New People (with guest and author Danzy Senna)

This week, we chat with Danzy Senna about her novel 'New People.'And as always, we close the show with recommendations:
Danzy recommends A Separation by Katie Kitamura. "It was such a pleasurable read but sort of unsettling in all the ways that I like." Danzy has also been reading through novels by French writer Emmanuel Carrère. "Class Trip is an amazing novel."
MJ recommends Release by Patrick Ness. The book is a day in the life of a queer kid in Seattle as he is dealing with a going away party, issues at work, etc. "I've been in this queer YA binge, and this book has been so good. It's been so good."
And you can read Danzy's essay about Oreo, "An Overlooked Classic About the Comedy of Race," here.
