The characters Nicole Krauss creates, and the emotional journeys we experience with them, live on in the reader's imagination long after the last page is turned. Named by The New Yorker as one of the 20 best writers under 40, as well as receiving international acclaim and numerous awards, Krauss emerged as one of the most intriguing novelists of the last decade with the international bestseller, The History of Love. Her latest novel, Great House, charts the journey of one tremendous desk as it travels through decades, exposing the memories of its many owners, and their struggles to create meaning in the face of inevitable loss. This event is in conjunction with BookFest 2012.
