Brit Bennett talks to host Mary Laura Philpott about THE VANISHING HALF on A WORD ON WORDS

"Binaries are boring. 'Is this character good or are they bad?' or 'Was this choice right or was it wrong?' — those are uninteresting questions, because they’re simple questions, and that’s not the ways in which any of us move through the world." Brit Bennett talks to NPT host Mary Laura Philpott about THE VANISHING HALF.
