Fans of Jean Hanff Korelitz’s THE PLOT will rejoice at this sequel, performed with mesmerizing skill by the wonderful Julia Whelan. Host Jo Reed and AudioFile’s Michele Cobb discuss this story of a lethally dislikable character, Anna, and how Whelan narrates this twisty tale. Anna is a monster of ego, incapable of sympathy for anyone but herself. She is also brilliant, fearless, and like most psychopaths, contemptuous of others. This causes her to underestimate them, which leads to potentially fatal mistakes. Whelan’s achievement here seems like a little miracle, relentlessly compelling and wonderfully satisfying.
