In this episode of 92Y Talks, the esteemed author sits down with New York University's Forum on Law, Culture, & Society director Thane Rosenbaum and United States Attorney Preet Bharara to reflect on the novel's cultural relevance almost 30 years after its debut. The conversation was recorded in front of a live audience on October 27, 2015 at New York's 92nd Street Y.
