Ruth Ware
Manage episode 365491596 series 42469
Do you know an It Girl? In Ruth Ware’s novel of that name, April has confidence, money, brains, friends, and good looks. This makes many people adore her, but it inspires hatred too. In fact, someone hates her enough to kill her.
Returning Book Club author Ruth joins Richard and Judy to explain why she wrote such a complex, fleshed-out murdered character, that is, why it was important to her that the reader felt her presence in the world would be missed. Ruth also talks about taking inspiration for The It Girl from classic thriller writers like Agatha Christie by setting the novel in a ‘closed circle’ – a privileged, walled Oxford University College.
