In this episode, I sat down with Julianna Haubner, who my friend and colleague from our college newspaper, the Colby Echo. She is one of the most voracious readers I know and is currently an editor for the publisher Simon & Schuster.

We had a ball talking about E. L. Doctorow's Ragtime (1975), a riveting book about turn of the century New York. We talked about historical fiction, Julianna's job at S&S, and independent bookstores!
