Margo asked Charles Graeber:

Are you terrified of hospitals after all your research for this book?

Charles Graeber Not really. Or rather, differently. I'm far more afraid of fire than I was ever before. And more conscious of what can go wrong, and the people inside the uniforms. ButI don't assume anything about the institutions themselves. And in fact, my takeaway was about both the exceptionally bad and the exceptionally good, or rather, the commonly good people working in these places, how much they care and how much they give. What I don't worry about it a serial killer. You can't worry about these things.

Carolyn

Carolyn asked Charles Graeber:

The Good Nurse was published in 2014. Is there any updates on the 'characters' of the book? Have you spoken to Charlie? Anything new with the hospitals Charlie worked at?

Michael

Michael asked Charles Graeber:

I noticed as I read The Good Nurse that you refer to Charles Cullen as "Charlie" when speaking about him personally. This use of a nickname suggests a familiarity, and even, possibly, a fondness for him. At the same time, I got the sense that Mr.Cullen is a character we, as readers, could not only pity, but for whom we would roll our eyes. Did you, personally, feel these same ways about him?
