Bookshop Interview with Author Marina Brown (Episode #107)

2/24/2021

0 Comments

 
In this week’s episode of The Bookshop at the End of the Internet, author Marina Brown discusses her latest novel of historical literary fiction, The Orphan of Pitigliano. This novel won the 2020 Published Book of the Year award, as well as a gold medal, in the Royal Palm Literary Awards competition. It is a sweeping story involving a small Italian village, Jews in Italy during WWII, Etruscan grave robbers, a modern-day medical mystery and old-world superstitions, including il malocchio (the Evil Eye). Marina did an amazing amount of research for this novel. She worked with a noted archeologist. She became fluent in Italian in order to conduct interviews, and she learned firsthand how to carry out a grave robbery. In this episode, I’ll chat with Marina about her writing journey, how she enjoys watching her characters come alive on the page, and how she believes creativity is like an aquifer that can feed a number of artistic expressions (of which she is proof, being not only a writer but also a cellist, a professional ballet dance and a painter).
