I enjoyed reading Expats a lot as a former Eurocrat from Luxembourg. I feel like you would be an outstanding dystopian writer. Have you ever thought of writing a dystopian novel with a technology focus? Just wonder. Regards
Chris Pavone
Thank you very much! I feel like it's incumbent on novelists to pick which sort of book we want to write--which sort we love, which sort we think we're in a position to deliver something special--and then try to create the best possible version of that novel, one that's uniquely ours, and to keep at it, working on different variations, trying to get better and better. After four novels, I definitely feel like I'm still working my way toward something; I think PARIS is my best book, but I'm also confident that my next one will be better. I haven't yet arrived at my current destination, so I'm not yet contemplating heading off in another direction.

"The Expats" reads like a movie. It was really easy to imagine the book being turned into a film. I understand CBS Films bought the rights. Do you have any information about the progress of this project? It'd be great to actually get to see all the places the book describes. Thank you.
