  • Carl Hiaasen
    Books, Beach, & Beyond’s first LIVE podcast recording was June 14th at the Nantucket Book Festival where Elin and Tim were in conversation with best-selling author Carl Hiaasen, author of Fever Beach. The three talk about Carl’s career as a journalist turned novelist, setting his novels in the state of Florida, writing satire, his outrageous characters, and writing for both adults and children. Carl discusses how publishing has changed in his long career, engaging in politics, the exuberant writing and humor in his novels, his advice to graduates, and his take on Hollywood adaptations. The audience at the Nantucket Book Festival was in stitches and you will be, too.Carl Hiaasen Books:Double WhammyTourist SeasonFever BeachAssume the Worst: The Graduation Speech You’ll Never HearHootOther Books Mentioned:The Hardy Boys by Franklin W DixonNancy Drew by Carolyn KeeneDavy Barry booksKaren Russell booksErik Larson booksMartin Amos booksChristopher Moore books Follow/Subscribe to the 'Books, Beach, & Beyond' podcast now to stay current on new episodes.And find us on Instagram at @booksbeachandbeyondHappy Reading!
