NEW STEW: Watch September’s Episode of Book Stew with Author Maya Alexandri

WILMINGTON, MA — In the September episode of Book Stew, Host/Producer Eileen MacDougall interviews world traveler and author Maya Alexandri.

Maya has ridden horseback across Kazakhstan and Kyrgyzstan, accompanied only by a guide. She has lived in China, where she learned Mandarin Chinese,  and Kenya, where she has petted a leopard. When Maya was asked by her agent to write “the next Gone With The Wind,” she changed the setting and the timeframe and became immersed in the writings of Isak Dinesen (Karen Blixin), the heroine of “Out of Africa”.

To see how it all turned out, watch the episode below:
