Summary

Kathy Cooperman, author of the new novel Crimes Against a Book Club, joins the show to discuss everything from the secret lives of book clubs to her own journey from improv to lawyering to becoming an author. She also tells Jacke about an inspiring Bette Davis movie, some books that she’s loved, and what a move from the East Coast to the West Coast taught her about the way men and women deal with the aging process. Works discussed include: Down and Out in Paris in London by George Orwell The Bedwetter by Sarah Silverman The Sex Lives of Cannibals by Maarten Troost A Shock to the System by Jeremy Brett Mr. Skeffington (with Bette Davis) Do you love literature and the arts?
