Susan Choi’s novel “Trust Exercise” takes place in a high school for the 
performing arts in an unnamed southern city. But the subjects examined, 
including consent, power and memory, are universally relevant. “Trust 
Exercise” won the 2019 National Book Award for fiction, and Jeffrey Brown 
spoke with Choi at November’s Miami Book Fair about why she decided to set 
the story in a high school.
