Welcome back, Therese Anne Fowler!

Some of you may remember Therese Anne Fowler from her last appearance at Unbound back in 2018. Then she participated in a wonderful panel about historical fiction with Christina Baker Kline and Martin Seay. This time she will be talking about her wonderful new novel, A Good Neighborhood. The new novel represents something of a radical departure from her previous, wildly successful books, but it’s fair to say that the pre-publication industry buzz surrounding her new work is the most rapturous yet. A contemporary tale, it asks big questions about life in America today—what does it mean to be a good neighbor? How do we live alongside each other when we don't see eye to eye?—as it explores the effects of class, race, and heartrending love in a story that’s as provocative as it is powerful.

THERESE ANNE FOWLER is the author of the New York Times bestselling novel Z: A Novel of Zelda Fitzgerald and A Well-Behaved Woman. Raised in the Midwest, she moved to North Carolina in 1995. She holds a BA in sociology/cultural anthropology and an MFA in creative writing from North Carolina State University.
