Podcast: BlogTalkRadio, “Who You Calling Old?”

January 6, 2015 By Catherine Gildiner

blog talk radio "who you calling old" program mastheadJoin us as we talk with author Catherine Gildiner who at age 12 moved with her family from her Niagara Falls home to a Buffalo suburb, leaving behind a family business, small town contentment, and the rebellious childhood chronicled in her first memoir, Too Close to the Falls. While her uprooted parents struggle to adjust, Gildiner stumbles in making new friends and edging into puberty. Her restlessness and a fundamentally outspoken and argumentative nature regularly catapult her further than simple teenage trouble, and she frequently fails at the standard American girlhood, often with comic results. The conflicts between the narrator’s individuality and conformity propel her into her first relationship at the same time that the seismic shifts in American society, culture, and politics hit home with ever-increasing force. Tune in as she talks with us about her life and the experience of living in the sixties.

Coming Ashore Reviews



"Gildiner depicts herself as a hard-headed, risk-taking young woman who spoke her mind and fully embraced life. For readers, following that life is an irresistible roller-coaster ride full of humor, wise insights, and poignant reflections."
- Publishers Weekly

"...much of Gildiner’s gift as a storyteller is her ability to imbue anecdotes with hefty doses of humour."
- Quill and Quire

"This is the third memoir I’ve read by Catherine Gildiner and I hope it won’t be the last. Although in the preface she says that this is the final book, I’ll continue to hope she changes her mind."
- Goodreads
