For author Jade Chang, the vibe of summer isn’t encapsulated at the pool or by the beach, but in time itself — “and how time kind of stops.” In today’s episode, she joins
All Things Considered’s Ailsa Chang to discuss the books she recommends to help keep the summer season alive, even as fall approaches. Jade Chang recommends books like
The Corn King and the Spring Queen by Naomi Mitchison and
Stories of the Sahara by Taiwanese author Sanmao. Then, they discuss Jade Chang’s novel
What a Time to Be Alive.
