The Female Persuasion is the blockbuster novel from Meg Wolitzer, author of The Interestings and The Wife. It charts the course of women’s lives from the 1970s to the current day, in an expansive consideration of feminism and the intersection of the personal and political. It also confirms Meg’s status as one of America’s most astute novelists, whose admirers include Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie and Jeffrey Eugenides. Meg meets with Angela Ledgerwood to discuss this timely, witty and on-target new novel.
