Meet the LITERARY LOOKBOOK, a comprehensive but not exhaustive collection of 182 upcoming 2024 releases curated by Kelly Hooker and me.

In this interview, I chat with Robin Oliveira about A Wild and Heavenly Place, how she set out to write an epic love story, creating a strong sense of place, her title and cover, understanding her characters' motivations, shipbuilding and coal mining, and much more.

Robin's recommended reads are:

The General and Julia by Jon Clinch
The Voyage of the Narwal by Andrea Barrett
On the Way to the End of the World by Adrianne Harun
The Poldark series by Winston Graham
