Novelist Jami Attenberg’s new memoir I Came All This Way to Meet You takes readers behind the scenes of her creative life, from scraping by in Brooklyn before it became a cultural phenomenon and going on book tour in a station wagon to becoming a bestselling author and finding peace in New Orleans.
In this episode, we talk to Jami about the rise of Brooklyn, the freedom of the early internet, the changing book business, and the best dysfunctional families in pop culture.
