Alice Sebold is an American author known for her novels The Lovely Bones and The Almost Moon, as well as her memoir Lucky.
The Lovely Bones became a bestseller and was adapted into a film.
Lucky, which detailed Sebold's experience of being raped in college, sold over a million copies.
However, the man convicted of the crime, Anthony Broadwater, was exonerated in 2021 after spending 16 years in prison due to a misidentification by Sebold.
As a result, Lucky was withdrawn from distribution by its publisher.
Sebold's work often deals with themes of trauma and survival.
