Today we welcome author Stephen Kiernan to discuss his novel, "The Glass Chateau"—a story that journeys beyond battlefields to post-World War II France, capturing the life of Asher, an assassin turned artist inspired by Marc Chagall. Within the fictional town of Clovide, this narrative explores love, loss, and the transformative power of stained glass art. Learn how Kiernan's journalistic roots, decorated with accolades like the George Polk Award, fuel his drive to craft nuanced characters and emotionally impactful stories.

As we unravel the fabric of Kiernan's novel, we don't just stop at the details of war-torn France. Stephen Kiernan grants us a glimpse into his upcoming book, "The Finder," challenging the norms of heroism and representation in modern literature. Dive into this episode to explore how historical landmarks, like the cathedral in Reims, serve as narrative backdrops, and ponder with us on the evolving trends and necessities of WWII fiction in the present day. It's not just a tale of war; it's a lens through which we explore unity, healing, and the multifaceted human condition.
