Author of "Everything I Never Told You" and the newest, "Little Fires Everywhere" shares her favorites with us in the By the Book column feature in the Sunday, NYT.
A small piece of the interview is below.
NYT: Which classic novel did you recently read for the first time?
“The Age of Innocence,” by Edith Wharton. I’d read “Ethan Frome” in high school, but somehow missed this one. It’s a masterpiece. Despite being almost a hundred years old, it still speaks powerfully on the assumptions we make about each other, and our human failures to communicate our needs and desires.
If you need to reacquaint yourself with either title mentioned above, just click that link.
Happy reading!
