The Unheard


My friend, Josh, wrote a book. We worked together in Zambia some dozen years ago for the Peace Corps and he has written a great story of his experience as a volunteer in Mununga, a remote village in the northwestern part of the country. The task of writing a whole book seems so huge to me and I really have no idea what is involved in finding an agent and a publisher. It can't be easy. Yet he did it; he did all of it, and a box landed on my porch from Amazon and there was the book. How cool is that?

This morning Josh was interviewed on NPR's Weekend Edition by Scott Simon. The link to the broadcast is here where there is also an excerpt from the book and other links to more audio and video clips.
