Episode 70 of The Tideline, with Tara Thorne, is published.

Anna Quon is the author of three novels. The first two, Migration and Low, feature the characters of Joan and Adriana, sisters of a sort. In her third, the brand-new Where the Silver River Ends (Invisible Publishing), Quon centres a wandering Joan in Bratislava, Slovkia, on the heels of a sudden exit from Budapest. There she meets a young Roma man who guides her through the city, and helps her find a job all while dealing with constant racism against his people. It’s a story of of mixed-race identity, systemic oppression, family reconciliation, and forging one’s own path. Anna stops by the show to discuss the book’s writing—beginning with a summer in Slovakia 30 years back—using sensitivity readers, and what’s next.
