Novelist Heidi Pitlor, for many years the series editor of The Best American Short Stories, will be on South End Writes via ZOOM, Tuesday, September 8, at 7:00 PM to talk about her newest work of fiction, Impersonation. “A smart behind-the-scenes tour of the murky world of publishing, politics, and the good people who get caught in the cross-fire,” says novelist Chris Castellani (Leading Men). “Pitlor’s voice is witty and brisk, bringing warmth and light to questions of identity, independence and, yes, intellectual property. Who owns your stories? How much are they worth?” declares the New York Times Book Review.
The author of two earlier novels, The Birthdays, a Boston Globe bestseller, and The Daylight Marriage, a crime thriller centered on a failed marriage, which was optioned for the movies. Pitlor is also the editorial director of the literary studio, Plympton. Her other writings have been published in Ploughshares, The New York Times, The Boston Globe, The Huffington Post, and the story collections It Occurs to Me That I Am America: New Stories and Art, Labor Day: True Birth Stories by Today’s Best Women Writers. Heidi Pitlor lives outside Boston.
