Summary: This week, I’m interviewing author Chanel Cleeton about her new book, Next Year in Havana, a dual-timeline mystery and romance set in part against the Cuban revolution. Don’t worry - no spoilers! We talk about the cover, which we hosted a reveal for because it’s simply stunning. We discuss the origin of the book, the ways in which her family influenced the story, and the intricacies created by including political nuance and multiple historical perspectives in multiple timelines. Chanel tells us about some of this historical research she did while writing this book, and of course, she shares what she’s reading.
