Book Lust with Nancy Pearl episodes

Northwest author Erica Bauermeister discusses the inspiration behind her new novel "The Scent Keeper," a unique coming-of-age story of an enchanted childhood spent on a remote island, families lost and found, and how a fragrance conjures memories capable of shaping the course of our lives. The bestselling author of "The School of Essential Ingredients," Bauermeister - who published her first novel at 50 - talks with host Nancy Pearl about her path to writing and the influence of motherhood, shares the contents of her personal lending library, and offers a surprising hint of what she's considering writing next.
