Welcome back Bookends to another episode in our Debut Spotlight series where we shine the light on the freshest authors and their work! For today's episode we were joined by debut novelist of 'I Will Greet The Sun Again', the incredible Khashayar J. Khabushani.
We discuss his highly contested debut, how he can read multiple books at once, why basketball means so much to him, why his mother is such a huge inspiration and so much more, we hope you enjoy this conversation and we hope it encourages you to read his beautiful book so you can fall in love like we did.
