How exciting, with the Writer's Festival currently on in Sydney, Lionel Shriver is being interviewed by Richard Fiedler on The Conversation Hour this week - Tuesday I think.
I know that We Need to Talk about Kevin, certainly polarises people. However, her next book is just engrossing. A "Sliding Doors" conceit - the what if concept of a woman in a happy relationship being tempted to kiss another man - what happens if she did, and every alternative chapter, what happens when she didn't. Just fabulous. I couldn't put it down and definitely didn't want to go to work as it was going to interrupt my immersion in this wonderfully constructed and observed world. And I got my copy cheap at Big W.
