Next up in our National Book Festival author podcast series is the incomparable Joyce Carol Oates. Book Festival co-director Susan Manus talks to Oates about childhood, chickens and a divided America.

Listen to the podcast here.

Every Tuesday and Thursday we’ll be sharing conversations with authors who will be presenting at this year’s National Book Festival on Sept. 24. Joyce Carol Oates will appear on the Fiction II Stage sponsored by AARP. Make sure to visit this site, then download and listen to a new conversation with a terrific author twice a week until the festival.
