Episode description
Author Meg Wolitzer brings readers deep into the lives of others. A feminist thread
runs through all of her work, including novels like “The Interestings” and “The
Wife,” but nowhere is the subject of power more deeply investigated than in her
newest book, “The Female Persuasion.” Campus assault, intergenerational feminism,
debate, mentorship and ambition make it an especially timely story. On January 24
2019, Wolitzer came to the Sydney Goldstein Theater to be interviewed by The
New Yorker’s Adam Gopnik.
