Election

We're kicking off season 12 with a literary legend who doesn't just limit himself to the literary realm.

Tom Perrotta's novels, Election and Little Children, have been made into Academy Award nominated films.

And his books, The Leftovers and Mrs. Fletcher, were adapted into acclaimed TV series on HBO.

I have to say, The Leftovers was one of the most wonderfully weird and creepy stories I've ever seen, and I'm still thinking about it years later.

Needless to say, Tom Perrotta is one of my favorite writers, and he's a critical favorite.

He's highly acclaimed.

He's the best-selling author of 11 novels, including Election, Little Children, which were both made into films.

His novels, The Leftover and Mrs. Fletcher, were both adapted into HBO series.
