Martie Nees Record
Martie Nees Record asked Chris Bohjalian:

I appreciate your humbleness, and of course your talent. You can't compartmentalize those traits. LOL?

Chris Bohjalian Oh, I think they are both in tiny cubicles. No need for a container ship for either, alas.

Amy Cuomo asked Chris Bohjalian:

The Light and the Ruins is one of the most impressive and thrilling books I've read. (Actually, I listened to it on CD. . .) Can you share what inspired you to write this story?

Wendy
Wendy asked Chris Bohjalian:

I started The Guest Room yesterday and I totally love it! I am half way done and I do not want to put it down! But I do not want it to end because then it will be done! I have read all your books and some are more liked than others but this one will be in my memory bank for a long long time as one of your very best. I love that you always write about very different situations. So what will your next book be!?!?
