	Description:		The Pulitzer Prize-winning playwright has written a debut novel that asks a provocative question: What if a woman claimed the right to a spiritual quest like men have done for centuries in literature? 'The White Hot' follows a young mother from Philadelphia who walks away from everything to find herself. She spoke with Tonya Mosley about her antihero April, her collaboration with Lin-Manuel Miranda on 'In The Heights,' and her mother’s spiritual gifts. Also, Maureen Corrigan reviews the mystery novel ‘Even the Dead,’ by John Banville. Learn more about sponsor message choices: podcastchoices.com/adchoices NPR Privacy Policy
