# 2023 National Book Festival: Talking About Crime with Rebecca Makkai & Sarah Weinman

Which crime victims' stories get told, retold and obsessed over? What if crime media were instead a catalyst for social change? Rebecca Makkai's novel "I Have Some Questions for You" examines a fictional, distant murder. Sarah Weinman's anthology "Evidence of Things Seen" features 14 essays about true crimes and asks readers to think about what justice looks like. Moderated by novelist Angie Kim.
