EPISODE 637 - Jann Alexander - Unspoken - Historic Texas during the Dirty Thirties and beyond

About Jann Alexander
I'm an author, photographer, and artist.

My characters face down their fears, in novels that are as close-to-true as fiction can get.

I specialize in time travel. Read Unspoken, my best-selling novel and the first in my Dust series that stars historic Texas during the Dirty Thirties and beyond. Explore my photography featuring Vanishing Austin, Mother Earth, and Texana. Journey into the American southwest and Mexico, along the Mission Trail, as I capture the colors in my paintings and photos. ​

"Jann Alexander's blazingly alive novel Unspoken asks how do we keep a family intact? Especially during a time of upheaval and betrayal in the 1930s Dust Bowl? Here, in a story told by both a mother and her daughter, two people struggle to both understand their world and each other."

— CAROLINE LEAVITT, New York Times bestselling author of
Pictures of You and Days of Wonder

Upheaval, betrayal, estrangement, families lost and found, poverty, and homelessness, are the themes we wake up to in today's headlines. In the 1930s, the Texas Dust Bowl was no different — with one exception. Nobody knew how to fix air you couldn't breathe.
