Show Notes

Jenny Offill’s new novel, “Weather,” is about a family, and a nation, in crisis. Lizzie Benson slid into her job as a librarian without a traditional degree, but this gives her a vantage point from which to practice her other calling. Benson is a fake shrink which sees her advice grow increasingly apocalyptic and unhinged.
