CANCELED: Claire Messud and Joyce Carol Oates

This event has been postponed due to inclement weather. A new date has not yet been set.

Claire Messud’s new novel is The Woman Upstairs. “It shows Messud at the height of her considerable powers, articulating the quandary of being alive and sentient, covetous and confused in the twenty-first century,” wrote Daphne Merkin. “An extraordinary novel, a psychological suspense story of the highest sort that will leave you thinking about its implications for days afterward. Joyce Carol Oates’ new novel is Carthage. “Her talents and interests and strengths have never found comfort in restraint,” wrote Richard Ford. “She’s sought, instead, to do it all—to face and brilliantly, inventively transact and give shape to as much of experience as possible.”
