David A. Robertson and his little monsters go to uncomfortable places
If I'm going to really reach people—you have to lay yourself bare. All of it. And go to places that you don't feel comfortable.
Host Michael Tamblyn spoke with David A. Robertson, author of many books including the Governor General’s award-winning When We Were Alone, and On the Trapline, both illustrated by Julie Flett. He’s also the author of the ongoing series for young readers, The Misewa Saga. And he’s the author of the 2022 novel for adults, A Theory of Crows, as well as a memoir from 2020 called Black Water: Family, Legacy, and Blood Memory.
David and Michael spoke about his new book, All the Little Monsters: How I Learned to Live with Anxiety. In it, David tells the story of the mental health struggles he’s faced all his life.
