E72: V. Castro Talks La Llorona and "The Haunting of Alejandra"

Today I have V. Castro on the show for the fourth time! We talk about her gorgeous book, THE HAUNTING OF ALEJANDRA, the trials of motherhood, generational trauma, and Depeche Mode. You’ll see why. I do want to offer a trigger warning for discussion of postpartum depression and intrusive thoughts, but it’s an important and thoughtful conversation, and a topic that is very personal to V. Castro. You can find her books in my⁠ ⁠online bookshop, where every purchase you make helps both the podcast as well as independent bookstores nationwide. That’s at bookshop.org/shop/sheworeblack. You can also help the show by following me on⁠ instagram⁠,⁠ facebook⁠ and⁠ twitter⁠, and leaving me a review wherever you get your podcasts.
