Description
Janet
Fitch
discusses
her
book
,
“White
Oleander.”
She
explains
that the
book
follows
the
protagonist
,
Astrid
,
who
is
the
only
child
of a
single
mother
.
Ingrid
,
Astrid’s
mother
is
an
eccentric
poet
who
murders
a
man
for
rejecting
her. The
novel
tracks
Astrid’s
journey
as she
moves
from
one
foster
home
to the
next
.
Fitch
goes
on to
discuss
her
career
as a
writer
and the
genesis
of the
characters
in the
novel
. She
confides
that she
often
reads
poetry
before
she
writes
,
because
it
helps
her
set
a
rhythm
and a
pacing
to her
work
.
Notes
The book was made into a movie starring Michelle Pfeiffer and released in October of 2002.
