Michael Isaac Shokrian grew up an Iranian-Jewish kid in 1970s Los Angeles, learning America while searching for a place to belong. In this episode, we explore identity, immigration, and the outsider’s perspective through his novel American Playground, and why he went on to create The Thieving Magpie—a literary home for voices that rarely fit neatly anywhere.
