This week on Narrative North, I’m joined by Cindy Fazzi, a Filipino American author and former Associated Press reporter whose new novel Domingo the Bounty Hunter is as bold as it is human. We dig into how politics — especially through the lens of the immigrant experience — shapes art, empathy, and identity. Cindy shares her journey from breaking news to breaking fiction rules, and how she finds both meaning and mischief in the stories she tells. Pour yourself something good — this one’s rich, fearless, and full of heart.
