The Anatomy of a Disappearance: Thrity Umrigar on Mystery, Suspense, and “Missing Sam”.

Join the New York Public Library for the World Literature and Arts Festival at 53rd Street Library for a conversation with author Thrity Umrigar and Naheed Phiroze Patel about Umrigar's mystery novel, Missing Sam.
