Hello, hello, hello, everybody. You're listening to the Earful Tower podcast. My name is Oliver G. I think you knew that already. Today, we've got a good, fun episode with Kara Black, the author, the New York Times best-selling author. I'm sure you've heard of her before. She's a friend of the show. She's been on this podcast in the past. And this week we're talking about her brand new book, which is called Three Hours in Paris. If you're expecting an Amy LaDuke book, forget it. This is a whole new style for her. I was just going to say what it's about, but that's what the whole conversation is. It's about the new book. We're talking about the challenges of researching the second world war

and how to set sort of historical fiction in paris at the time all that kind of stuff we recorded

it via zoom from her place in san francisco um but yeah that's all you need to know i think remember

to hang around at the end if you want to hear some fun reviews and emails that have come in.

And on a personal note, thank you very much to all the Patreon supporters of this show, because without you, this wouldn't exist.

That's a guarantee. I would have stopped, I don't know, two and a half years ago.

So patreon.com slash the yearful tower, loads of bonus content,

including the scroll for this episode,

all the things that Kara mentions,

pictures of Hitler and so on,

it's all there.

You can find it on Patreon.

So three hours in Paris,

Kara Black,

let's get into it.

Here comes the jingle.

Here we go.

Kara Black, hello.

Hello, Oliver.

How are you?

I'm really well.

It's lovely to see you again.
