Books & Looks: Real Books for Real Readers was started as a podcast to supplement Blaine Desantis’ website, ViewsOnBooks.com, and expand into audio interviews with authors.
With Books & Looks, Blaine’s goal is to focus on real books that real people will read. At least half of the books he reviews are either new authors or unknown authors that many in the general public are unaware of. After a segment reviewing books or interviewing authors, Blaine ends each episode with a discussion of the movies and TV shows he is currently watching.
This Week’s Episode:
I was thrilled to have the opportunity to interview my good friend and author, Kevin Doherty, about his latest book, Landscape of Shadows. In this episode, we delve into Kevin’s thought process and ideas behind writing, as well as his extensive research on the unorganized resistance in occupied France during World War II.
This conversation offers a unique and fascinating perspective on the resistance movement and will leave you with a deeper understanding of the complexities and challenges faced by those who fought against the German occupation. Join us as we explore the hidden histories and untold stories of the resistance in this enlightening and engaging chat.
