Maggie Smith, YOU COULD MAKE THIS PLACE BEAUTIFUL: A Memoir

Bestselling poet and repeat MDHTTRB guest Maggie Smith joins Zibby to discuss You Could Make This Place Beautiful, a beautiful and heartrending memoir-in-vignettes about how she reckoned with her past and found herself again after the disintegration of her marriage. Maggie discusses her book’s unique structure and style. She also talks about her divorce, parenting, the power of home and community, her hobbies, her next few projects (one is an anti-anxiety bedtime story!), and the writers who inspired her to take risks in her own work.  Zibby loved Maggie’s memoir so much that it is her May pick for Zibby’s Book Club!
