I'm not sure specifically as I haven't read it. But generally, it could be about a body that is the center of some mystery, investigation, or complex situation within the story.
I don't know. There are many novels with various titles, and without more information, it's difficult to determine who the author of this particular one is.
Maybe its unique storytelling. It could be that the author has a way of presenting the story around the body in question that's different from other novels.
The fact that it's an NYT notable book is a great sign. 'The body in question' as a title makes me think it could be centered around a legal case perhaps, where the body in question is evidence. It could explore themes like justice, truth, and the human condition in relation to this body. The novel might be full of twists and turns, and the characters could be complex, each having their own motives and secrets related to this central 'body in question'.
I can answer many questions related to novels, such as:
- Which genre of novel is the most popular?
- What was the process of writing a novel?
- What are the common topics and plots in novels?
- How were the characters in the novel shaped?
- What are the common choices of narrative perspectives in novels?
- What are the language styles and rhetorical devices of the novel?
If you have any other novel questions, feel free to ask!
