The Interpreter is a beautiful book about the end of the war in Vietnam and one interpreter’s story as his country is torn apart and remade over and over throughout his lifetime. David K. Shipler is arguably one of the greatest journalists of our time. A veteran reporter who wrote about Russia, Vietnam, and Israel (to name a few), he has a Pulitzer to his name and his non-fiction books are legendary. I mean, the man ran a foreign desk for the New York Times and taught at Princeton. So why write a book of fiction? We don’t know, but we are so glad he did. Tune in to find out why. Our bookstore is Charlie’s local, so you don’t want to miss it.
