My guest this week is award-winning author Katherine J. Chen. Katherine’s work has been published in The New York Times, the Los Angeles Review of Books, and Literary Hub, among others. Katherine is drawn to stories about powerful women and her latest novel, “Joan: a Novel of Joan of Arc,” is no exception. But this Joan is not the Joan you think you know. This is no meek marytr. Katherine’s Joan is strong and powerful, filled with rage, prone to hubris, and shaped by a relationship to God that many have called controversial.

From the moment I read this book, months ago, I knew I needed to speak with its creator. In our conversation, Katherine shares why she was draw to tell a story that’s been told before in a way no one’s ever told it, and so much more. Then, she treats us to a reading of “Joan: A Novel of Joan of Arc.”

About Us
Since well before Victor Hugo looked up at Notre Dame and thought, "Huh... what if a hunchback lived in there?" authors have been inspired by Paris. The Storytime in Paris podcast will help keep this tradition alive with short interviews and readings from your favorite contemporary authors with a French connection.
 
Every episode will feature five questions, asked by you, our authors' biggest fans, and answered live on air. Then, our authors will treat us to a reading of an excerpt from their book. Who knows? Maybe you'll even be inspired to write your own Great French Novel. Happy listening!
