Guests: Max Gries, Brianna

It’s a Mother’s Day-themed show as Kathryn Kysar, Ka Vang, and Morgan Grayce Willow join us in the studio to talk about their new book Riding Shotgun: Women Write about Their Mothers, an acclaimed and surprisingly candid collection of essays whose other contributors include Faith Sullivan, Wang Ping, Sheila O’Connor, Shannon Olson, Tai Coleman, Jonis Agee, and others.

Poet Jane Levin also reads from her new poetry chapbook, Legacy, which focuses on GLBT, Jewish, and cancer-survivor issues.

In the second half, Matthew Karanian calls in to talk about his extraordinary travel book: Armenia Karabagh, The Stone Garden Travel Guide.
