New York City
Over the course of 21 years and 12 books, Sara Paretsky has established herself as one of the most compelling writers in American crime fiction. Her books have always been notable for their fast-paced, complex plots; three-dimensional characters; nuanced social explorations; and of course, their beloved, strong-willed heroine, V. I. Warshawski, the “private eye with the sharpest tongue and hardest head in Chicago” (The New York Times Book Review). Blacklist, her most daring novel yet, is something special–a story about secrets and betrayals that stretch across four generations, and which has particular resonance for today. A novel as passionate, complex, and powerfully entertaining as its acclaimed heroine, Blacklist is a stunning achievement.
Sara Paretsky will be interviewed on-stage by Leonard Lopate, host of WNYC’s daily talk show, “The Leonard Lopate Show,”.
