I Have Some Questions for You

by Rebecca Makkai

Viking Press

   Bodie Kane is no longer the young, insecure student at a small boarding school in the wilds of New Hampshire. She returns there as a visiting professor with deep misgivings about her time then and now - teaching a film class to students who want to look into the murder that happened during her senior year. 

   There is the murder, the possibility that the wrong person is in jail, and the question of sexual improprieties between a teacher and his student, or perhaps students. Over all there is the question of memory, and memories - how each individual may be remembering what happened in very different ways. And whether any justice was served.

   Makkai works serious questions of the treatment of women, professionally and sexually, into the novel without losing the intrigue or momentum of the novel.
