Read and connect by joining our English Bookclub. Today Maureen Hosay talks about Rebecca Makkai's 'I Have Some Questions for You'.

Maureen Hosay is a PhD researcher in Literature and Translation Studies at the University of Antwerp and Ghent University. Her thesis deals with the translation of multimodal children’s literature. She is hobby collector and an avid fiction reader of mystery novels, contemporary fiction, and has a soft spot for experimental literature.

Film professor and podcaster Bodie Kane thought her boarding school years and the murder of her roommate were firmly behind her. That is, until she is invited to return to Granby school to teach a course, and the pull of the mystery becomes to great to resist. The case may be closed but Bodie grows increasingly suspicious as she reviews the evidence. Could this story have a different ending? Is she prepared to do what it takes to find out?

I Have Some Question for You is a true crime fiction novel that navigates the divide between the public’s – at times shameless – fascination for true crime and the real, far-reaching impact of a murder on a community. If you like Eliza Clark’s Penance, Jessica Knoll’s Bright Young Women, or Girl in Snow by Danya Kukafka, or if you are generally interested in true crime, I Have Some Questions for You may be your next read.
