In this week’s episode of The Bookshop at the End of the Internet, Talia Carner, award-winning author of historical fiction based upon true, but little-known facts, discusses her newest release, The Third Daughter. It is the story of a young woman lured from Russia to Buenos Aries in the late 1800’s by a false promise of marriage, only to find herself forced into prostitution by a legally-sanctioned union of traffickers called the Zwi Migdal, which operated with impunity on a global scale for nearly 70 years. Talia’s books involve social issues that feel as relevant today as they would have in the time period in which her stories are set. Tune in to hear Talia discuss her writing journey, the use of fiction as a vehicle to inform and educate readers about challenging social issues, and how she found the courage to write such difficult stories.
