James McBride on 'The Heaven & Earth Grocery Store' (Get Lit)

All Of It with Alison Stewart | Oct 2, 2023

We air highlights from our September Get Lit with All Of It book club event with National Book Award-winner James McBride. We spent the month reading his acclaimed new novel, The Heaven & Earth Grocery Store, which tells the story of Black and Jewish communities in Pottstown, Pennsylvania who come together to protect a Deaf child from institutionalization. McBride speaks about the book, and takes questions from our audience.
