Bruce Holsinger joins Carol Fitzgerald to discuss his latest novel, CULPABILITY, which is Oprah's Book Club pick for July and a Bookreporter Bets On selection. Bruce explains why he chose to explore AI and the decision to have each member of a family be culpable in a car accident involving an autonomously driven vehicle. The beach house that the Cassidy-Shaws retreat to is similar to the one that Bruce and his family enjoyed during the pandemic, and that peaceful setting kept coming back to him as he wrote. He also talks about the audiobook's narrators, Stacy Carolan and January LaVoy, and how they each played roles that served the book. And yes, Bruce walks us through what it was like to get "the call" from Oprah.
