In Conversation with novelist Gavriel SavitJournalist, historian, and professor Mark Oppenheimer shares his highly anticipated biography of one of the world’s most treasured literary voices, showcasing a life as triumphant and inspiring as the stories she crafted. To know the name Judy Blume is to know and love literature. For more than fifty-five years her work has done something revolutionary: it rewired the world’s expectations of what literature for young people can be—frank, candid, earthy, and unafraid to show the messier sides of humanity. But little is known about the real woman behind the iconic persona, and the unlikely journey of her literary ascension, until now.
Mark Oppenheimer will be in conversation with novelist Gavriel Savit.
Books available from Left Bank Books.
