New novel imagines how memories can be accessed and reviewed by ourselves and others

Imagine a beautiful cube in which you can store all your memories, allowing access to them whenever you want. But there is a tradeoff. Others can access it, or, in a sense, you. Jennifer Egan has dreamed up this nonexistent technology in her new novel, "The Candy House." Jeffrey Brown talks to the Pulitzer Prize-winning author about her latest work of fiction for our series, "CANVAS."
