• Sam Sussman, BOY FROM THE NORTH COUNTRY: A Novel

  Debut author Sam Sussman joins Zibby to discuss BOY FROM THE NORTH COUNTRY, a searingly tender mother-son story, and Zibby’s Book Club pick for October. Inspired by the author’s own uncertain celebrity paternity, the book follows Evan, a young man grappling with love, loss, and the mystery of his father’s identity—rumored to be Bob Dylan—while caring for his mother during her final months. Sam reveals how the novel draws deeply from his own life and his late mother’s story, weaving together themes of grief, inheritance, art, and the many forms of love.Purchase on Bookshop: https://bit.ly/3HTy7J2Share, rate, & review the podcast, and follow Zibby on Instagram @zibbyowens!JOIN ME!
