Love Maine Radio With Dr. Lisa Belisle

How do we understand those who are different from ourselves, particularly when these are people we may have never met? Maine authors of both fiction and non-fiction can help us bridge cultural divides. Today, we speak with journalist and Telling Room cofounder, Sara Corbett, who writes the true story of Amanda Lindhout, another journalist who was held in captivity for more than a year by Somali extremists in the book, A House in the Sky. We also spend time with Eleanor Morse who explores her own experience with South African apartheid in the novel, White Dog Fell from the Sky. https://www.themainemag.com/radio/2014/03/cultural-divide-130/
