What is the future of fiction in an age of globalization? In The Global Novel , acclaimed literary critic Adam Kirsch explores some of the 21st century's best-known writers--including Margaret Atwood, Haruki Murakami, and Elena Ferrante--and how they each have a way of imagining the world that sees different places and peoples as intimately connected.
