Description
"To me, this book, in a lot of ways, the core intellectual arc of the book is this journey of me figuring out what it means to be American." Zibby is joined by investigative journalist and editor at BuzzFeed News Albert Samaha to talk about his new memoir, Concepcion, which is a National Book Critics Circle Award finalist. Albert and Zibby talk about the ways in which the shape of the narrative changed over the five years it took to write it, which moments in recent history have had the greatest effect on Albert's family, and how he determined which memories made it into the book.Purchase on Amazon or Bookshop.Amazon: https://amzn.to/35KUk91Bookshop: https://bit.ly/37hH3FrSubscribe to Zibby's weekly newsletter here.
