Susan Orlean: The Library Book
Podcast: Wicked Words - A True Crime Talk Show with Kate Winkler DawsonRating: Explicit Published On: Mon Apr 06 2026
Description: Author Susan Orlean wrote a best-selling book years ago that you’ve probably heard of: The Orchid Thief. It was made into a movie called Adaptation. Susan has now written another book—this one about an unexpected crime that might not have been a crime at all. A fire in the LA Public Library destroyed more than 400,000 books in 1986. Did they find out what caused it? Or who? Susan tells me the story in her book, The Library Book.
