Jennifer Egan is an author.

The Woman in White
Wilkie Collins
It’s one of the best thrillers I’ve ever read; a Gothic novel that is also a whodunnit, published in 1859 and featuring one of the great literary villains—a charming, menacing bird lover.

The Candy House
Jennifer Egan
Is THE CANDY HOUSE "dystopian," or full of "winners"? I leave it to my treasured readers to decide. The fun of fiction is that every take is correct.

Run and Hide
Pankaj Mishra
Pankaj Mishra transforms a visceral, intimate story of one man’s humble origins into a kaleidoscopic portrait of a society bedazzled by power and wealth—what it means on a human level, and what it costs. Run and Hide is a spectacular, illuminating work of fiction.

Ten Arguments for Deleting Your Social Media Accounts Right Now
Jaron Lanier
Lanier’s provocatively titled book may in itself appear divisive, but the tools for unity are abundant within this brief and lucid volume. Chief among them is Lanier’s reminder that strife and division...are encouraged, incited, stoked and rewarded by the online platforms...

The Woman in White
Wilkie Collins
The Woman in White by Wilkie Collins is a stay-up-all-night page-turner from 1859 that rivals any thriller written since: heavy on brooding gothic atmosphere, rife with plot twists, and featuring one of the great literary villains.

Country of Origin (Revised)
Don Lee
An un-put-downable thriller (and first novel!) involving a young American woman’s disappearance into the criminal night-world of Tokyo. Lee’s fiction has been exploring the complexities of race and ethnicity for decades, and he gets better with every book.
