Zibby interviews Liz Michalski about Darling Girl: A Novel of Peter Pan, an evocative and dark retelling of the classic we all know and love that explores motherhood, sacrifice, and grief. Liz describes the inspiration behind the book (it involves a horrifyingly vivid dream and a fascination with blood rejuvenation techniques–have you heard of vampire facials!?). She also talks about her protagonists (a worried mom and an angsty teenage son), her publishing journey, and her next book.
