My interview with Caroline Kepnes, creator of the You series, on her latest Joe Goldberg book, You First.

We discussed (1) how she created a voice that's so electric and hypnotic, (2) what Joe Goldberg understands about people that allows him to manipulate them so well, and (3) the one thing that makes a character someone you root for, no matter how despicable they may be.

Order Mark's novel Bunyan and Henry.
