Joshua Henkin joins Zibby to discuss his latest novel, Morningside Heights, which took him eight years and three thousand pages to write. Joshua shares how the story was inspired by his own family's experience with Alzheimer's and his childhood growing up on the Upper West Side. The two also talk about Joshua's MFA program, how growing up in an academic family shaped his career trajectory, and why he wanted to tell this story over the span of so many years.
