major themes: The Time Between Dog and Wolf, Re-writing the past, Toasting to art
