The Immortalists: by Chloe Benjamin | Conversation Starters
The Immortalists, Chloe Benjamin’s newest novel, follows the heart-aching story of four siblings in the year of 1969. When the four siblings heard of a gypsy living near them in the Lower East Side of Manhattan that could tell when one would die, the siblings’ curiosity got the best of them. Hunting down this mysterious woman, each would soon be told the exact day each would die. With the news of their death dates hanging over them, each sibling soon comes to find how dangerous such knowledge could be while trying to figure out what they should do with the time they supposedly had left.
Chloe Benjamin’s second novel has already become one of The New York Times top ten best sellers as well as the #1 Indie pick. Benjamin’s first book, The Anatomy of Dreams received the 2014 Edna Ferber Fiction Book Award.
