The characters Nicole Krauss creates live on in the reader's imagination long after the last page is turned. Named by The New Yorker as one of the 20 best writers under 40, Krauss emerged as one of the most intriguing novelists of the last decade with the bestseller, The History of Love. Her latest novel, Great House, charts the journey of one tremendous desk as it travels through decades, exposing the memories of its owners, and their struggles to create meaning in the face of loss.
