Jean Hanff Korelitz’s standalone novels span nearly three decades, from A Jury of Her Peers (1996) through The Latecomer (2022). Her books tend to focus on educated, upper-middle-class characters whose lives get disrupted by secrets, lies, or moral failures.
Several of these novels have been adapted for screen. Admission became a 2013 film starring Tina Fey and Paul Rudd, while You Should Have Known was the basis for HBO’s The Undoing. The Devil and Webster (2017) takes on campus politics at a small liberal arts college, and The Latecomer (2022) follows a family of triplets conceived through IVF and the unexpected fourth sibling who arrives years later.
