Chuckanut Radio Hour with Kristin Hannah

For the second Chuckanut Radio Hour in February, Village Books is thrilled to welcome Kristin Hannah for her new novel The Nightingale. The Chuckanut Radio Hour, a recipient of Bellingham’s prestigious Mayor’s Arts Award, is a radio variety show that began in January 2007. Each Chuckanut Radio Hour includes guest authors, musicians, performance poet Kevin Murphy, Cascadia Weekly columnist Alan Rhodes, and episodes of “The Bellingham Bean” serial radio comedy, not to mention groaner jokes by hosts Chuck & Dee Robinson and announcer Rich Donnelly.
