Tomorrow on KCRW's Bookworm: Glen David Gold, author of Sunnyside (Knopf, $26.95, 9780307270689/0307270688). As the show put it: "What a charming raconteur Glen David Gold is, with his anecdotes about the movies, theories about identity and celebrity, and knowledge of World War I. But as we talk, he brilliantly demonstrates their interconnections, how they fuse and diverge to make his new novel a coherent whole."
