The riveting new novel -- "part true-crime page-turner, part campus
coming-of-age" (San Francisco Chronicle) -- from the author of the
Pulitzer Prize and National Book Award finalist The Great Believers
A successful film professor and podcaster, Bodie Kane is content to
forget her past--the family tragedy that marred her adolescence, her
four largely miserable years at a New Hampshire boarding school, and the
murder of her former roommate, Thalia Keith, in the spring of their
senior year. Though the circumstances surrounding Thalia's death and the
conviction of the school's athletic trainer, Omar Evans, are hotly
debated online, Bodie prefers--needs--to let sleeping dogs lie.
But when the Granby School invites her back to teach a course, Bodie is
inexorably drawn to the case and its increasingly apparent flaws. In
their rush to convict Omar, did the school and the police overlook other
suspects? Is the real killer still out there? As she falls down the very
rabbit hole she was so determined to avoid, Bodie begins to wonder if
she wasn't as much of an outsider at Granby as she'd thought--if,
perhaps, back in 1995, she knew something that might have held the key
to solving the case.
In I Have Some Questions for You, award-winning author Rebecca Makkai
has crafted her most irresistible novel yet: a stirring investigation
into collective memory and a deeply felt examination of one woman's
reckoning with her past, with a transfixing mystery at its heart. Timely,
hypnotic, and populated with a cast of unforgettable characters, I Have
Some Questions for You is at once a compulsive page-turner and a
literary triumph.
