Rekindled: Emily Neuberger in Conversation with Garrard Conley
On Hamilton, Racism, and Dreams Coming True
On this episode of Rekindled, Garrard Conley talks with Emily Neuberger, author of the debut novel A Tender Thing, set under the dazzling lights of late 1950s Broadway, where a controversial new musical pushes the boundaries of love, legacy, and art. Neuberger talks about complicating people’s views of musicals, relationships that live in the gray area between abusive and fair, and the bodied experience of coming to terms with your own gifts. Please buy A Tender Thing from your favorite local bookstore, or through Bookshop!
