I have to admit that when I started reading “Sorrow”, I was annoyed that Joe, the hero, was such a loser. But as I got further in, not only did Joe start to grow on me, but I also came to appreciate the way Tiffanie DeBartolo wove important themes into this novel without being obvious about it, gently revealing the importance of art, nature and friendship, and the harm caused to men by our culture’s toxic masculinity.
De Bartolo is a 21st century writer, who uses all the tools at her disposal to, as she says, “connect my humanity with the humanity of the people reading the book.” “Sorrow” has an animated trailer, a Spotify play list, and a book club kit. I hope you enjoy this deep-rooted conversation.

Whoever uses the spirit that is in him creatively is an artist. To make living itself an art, that is the goal.
