Ep 80 - Christine Wells, “The Paris Gown”

Welcome to the finale of the summer season of Storytime in Paris! In honor of this illustrious event, I will be speaking with NYTimes bestselling author Christine Wells. Christine is known for her lavish historical fiction and her latest novel, “The Paris Gown,” takes us to Paris in the 1950s. When best friends Claire, Gina, and Margot scatter to the far corners of the world and then find themselves back in Paris, it might just be a Christian Dior gown that reunites and heals them all. In our conversation, Christine shares who inspired her main characters, what she learned about Christian Dior that surprised her, what draws her to historical fiction, and more. Would Christine like to go back in time?

The Storytime in Paris podcast will help keep this tradition alive with short interviews and readings from your favorite contemporary authors with a French connection.   Every episode will feature five questions, asked by you, our authors' biggest fans, and answered live on air. Then, our authors will treat us to a reading of an excerpt from their book. Who knows? Maybe you'll even be inspired to write your own Great French Novel. Happy listening!
