Chicago Review of Books – “Because What in Life is Ever Clear-Cut?: An Interview with Kate Broad about Greenwich“

“I recently spoke with Kate about what makes Rachel so unnerving. During our conversation, we talked about how race and wealth play themselves out in the novel, what motivates her main character’s “good” intentions, how she went about writing a novel that raises questions instead of answering them, and why that was important. We also talked craft, specifically about genre blending and how she used a reminiscent narrator to move the story along and increase tension.”

Author Interview with Lacey Dunham (author of The Belles): “Kate Broad on her literary suspense novel GREENWICH”

“Kate Broad’s novel Greenwich is one of the best literary suspense novels I’ve read this year, tackling thorny issues of race, class, and sexual identity through two characters, Rachel and Claudia, who witness a horrific tragedy that defines the rest of their lives.

What unfolds is both a novel about what happened, and a novel about power and complicity, the ways stories around tragedy and trauma are shaped, and how our past choices reverberate throughout our lives.”
