New York Times bestselling author and National Book Award Finalist Bonnie Jo Campbell joins BOOKSTORM Podcast to discuss THE WATERS, her newest release! This novel takes place on an island in the Great Massasauga Swamp―an area known as “The Waters” to the residents of nearby Whiteheart, Michigan―herbalist and eccentric Hermine “Herself” Zook has healed the local women of their ailments for generations. She’s also raised three very different young women in this wild environment. We talked about the needs, the dreams, the heartache, the obstacles, the perseverance…and the victories of being a woman. We discussed our longing for home. We talked about the power of choice, even unwise choices. We talked about the gritty reality of this island, as well as its mystical elements. The island perhaps represents an ancient way of thinking, one connected to the earth, but disappearing fast. We talked about the symbolism of the poisons that lurked throughout the story: the venom of rattlers, but also environmental toxins, unforgiveness, and rage. And how did the garden of Eden come up? Join us and see!
