BLR BookTalk with Author Morgan Talty
BLR BookTalks bring together writers and editors for wide-ranging conversations about craft, creativity, and life. This BookTalk features Morgan Talty, the national bestselling and award-winning author of Fire Exit and Night of the Living Rez, in conversation by BLR editor-in-chief Danielle Ofri and BLR fiction editor Doris W. Cheng.
Morgan’s book Fire Exit was the inaugural selection for BLR‘s Book Club. Fire Exit is a masterful and unforgettable story of family, legacy, bloodlines, culture and inheritance, and what, if anything, we owe one another.

BLR’s editor-in-chief Danielle Ofri moderates a conversation with Kate Edgar, Dr. Sacks’ longtime writing collaborator and Executive Director of the Oliver Sacks Foundation, and Bill Hayes, partner of the late Dr. Sacks and co-editor of the posthumous books.
Danielle, Kate and Bill talk about the new Oliver Sacks documentary, about Oliver’s life, his writings, his patients, his memoir, and what it was like to know this unique and complex person.
