![]() ![]() Perhaps that’s what Amazon is banking on: This Friday the site launches its latest crop of pilots, and among them is an adaptation of The Interestings directed by Four Weddings and a Funeral’s Mike Newell and starring Can’t Hardly Wait’s Lauren Ambrose and 10 Things I Hate About You’s David Krumholtz (okay, they’ve all done plenty in the interim, but The Interestings is set in the ’90s, and so is this article). A few years down the line, I retain only the joy of reading it, not so much the specifics of what made the novel more interesting to me than, say, tacos, the beach, the boardwalk, or my boyfriend. The Interestings is about a group of teens who meet in the 70s at an artsy summer camp called Spirit-in-the-Woods. Aside from the reception (and, if we’re being honest, that too is blurry for its own reasons), The Interestings actually is most of what I remember of that weekend, so firmly was my head stuck in my paperback copy of Wolitzer’s book.īut like so much contemporary fiction, The Interestings proved easy in, easy out. Thats the story of Jules Jacobson, the heroine of Meg Wolitzers newest novel. I read Meg Wolitzer’s best-selling novel The Interestings on a trip to San Diego for a wedding a few years ago. ![]()
