Jill McCorkle Crafts a Layered Tale of Love, Pain, and Family in “Hieroglyphics”

May 04, 2021

In this episode 206, we visit with New York Times bestselling author Jill McCorkle, author of “Hieroglyphics,” a heartfelt and intricate tale that weaves together the lives of four characters: Frank and Lil, a married couple who came together from the shared grief of losing a parent, Shelley, a single mother raising her young son in Frank’s former home, and Harvey, Shelley’s young son.

“Hieroglyphics” is a raw and meditative story of love, pain, and redemption, with a deep understanding of resilience and family bonds.

In a starred review, Publisher’s Weekly had this to say about the book, ““Engrossing . . . McCorkle finds an elegant mix of wistfulness and appreciation for life . . . Throughout, McCorkle weaves a powerful narrative web, with empathy for her characters and keen insight on their motivations. This is a gem.”
