Karen
Joy Fowler
Fiction
Karen Joy Fowler is the author of several novels and short
story
collections, including The Jane Austen Book Club, a novel
widely
popular with readers and critics alike. Alice Sebold calls
the book "a luxuriant pleasure," and Michael Dirda writes in
The Washington
Post Book World, "Karen Joy Fowler creates a
novel that is so
winning, so touching, so delicately, slyly witty that admirers
of
Persuasion and Emma will simply sigh with happiness." Fowler's
earlier work is well-known to fans of literary science
fiction and
fantasy, and she has won many awards, including a Nebula
Award from
the Science Fiction and Fantasy Writers of America. The
Jane Austen
Book Club was recently adapted into a major motion
picture starring
Lynn Redgrave, Maria Bello, and Hugh Dancy.
