All Sides with Ann Fisher - 10:00 AM - Plain and Fancy: The Rise of Amish Literature
We've all heard about the success of "Fifty Shades of Grey," but a new type of romance lit is flying off the shelves these days, and its main characters aren't young urbanites- they're Amish. In this hour, we'll talk to the authors of some popular "bonnet rippers" about the appeal of the genre, its inherent controversies, and why the audience for these books isn't Amish at all.
Guests:
Valerie Weaver-Zercher, author of Thrill of the Chaste: The Allure of Amish Romance Novels
Karen Harper, author of Finding Mercy
Amanda Flower, author of A Plain Death
