#26 Domenica Ruta on Memoir & the Writing Life

I chat with The New York Times Bestselling memoirist, novelist, essayist and professor Domenica Ruta about writing and reading.

We talk about the importance of hanging out with your friends like you did in high school and about Domenica’s bestselling memoir “With or Without You.” Domenica grew up the working class daughter of a drug addicted mom and went on her own journey to sobriety and wholeness after a harrowing childhood. Domenica is a freakishly good writer and has important things to say about politics, publishing, class, domestic violence, female desire, and so much more. I hope you enjoy this conversation as much as I did. You can find Domenica Ruta on Substack Domenica Ruta 🧿 and her books are here.
