| 7/16/23 |  Frey & King: A Million Little Pieces & Parched | In this episode, Jim Foster shares his thoughts on the publishing scandal surrounding James Frey's memoir "A Million Little Pieces" and why a memoir by Heather King entitled "Parched" is more meaningful surrounding the subject of alcoholism and addiction, especially considering the fact that many things written as personal experiences in Frey's memoir were later found to be exaggerated or completely false. Book stores later recategorised Frey's memoir as fiction instead of non-fiction. This discussion took place on a 2006 episode of "Conversations On The Coast with Jim Foster" originating in San Francisco, California. Photo Credit: Robert Costa | — | ||||||
