Celebrate Asian Pacific Islander Heritage Month with These Great Books
Ruth
Ruth asked Elinor Lipman:

Your first novel "Then She Found Me" was adapted as a movie. Which of your other books, if any, would you especially like to see on the screen, and why? Do you already have your ideal cast in mind?

Elinor Lipman I could make a case for several...it's tough out there, though, in Hollywood. I might say "My Latest Grievance." I truly never think about casting because I've had many books optioned (the first step) and only one produced. It's my pragmatic streak--I've found that thinking about casting, even when a particular book gets a nibble from Hollywood, is only daydreaming. I did love THEN SHE FOUND ME, which 19 years from option to screen! Thanks for asking.

Hi Elinor, I love your novels and have read every one of them. I was rather late in getting to Good Riddance, but I was wondering whether you got the idea for a certain situation in the book from the background of the current president of France?
