  • Summary

  • In this episode of Complicated Conversations we welcome Marissa Stapley, the author of New York Times bestseller and Reese’s Book Club pick Lucky, to discuss her new novel, The Lightning Bottles, a story about grunge-era musician Jane Pyre’s journey to find out what really happened to her husband and partner in music, who abruptly disappeared years earlier. We chat with Marissa about the personal and musical inspirations behind this novel (which she calls the “book of her heart”); her exploration of themes around fame, female representation in music, and the complexities of public perception; the significance of art and mystery in storytelling; the impact of mid-career success; the role of astrology in character development and our shared interest in tarot; and the enduring influence of Khalil Gibran's The Prophet (which she hopes everyone will read again or for the first time!). We felt deeply connected to Marissa in this conversation - listen now to hear! Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
