Author Bryan Charles, discussing his novel, Grab on to Me Tightly as If I Knew the Way

An interview with author Bryan Charles, discussing his debut novel, Grab on to Me Tightly as If I Knew the Way. Charles's hilarious novel follows Vim Sweeney, an 18-year-old in suburban Michigan growing up in the early ‘90s, fumbling his way towards an understanding of girls, his stepfather, the dynamics of his band (read: how to steal his drummer’s girlfriend), and the path to his uncertain future.
