Ann Napolitano

Our guest on today's episode of the B&N Podcast is the novelist Ann Napolitano, who joins us to talk about her heart-stopping new novel Dear Edward.  When his survival in a terrible accident transforms a twelve-year-old boy's life forever, Edward Adler sets out on a confrontation with challenges both more subtle and more daunting -- grief, confusion, and the strangest kind of fame. We found Ann Napolitano's richly told, emotionally devastating novel one of the most compelling books of the season, and we asked the author to join B&N's Miwa Messer in the studio for a discussion about Dear Edward and how Napolitano brought its characters to vibrant, unforgettable life.
