Show Notes

In Elisa Albert’s highly-anticipated new novel, “Human Blues,” musician Aviva Rosner’s course cracks and crumbles the harder she pounds the pavement. Aviva wants to have a child. But, she wants to conceive on her own terms – though those terms become increasingly irrelevant with each missed opportunity.
