Zibby speaks to author Amy Fusselman about The Mean$, a breezy and hysterical new novel about a stay-at-home Manhattan mom who is hell-bent on purchasing a Hamptons house (or shipping container, if necessary!). Amy talks about the inspiration behind the story, her fascinating protagonist (Shelly Means–disgruntled, enraged, and deep in capitalist delusion), and the themes she enjoyed exploring–wealth, desire, and the value of a mom’s unpaid labor. She also describes her journey to becoming an author and shares her best advice for aspiring authors.Purchase on Amazon or Bookshop.Amazon: bit.ly/3HN0xSlBookshop: bit.ly/3FHOlQcSubscribe to Zibby's weekly newsletter here.Purchase Moms Don't Have Time to Read Books merch here.
