Chuckanut Radio Hour with Special Guest Alexandra Fuller, Leaving Before the Rains Come
From the critically acclaimed author of Don't Lets Go to the Dogs Tonight: An African Childhood, and Cocktail Hour Under the Tree of Forgetfulness, is special guest Alexandra Fuller for her new book, Leaving Before the Rains Come. Fuller takes on the rise and fall of her own marriage and addresses how her father shaped her view of the world. In hopes of understanding what went wrong and finding ways to rebuild her life after a painful divorce, Fuller turns to her African past for answers. As she explores the vibrant memories of her childhood, she hunts for clues as to what it means to live life completely and without regret.
