Join CapRadio Reads host Donna Apidone and author J. Ryan Stradal to discuss his national bestselling novel — The Lager Queen of Minnesota.

Following the author interview, there will be live Q/A to pose your questions to Donna Apidone and author.

About The Book:
An homage to midwestern values and family drama, Stradal's story spans 50 years and shares the story of three women whose family splinters when Helen and Edith's father leaves their entire shared inheritance to the younger, more business-savvy Helen. As each woman faces their own hardships, the complexities in both character and family become exposed. We find the optimistic belief that people can change through their stories, and resolution can be possible even if it takes generations.

About The Author:
J. Ryan Stradal, like his characters, grew up in small-town Minnesota. Now living in Los Angeles, he is the author of two bestselling novels and a series of shorter writings that have appeared in publications such as The New York Times, The Wall Street Journal and many more. His short fiction has also been anthologized and named a finalist for the James Kirkwood Literary Prize.
