"Fear is a big component in what I do because I'm writing about time periods that I did not experience, and that's scary. And so, my biggest fear is that I'm gonna get it wrong. And, I have such a desire to get it right, to be as authentic as I can, and sometimes that's paralyzing." Author Ruta Sepetys discusses her book THE FOUNTAINS OF SILENCE on NPT’s A WORD ON WORDS.
