The Glass Hotel | Emily St. John Mandel | NPT

A WORD ON WORDS, Nashville Public Television’s Emmy Award-winning reboot of its classic series, is a collection of three-minute interviews about books and other literary topics. Filmed in locations around Middle Tennessee, the series continues a tradition established by legendary journalist John Seigenthaler for more than 40 years.

Emily St. John Mandel joins us today for a stay at home edition of NPT's A WORD ON WORDS to talk about THE GLASS HOTEL, the follow-up to her massive breakout hit, and one of my all-time favorites, STATION ELEVEN, which was a finalist for a National Book Award and the PEN/Faulkner Award, and won the 2015 Arthur C. Clarke Award among other honours, and has been translated into 33 languages.
