Author Gabrielle Zevin discussed her recent novel, video games, and the many meanings of green at BookPeople yesterday.
Tomorrow, and Tomorrow, and Tomorrow
Speaking with moderator Szilvia Molnar , Zevin discussed her 2022 novel, which follows two young aspiring game developers Sadie Green and Sam Masur as they navigate adulthood and their friendship. While designing Sam and Sadie, Zevin said she focused on why people choose to play games. She also placed pieces of herself in the characters, something she avoided doing in earlier novels. Sam shared her Korean and Jewish background, and said she felt a connection to Sadie’s experiences with sexism in the gaming industry. “I thought of fiction writing as a mask that you could wear, and I wrote people that were as far away from me as possible,” Zevin said.
