Episode Description
Gazelle (Knopf) Where will the magical Rikki Ducornet take us next? In Gazelle, the Arabian Nights recur, as a thirteen -year-old girl wanders in 1950's Cairo, reveling in the scents and exotic perfumes that lead to her unusual career as an anatomist of mummies. Ducornet leads us deeper into the realm of the senses than ever before. (Note: This interview will be pre-empted on KCRW by special programming.)
