We're back with new episodes on February 7! The New York Times called The Green Parrot “A strange and beautiful story, with the faintly arid charm of a miniature painted on the cover of a seventeenth-century snuff box.” That’s just one of the many reasons Amy and Kim couldn’t wait to discuss the provocative and brilliant author Princess Marthe Bibesco and her 1924 gem of a novel. Joining them is this week’s guest, book publicist and jewelry designer Lauren Cerand.
Discussed in this episode:
The Green Parrot by Marthe Bibesco
The Eight Paradises by Marthe Bibesco
“A Rose that Held a Princess’s Secret” (Mental Floss)
