Notes -
Thanks! Had heard about The Mandibles but never read it. [This comment from Shriver is exactly the kind of thing I’m seeking: “Having, like the rest of us, gone through the whole 2008 financial debacle I thought I had plenty of material (for a novel set in a dystopian economic near-future). My reading on what happened in 2008 is that we dodged a bullet. I feel as if that bullet is still whizzing around the planet.”]
Feel like I should be taking a fresh look at her whole body of work. (We Need To Talk About Kevin was told from pov of mother of a school shooter. For some reason I never picked it up.)
