Welcome back bookends! Our November book club pick is the incredible, weird and wonderful debut novel Isaac and the Egg. We were so pleased to have Bobby Palmer (Freelance Journalist and author of Isaac and the Egg) on to chat about his work, 80's pop culture references, men's mental health and much, much more. He is every bit as funny and brilliant as his book, we hope you love this conversation.
