Actor, producer and director Griffin Dunne‘s memoir “The Friday Afternoon Club: A Family Memoir” tells the story of the Dunne family and how they were devastated by the 1982 murder of his sister Dominique.

The book is out in paperback next week. Here’s an excerpt from a conversation Dunne had with Here & Now‘s Emiko Tamagawa last June at WBUR’s Cityspace.
