Jodi Picoult reads from and discusses her new novel, The Tenth Circle.
Picoult, the New York Times bestselling author of Vanishing Acts, offers in her new book a powerful chronicle of an American family. The Tenth Circle looks at the delicate moment when a child learns that her parents don’t know all of the answers, and when being a good parent means letting go of your child. It asks whether you can reinvent yourself in the course of a lifetime or if your mistakes are carried forever – if life is, as in any good comic book, a struggle to control good and evil, or if good and evil control you.
($26) Atria ISBN # 0-7434-9670-1. Please visit Jodi Picoult’s official web site as well.
