Episode 7: A Conversation with Michael Barakiva, Author of "Hold My Hand"

We are delighted to have had the opportunity to speak to the incredible Michael Barakiva (he/him): author of the book "Hold My Hand," director, and fellow graduate of Vassar College. This episode is our conversation with him. He told us about some of the inspiration behind his book, aspects of his Armenian background, the importance of centering romance in a novel defined by its queerness, and so much more. Be prepared for some wonderful insights and gems of wisdom, as well as a healthy dose of laughter.
