Writer Isaac Fitzgerald talks about his new memoir, a confessional which traces his journey from an at-times violent childhood in north central Massachusetts, to forgiveness.
WBUR's senior arts and culture reporter Cristela Guerra tells us four things we can check out this weekend, from a silent puppet show to readings of plays by local playwrights.
