08: Chelsea C. – THE WALLCREEPER (2014) by Nell Zink

BUSHWICK, N.Y. — Chelsea, 25, was born in Hawaii, grew up in California, and lives, paints, and works in New York City. She first read The Wallcreeper "one or two" years ago; I finished it a week ago. In this episode we consider the present-day relevance (or lack thereof) of traditional marital monogamy, Zink's significance as a female novelist, and how considerations of "female novelists" might detract from their significance as "novelists." Nell Zink was born in 1964 in California. She has been married twice.
