Author Meg Wolitzer brings readers deep into the lives of others. A feminist thread

runs through all of her work, including novels like “The Interestings” and “The

Wife,” but nowhere is the subject of power more deeply investigated than in her

newest book, “The Female Persuasion.” Campus assault, intergenerational feminism,

debate, mentorship and ambition make it an especially timely story. On January 24

2019, Wolitzer came to the Sydney Goldstein Theater to be interviewed by The

New Yorker’s Adam Gopnik.
