"People will ask: 'But you love your kids, right?' Of course, I love my kids— that's not the issue. We don't have to always say that when we are talking about how hard it is to be a mother." Karin Tanabe joins Zibby to talk about her sixth novel, A Woman of Intelligence, and how it portrays motherhood in the 1950s. The two discuss some of the shocking historical events that were featured in the story, the influence Karin had on the cover art, and how writing, like all art, requires time and practice.
