    The Author of The Starless Sea
    on The Literary Life with Mitchell Kaplan

    “The whole thing has been so lovely. I think the best part has been getting to talk to people who’ve now visited a place that lived in my head, and my head alone for a very long time…and their enthusiasm for it.”

    In this episode of The Literary Life with Mitchell Kaplan, Erin Morgenstern joins Mitchell to discuss her latest novel, The Starless Sea, out now from Doubleday, life as a multi-media artist, and how her love of video games inspires her writing.
