Episode 93: My Salinger Year and a Second Chance at Love ft. Joanna Rakoff
Calling all romantics, writers, and memoir lovers–this episode is for you! When Joanna Rakoff, best selling author of A Fortunate Age and My Salinger Year (now also a movie starring Sigourney Weaver and Margaret Qualley), took a job at a storied New York literary agency back in her twenties she had no idea her experience there answering letters addressed to J.D. Salinger about Catcher in the Rye and assisting the author himself would shape her life for decades to come. In this episode we dive deep into the book that would change everything for her career and Joanna tells the story of marrying the wrong man, reuniting with the right man, and how they found a life together long after she thought they had missed their chance.
Joanna Rakoff is the author of the bestselling novel A Fortunate Age, winner of the Goldberg Prize for Fiction and the Elle Readers’ Prize, and the international bestseller My Salinger Year, which has been published in twenty countries, and recently adapted into a feature film starring Sigourney Weaver and Margaret Qualley. She has written frequently for the New York Times, Vogue, the Los Angeles Times, and many other publications.
