coming-of-age" ( San Francisco Chronicle) — f rom the author of the Pulitzer Prize and National
Book Award finalist The Great Believers A successful film professor and podcaster Bodie Kane
is content to forget her past—the family tragedy that marred her adolescence her four largely
miserable years at a New Hampshire boarding school and the murder of her former roommate
Thalia Keith in the spring of their senior year. Though the circumstances surrounding Thalia’s
death and the conviction of the school’s athletic trainer Omar Evans are hotly debated online
Bodie prefers—needs—to let sleeping dogs lie. But when the Granby School invites her back to
teach a course Bodie is inexorably drawn to the case and its increasingly apparent flaws. In
their rush to convict Omar did the school and the police overlook other suspects? Is the real
killer still out there? As she falls down the very rabbit hole she was so determined to avoid
Bodie begins to wonder if she wasn’t as much of an outsider at Granby as she’d thought—if
perhaps back in 1995 she knew something that might have held the key to solving the case. In
I Have Some Questions for You award-winning author Rebecca Makkai has crafted her most
irresistible novel yet: a stirring investigation into collective memory and a deeply felt
examination of one woman’s reckoning with her past with a transfixing mystery at its heart.
Timely hypnotic and populated with a cast of unforgettable characters I Have Some Questions
for You is at once a compulsive page-turner and a literary triumph.
