Susan Orlean, ON ANIMALS

Journalist and bestselling author Susan Orlean joins Zibby to discuss her new collection, On Animals, which was inspired in part by her quarantine puppy. Susan and Zibby talk about Susan's Literati Book Club, how the underlying question of her collected work is "What is it like to coexist on a planet with these other creatures?," and why this collection was a nice go-between her last novel and her upcoming memoir.
