Makkai, Rebecca: I Have Some Questions For You

From the author of The Great Believers, an absorbing novel about a woman, Bodie, who returns to the Connecticut prep school she attended in the '90s to teach a summer school. Back then, a pupil was murdered. There was a trial, and a conviction, but Bodie is realising that it is entirely possible the real murderer walked free.Ninety-Five is an involving novel which confronts the fact that little has changed in attitudes to young women in the last twenty-five years. It's absolutely brilliant on sexism, racism, class privilege and entitlement, as well as being humane and a pleasure to read.
