Book Lust with Nancy Pearl
Leading authors on life and writingAbout Book Lust with Nancy Pearl
Seattle's own "action figure librarian," best-selling author, and literary critic Nancy Pearl sits down each month with authors, poets, and other literary figures for conversations about books, reading, and the process and art of writing. There's no one better qualified than Nancy, who brings an informed reader's perspective to lively conversation and in-depth dialogs about all things literary.
Nancy Pearl, author of the best-selling "Book Lust" series, creator of the internationally recognized program "If All of Seattle Read the Same Book" (which became "Seattle Reads"), and model for the world-famous Archee McPhee "Librarian Action Figure," is host of Book Lust with Nancy Pearl on the Seattle Channel.
Nancy Pearl talks with legal scholar and author Michelle Adams about her new book "The Containment: Detroit, the Supreme Court, and the Battle for Racial Justice in the North." Adams' book dives into the landmark Milliken v. Bradley case, which haulted efforts to desegregate Detroit schools in 1974. "The Containment" is a gripping legal and historical drama about policies that shaped a city—and a nation—with a few unexpected heroes along the way.
