“With a firm grasp of the delicacy and complexity of human relationships” (Boston Globe), Jodi Picoult has delivered no. 1 New York Times bestsellers that are renowned for marrying controversial topics with nuanced characters and pitch-perfect descriptions of suburbia’s fraught and precarious underbelly. Her 23 novels include House Rules, Handle with Care, Change of Heart, Nineteen Minutes, My Sister's Keeper, and The Storyteller, as well as the YA novel Between the Lines, co-written with her daughter, Samantha van Leer. In Small Great Things, Picoult tackles race, privilege, prejudice, and compassion through the story of an African American nurse and a white supremacist couple’s baby.
