Hats Off! to Lee Zacharias who was interviewed by Abigail DeWitt in Southern Literary Review. Lee's new novel is What a Wonderful World this Could Be (Madville Publishing, 2021). "I didn’t like the novels I had read about the ’60s," Lee says. "They seemed either short-sighted or to rely too heavily on signs of the time—the soundtrack, bellbottoms, peace signs, and tie-dye—to tell the story. I was more interested factual accounts and personal experience, even when my attitude differed greatly from the implied views of the authors."
