The compulsively readable novels of Australian author Liane Moriarty are beloved – and bestselling – for their addictive and clever plots, compelling characters and keen observations. You may have even caught some of the filmed adaptations, including “Big Little Lies,” “Nine Perfect Strangers” and “Apples Never Fall.”
Her latest book, “Here One Moment,” takes place on a commercial flight, where a woman suddenly informs everyone of the date of their respective deaths. For six of the passengers, these dates are disturbingly soon, and it looks like the prophecies may be more than just a mad woman’s ramblings. The characters are faced with questions of destiny, free will and choosing how to live on limited time.
Moriarty will discuss the book during a visit to Kepler’s, in conversation with novelist Karen Joy Fowler (“The Jane Austen Book Club”). Virtual admission via Zoom is also available.
Sept. 9, 7 p.m., Kepler’s Books, 1010 El Camino Real #100, Menlo Park; $16.74-$57.69; eventbrite.com.
