Mona Awad on ROUGE
Podcast: Poured OverPublished On: Tue Sep 12 2023
Description: "… this was a book about beauty, and I wanted it to be very honest." In Mona Awad's Rouge, gothic family-drama meets fairy tale (with a hint of horror) as a young woman navigates the world of youth and beauty in the aftermath of her mother's death. Awad joins us to talk about how her obsession with skincare led to writing this book, creating a mother and daughter dynamic, the importance of writing with a distinct voice and more with Miwa Messer, host of Poured Over. We end this episode with TBR Topoff book recommendations from Marc and Madyson. This episode of Poured Over was produced and hosted by Miwa Messer and mixed by Harry Liang.
