What authors are reading, hearing and watching in quarantine

The author of the ‘IQ’ detective series finds John Le Carré audiobooks soothing — but not Zooming with his brothers or reading Goodreads reviews.

In our latest quarantine diary, the author of ‘These Women’ digs ‘Blood Meridian’ but can’t get enough of Laura Ingalls Wilder.

The author, most recently, of “Interior Chinatown” opts for “Independence Day,” a slew of inspiring novels, “Thor: Ragnarok” and “Ozark.”

Anna Solomon, whose novel “The Book of V.” comes out next week, juggles writing, building rafts and book promotion in a void in our latest diary

The author of “Sweetbitter” juggles child care and promoting her new L.A. area memoir, “Stray,” reads poetry and takes solace in “The Office.”

The author of “We Need to Talk About Kevin” lives that perfect, self-improving quarantine life (or maybe gets drunk and watches British reality TV).

What crime novelist Laura Lippman is reading and watching in quarantine

The journalist has plenty of space in Alabama, but it still gets lonesome. Luckily there’s Larry McMurtry, Humphrey Bogart and Jerry Lee Lewis.

The author of “Nothing to See Here” enjoys BennY RevivaL, furniture-breaking wrestling moves and lots of books in his quarantine diary.

Thomson, the author of dozens of books including “The Biographical Dictionary of Film,” binges on “Ozark” and Godard but finds “L’Avventura” a drag.

In his quarantine diary, “No. 1 Ladies’ Detective Agency” author Alexander McCall Smith writes lyrics, reads Auden and watches “Brideshead Revisited.”
