Sue Miller, MONOGAMY Sep 09, 2020

Show notes

Legendary bestselling author Sue Miller's critically acclaimed, elegant, and sharply realistic new account of the contemporary family is just as powerful as her previous blockbuster hits. This novel, about a couple, their marriage, and what happens when one of them suddenly passes away, is one of the most accurate and searing records of what it’s like to deal with a spouse who passes away in the night — or the loss of any loved one. She and Zibby talked about quasi-monogamy, bringing characters to life, and the intricacies of grief.

Zibby Talks About Her Family's Recent Losses Sep 05, 2020

Show notes

In this short, heartfelt, tearjerker of an episode (you might need some Kleenex), Zibby shares her own thoughts and feelings during a tragic time. Her husband Kyle’s mother, Susan Felice Owens, and grandmother Marie (“Nene”) Felice, both passed away recently from COVID. This is Zibby's direct outreach to podcast listeners to share what she’s been going through and to hopefully help those who have lost anyone they have loved, too…. (and to encourage everyone to protect themselves from COVID).
