A.M. Homes
The novelist A.M. Holmes knows how to transform tranquility into catastrophe. Yet her latest book, This Book Will Save Your Life, manages to reach a happy ending — much to the chagrin of some critics. Kurt Andersen talks with Homes about the surreal lives of her characters and her own memoir of adoption.
