The riveting new novel, I Have Some Questions for You, is from acclaimed author Rebecca Makkai, known for her Pulitzer Prize and National Book Award finalist The Great Believers.
Bodie Kane, a successful film professor and podcaster, has tried to forget her troubled past that includes a family tragedy, four difficult years at a New Hampshire boarding school, and the murder of her former roommate Thalia Keith. Despite the highly disputed surrounding circumstances of Thalia's death and the conviction of the athletic trainer Omar Evans, Bodie avoids stirring up old memories and seeks to leave the past behind.
However, when Granby School invites Bodie to teach a course, she begins to question the details and flaws of the case that lead to Omar's conviction. Were other suspects overlooked? Is the true killer still at large? As Bodie delves deeper into the mystery, she realizes that perhaps she was not as much of an outsider as she once thought. In fact, she may have possessed crucial information that could have led to a breakthrough in solving the case.
A stirring and thought-provoking examination of collective memory, I Have Some Questions for You is a captivating page-turner that features unforgettable characters and a transfixing mystery. With Makkai's exceptional literary skill, this novel is both timely and hypnotic, making it a literary triumph.
