In this wide-ranging interview for the Thalia Book Club, writer Elissa Schappell interviews author Kaye Gibbons for the release of her book The Life All Around Me by Ellen Foster. After a dramatic reading from the book by actress Andrea Marcovicci, Gibbons discusses why she returned to the beloved Ellen Foster, her delight in writing the character, her writing process and rituals, and her own troubled family history. The evening also includes a series of edifying questions from the audience about Oprah’s involvement with Ellen Foster and more.
