Nicole Krauss, author of the international bestseller The History of Love, reads from and discusses her critically acclaimed new novel Great House, a powerful, soaring novel about a stolen desk that contains the secrets, and becomes the obsession, of the lives it passes through. “This stunning work showcases Krauss’s consistent talent…. Much like in Krauss’s The History of Love, the sharply etched characters seem at first arbitrarily linked across time and space, but Krauss pulls together the disparate elements, settings, characters, and fragile connective tissue to form a formidable and haunting mosaic of loss and profound sorrow.” – Publishers Weekly, starred review
($24.95) W.W. Norton ISBN #978-0-393-07998-2. You can visit Nicole Krauss’s official web site as well.
