Duration: 60 minutes
Gabrielle Zevin has developed a reputation for writing seriously thoughtful literature with unabashed entertainment value. Her latest bestseller, Tomorrow, and Tomorrow, and Tomorrow, is about the quest to create perfect worlds though technology and the imperfect nature of even our most treasured friendships. In conversation with Maureen Engel, Gabrielle reflects on how fiction both echoes the world we live in and imagines how we would like to live.

Gabrielle Zevin
Gabrielle Zevin is the internationally bestselling and critically acclaimed author of The Storied Life of A.J. Fikry; the prizewinning children's book, Elsewhere; and several other novels. Tomorrow, and Tomorrow, and Tomorrow is being developed into a feature film by Temple Hill and Paramount Studios, and the movie version of A.J. Fikry, for which Zevin wrote the adaptation, is currently in production in Massachusetts. Zevin was born in New York and is the daughter of a Korean mom and an Eastern European Jewish dad, who both spent their careers working in computers. Her dad wanted her to work in computers, too, and this book is probably as close as she will ever come. She is a screenwriter, an occasional critic and a graduate of Harvard University. Zevin currently splits her time between Los Angeles and Stardew Valley, where she owns a farm on a once rocky plot of land.
