Chatter on Books

“Navigation”

Torie and David welcome back Mike Croley, award winning author, teacher and golf fanatic. They break down the sale (thank heaven) of the Washington football team, guess who the best-seller on Time’s most influential list is, and play “Can we save this classic?” Cannibalism always helps. Thanks to his friendship with Mike, PEN/Faulkner finalist Matthew Salesses zooms in to share “Sense of Wonder,” his fictional take on the triumphs and challenges of NBA star Jeremy Lin’s ascendancy.  Ron Charles of The Washington Post describes it as “a remarkable feat of artistic prowess.” We call it a blast to read and about so much more than sports and entertainment.
