Rebecca Makkai and Meg Wolitzer: Novelists on the Craft of Writing

This installment of “Conversations at the Newberry” features award-winning novelists Rebecca Makkai and Meg Wolitzer. In this event, Chicago author Rebecca Makkai (I Have Some Questions for You, The Great Believers) interviewed New York-based and New York Times bestselling author Meg Wolitzer (The Female Persuasion, The Interestings) about a life in books, her growth as an author, her film adaptations—including 2017's The Wife—and her new role as host of Public Radio's popular Selected Shorts podcast. This program also marked the launch of a new series curated by Rebecca Makkai and StoryStudio, which will pair major visiting authors in conversation with local discussion partners. Unlike bookstore or festival events promoting an author's latest book, these evenings will highlight the author's whole career, with a focus on the craft of writing. Perfect for readers and writers alike, each event will celebrate one author's work—a glimpse behind the creative curtain, a chance to ask questions, and an opportunity to mingle with other literary folk. You'll also be able to purchase books and have them signed. The event, generously sponsored by Sue and Melvin Gray and presented in collaboration with StoryStudio Chicago, was free to the public. Public programs at the Newberry are free and open to all.
