Claire Messud's new novel, The Emperor's Children, was long listed for the Booker Prize three weeks BEFORE it's official release, which says something, I think, about what kind of novel this is. The Emperor's Children follows three college friends, now all 30 and living in New York in the months before the 9/11 attacks. It is a smart, provocative novel about the loss of innocence and what comes after childhood. Messud's writing is beautiful and her story is compelling.
A nice gift for the readers on your list.
