(Airdate: February 27, 2024) Cris welcomes Port Townsend author Adrianne Harun to Booklover’s Cafe to talk about her newest novel On the Way to the End of the World. This work of literary fiction has been chosen as the 2024 Port Townsend Community Read. The story is set in a milltown on the peninsula in the Spring of 1963.
