Kate Woodworth on Dealing with an Island's Worth of Points of View

Woodworth's LITTLE GREAT ISLAND releases May 2025

Today we get to hear from Kate Woodworth whose novel, Little Great Island, will be released in May of 2025. Kate and I will be talking about managing multiple points of view—the book has eleven!—which she refers to “as playing three dimensional chess in the dark.”
