Bay Area author Molly Giles joins us to discuss her newest short-story collection, “All the Wrong Places.” Described as a “wild and adventurous read,” the stories’ settings range from Hawaii to Ireland, but often emphasize a sense of displacement in the characters. Giles’ debut collection “Rough Translations” was nominated for the Pulitzer Prize.

Guests:

Molly Giles, author and professor emerita at the University of Arkansas and San Francisco State
