Hello readers! I am a fiction writer in Minneapolis, Minnesota, where I live with my husband and rescue pup. I love to comb through old newspapers for story ideas. This is how I was inspired to write The Raffle Baby, which is based on a shocking true story of the Great Depression. When you read the book, I hope you feel a lyrical momentum that moves you, whimsy that delights you, and characters who take root in your heart. Some of my favorite novels (I stopped at five) are: 🔷 Year of Wonder, Geraldine Brooks 🔷 The Last Days of Dogtown, Anita Diamant 🔷 News of the World, Paulette Jiles 🔷 The Two Pound Tram, William Newton 🔷 Zorrie, Laird Hunt Sign up for news and updates at www.ruthtalbot.com, where you may also read an excerpt from The Raffle Baby.
