SUMMARY:Craft\, Violence\, and the Art of Storytelling with Rod Davis\, John Hart\, and Dennis McCarthy
DESCRIPTION:Join us in conversation with novelists JOHN HART\, ROD DAVIS\, and DENNIS McCARTHY. Hart’s latest novel\, The Unwilling\, is a thriller framed around the consequences of the Vietnam War for those who served. It is described as “crime fiction at its most raw\,” which aptly describes the work of novelist Rod Davis as well. Publisher’s Weekly describes Davis’s 2020 novel East of Texas\, West of Hell as a “crime powerhouse–a maelstrom of meth-dealing\, human trafficking\, and white supremacy. Davis is a great guide through gritty Southern territory.” Dennis McCarthy’s novel\, The Gospel According to Billy the Kid\, moves an American tale of violence and redemption west to New Mexico. Of this debut novel\, fellow Greensboro Bound author Ron Rash says\, “this novel does what all of the best ones do: we enter them\, but they also enter us\, and they stay.” Hosts BRYAN GIEMZA and AMY WELDON talk craft\, violence\, and the art of storytelling with our three authors.

Davis has received numerous awards as a magazine editor and writer.
