Nina Stibbe, WENT TO LONDON, TOOK THE DOG: The Diary of a 60-Year-Old Runaway
Zibby is joined by beloved British author and National Book Award winner Nina Stibbe to discuss WENT TO LONDON, TOOK THE DOG, an endlessly funny, blissfully gossipy, and enviably well-observed memoir of a woman changing her life at 60.

The two also discuss the emotional risk of writing a memoir and the often-dismissed importance of women’s inner lives. P...
