Markus Zusak, the award winning author of several young adult titles including I am the messenger, was on National Public Radio's Diane Rehm show this morning. It was a great discussion of his new book The Book Thief, which has received starred reveiws from SLJ, Booklist, Publishers Weekly and Kirkus. He also spoke about his writing process, and the concept of young adult books. And he has an awesome Australian accent. Sigh. You can listen to it on Real Audio or Windows Media. Enjoy!
