On this episode I’m chatting with author Isa Arsén about Shoot the Moon, which tells the story of a brilliant but lonely NASA secretary and her relentless drive to live a big life in a world that would keep her small. Fans of Lessons in Chemistry will want to run to pick this one up!
Heartbreaking . . . Arsén asks big questions about love and duty, the human cost of scientific inquiry, and the difficulty of moving on from past trauma–but she also tells a cinematic story of fierce dedication and blazing love. –Shelf Awareness
