This recording is presented by Princeton Public Library. The author is joined by Amy Jo Burns to discuss her most recent release, "The Sequel," which continues the story begun in her 2021 novel "The Plot." Book signing to follow. About the Book (from the publisher): Anna Williams-Bonner has taken care of business. That is to say, she’s taken care of her husband, bestselling novelist Jacob Finch Bonner, and laid to rest those anonymous accusations of plagiarism that so tormented him. Now she is living the contented life of a literary widow, enjoying her husband’s royalty checks in perpetuity, but for the second time in her life, a work of fiction intercedes, and this time it’s her own debut novel, The Afterword. After all, how hard can it really be to write a universally lauded bestseller? But when Anna publishes her book and indulges in her own literary acclaim, she begins to receive excerpts of a novel she never expected to see again, a novel that should no longer exist. That it does means something has gone very wrong, and someone out there knows far too much: about her late brother, her late husband, and just possibly… Anna, herself. What does this person want and what are they prepared to do? She has come too far, and worked too hard, to lose what she values most: the sole and uncontested right to her own story. And she is, by any standard, a master storyteller. About the Author: Jean Hanff Korelitz is the author of nine novels, including "The Sequel," "The Latecomer," and "The Plot" (the latter two in development for film or limited series), "You Should Have Known" (adapted as HBO’s 2020 limited series, "The Undoing," by David E. Kelley and starring Nicole Kidman and Hugh Grant) and "Admission" (basis for the 2013 film starring Tina Fey). "The Plot" was featured on The Tonight Show as the Fallon Summer Reads 2021 pick. She lives in New York City with her husband, Irish poet Paul Muldoon.
