The newest episode of the Criminal Podcast [#75 - The Gatekeeper <- Google Play link] features a wonderful interview with Marilyn Stasio, author of the New York Times Book Review "Crime Column." I enjoyed it and thought you might, too.
Here's the episode description:
"I keep saying 'where's the body? Kill someone,'" Marilyn Stasio told us. She reads at least 200 crime novels a year to determine which are worthy of her prestigious "Crime Column" in the New York Times Book Review. We talk with her about crime as entertainment - and why people are so addicted to the genre that she can't stay away from: "My fingers just itch when I see something that's says 'murder.'" You can find more of Marilyn Stasio's thoughts on crime fiction in her column. We want to know what your favorite crime novel is. It can be new or old. Write to us on Twitter @criminalshow, Facebook @ThisIsCriminal, or email us at [email protected]. Criminal is a proud member of Radiotopia from PRX.
