About this episode
Today’s episode features two new crime thrillers written by big names. First, Harlan Coben says he stopped in his tracks when Reese Witherspoon asked to collaborate on a novel. In today’s episode, the co-authors speak with NPR’s Mary Louise Kelly about their collaboration on Gone Before Goodbye . Then, I Love Dick author Chris Kraus took an autofiction approach to her crime novel The Four Spent the Day Together . In an interview with NPR’s Elissa Nadworny, Kraus describes the protagonist as “me at the moment of the story.” To listen to Book of the Day sponsor-free and support NPR's book coverage, sign up for Book of the Day+ at plus.npr.org/bookoftheday Learn more about sponsor message choices: podcastchoices.com/adchoices NPR Privacy Policy
