Amor Towles & Celeste Ng in Conversation

Acclaimed authors Amor Towles and Celeste Ng sit down for their first ever conversation, in Washington DC to celebrate the paperback releases of their bestselling novels, Little Fires Everywhere and A Gentleman in Moscow, both set to become major television series.
Little Fires Everywhere is a riveting novel that traces the intertwined fates of the picture-perfect Richardson family and the enigmatic mother and daughter who upend their lives. The book explores the weight of secrets, the ferocious pull of motherhood, and the danger of believing that following the rules can avert disaster. Both Little Fires Everywhere and Ng’s debut novel, Everything I Never Told You, were named Best Book of the Year by The Washington Post, NPR, People, and many others.
